so it wouldn't surprise me to get a repacked Scorn next year, along with maybe a voyager Slug and Strafe
Scorn and Slug would be better served as Leaders to fit in scale with Studio Series Grimlock, though. Strafe might be doable at the Voyager price point, as I think he's a bit smaller than the others on screen. Hasbro and Takara have shown they can make large Voyagers in this line already.
As for mold reuses, I hope we see repaints of AoE Deluxe Drift and TLK Deluxe Crosshairs. Those molds are pretty much fine as is, but they need more screen accurate paint jobs. Drift needs a color scheme closer to the almost black dark blue of the movie and his upcoming helicopter figure for the Studio Series. Crosshairs needs the improvements of the TLK remold with the paint job of the "Autobots United 5-Pack" figure. He's also a bit of a "Cogman" opportunity in that he too was scarce to non-existant at U.S. retail, so this is a chance for many fans to get that mold for the first time. Maybe some slight retools of AoE or TLK Voyager Hound with premium paint jobs would do too. Neither movie had a perfectly detailed (in terms of sculpt) representation of Hound, but each comes close in different ways and could easily be fixed with just a bit of a redesign, like the arms of AoE Hound or the feet on TLK Hound, for instance. And, of course, let's get a good Evasion Mode prime with a proper rusty deco. None of the attempts made by Hasbro or Takara Tomy got the rusty look anywhere close to right the first time around.

I would argue that Slug should get a voyager. They have made some large Voyagers, and Scorn is a perfect figure, so they shouldn't mess with perfection. I doubt a Slug would sell to the general public at $50 too.
I would also argue that TLK Hound was near spot on. The colors needed to be darker, but he was pretty much there. I don't know what you mean by his feet, they were very cleverly done and he can hold poses. Crosshairs does need a better paintjob, but I wouldn't buy him a 3rd time. And I wouldn't mind a break from Optimus for a bit. He's about to get his 4th toy of the line. A rusty Prime as a Selects wouldn't be a bad idea though.

Honestly I feel if he was a total loss I’d still be happy just to have that rifle. It’s my absolute favorite Prime rifle, ever.

I assume you mean what can be purchased at retail right now, and my answer would depend on your location. I also assume you are interested in any Studio Series jetformers.
My first and foremost recommendation would be the Studio Series Starscream, in either deco. While I myself prefer the 2007 version, there's also the ROTF version that may be more easier to find now.
Studio Series Thundercracker is also great, but you might have a harder time finding him, as he is an exclusive. You can order him online right now, and I hear you can find him in stores in the UK so far, but he is worth the hunt in my opinion.
If you are willing to wait, there is a KSI Boss figure coming out soon, who is a redeco of TLK Nitro Zeus, and like Thundercracker, is a great figure.
If you are willing to wait even longer, there may be a jet mode Shatter coming out, but right now, it's just a rumor.
As for Autobots, there's only Leader class Jetfire, who I hear is amazing, so there's that to consider
That's all for jets, but I hope this has helped you
