Even better:
Transmissions Podcast wrote:5. They are confirming the rumor of a Titans Return Deluxe Hot Rod heard from other sources, very G1 looking. Could share some Chromedome engineering/transformation, but it's a new mold
That'd be excellent
Honestly I think part of it for me is not so much that we need a new Hot Rod (though I'd love to be able to grab a better one than we already have for retail price), but just that it wouldn't settle right for me to have a line that's partly a celebration of a movie, have a new Galvatron... but have no Hot Rod/Rodimus
Now! A more direct response to your question... I do agree with another poster here that Weirdwolf would make an awesome Carnivac remold. Especially since I didn't like the Pretender gimmick, but I loved a lot of the characters and I am so down for integrating the aspects of the pretender shell into the actual transformer (like ROTF Bludgeon - I still want that figure so bad)
I think it goes without saying that we should totally get a remold of Skullsmasher into Optimus as a reference to that one Season 2 episode where the 'cons turned him into an alligator. They can even re-use PM OP's head for it
Aside from that... mmm... I can't think of too much else, honestly. It was way easier to come up with ideas for CW remolds/repaints lol. I'm sure there's some 1988 characters I'm forgetting; I tend to remember almost all the characters from 84-86, half of the 87 guys, and then just the ones that stick out for one reason or another from the years until beast wars.
