Rated X wrote:Take Omega Supreme off the list and replace him with Scorponok. The titans should be actual city bots. Im good with Platinum Omega Supreme because unlike any future "titan class" figure, he actually scales properly in cartoon scale. Would I like him to look more G1 ? Sure I would. But Id be horrified to see how they screw up scale like they did with Devastator and Predaking. Oh hes a fan favorite so lets make him bigger than the other combiners...dumb f**ks at Hasbro. Smh.
Ironhide/ratchet ? Really ? While the Henkei figures werent perfect, they are still awesome and fit the bill just fine. And while im not a fan of them, CW Ironhide and UW ratchet are just fine for those younger collectors who werent even born when the G1 cartoon was out. And if you want to go all out vintage toy look (with a chug touch) pick up Botcon 2005 ironhide and ratchet. Those two are awesome figures, possibly even cooler than the Henkei. (And im not even going to get into Animated, RID, and Bayverse incarnations) So no we dont need a yet another set of these two overused characters. Let them take a well deserved break already.
Now lets jump to the positives. I totally agree with you on voyager shockwave. However I need that space gun. Or at least turn it upside down and call it a submarine lol.
If he is going to transform into a stupid tank again then im good with the recent cyberverse release from walgreens. (Dammit shapeways guys make some knees for hom already)
Apeface and Snapdragon....a must ! I totally agree. How could they make an entire line of voyager class triple changing headmasters and leave out these two? Somebody from hasbro needs to get pimp slapped for that move...
Deathsaurus....well he is a very obscure character (to most american collectors) and he already has an awesome Botcon 2005 figure, however I wouldnt be opposed to a new mold for him.
Actually, Deszaras/Deathsaurus/Dezzer Russ was the same size as Star Sabre, who was only just shorter than Liokaiser. So yeah, Leader class would be ideal for him.Keep it voyager though. Im sick of leader class figures because they are not in scale.
In what cartoon was any decepticon commander almost 3 times the height of his troops?
With the exception of a very few characters such as Jetfire, ginrai, ultra magnus, and rodimus prime (scale is debatable on him) the whole "leader class" scale seems to be pointless.
Now on to some figures that really need an update;
Flywheels
Crosshairs
Pointblank
Sureshot
Headmaster Jrs
Autobot targetmaster jrs (other than Scoop)
Firecons
Deluxe insecticons (other than chopshop)
Reflector (with a leader unlike Botcon version)
An actual G2 Defensor (why not)
A downsized Devastator that scales with CW (why not)

The very cartoon that Deathsaurus came from. He was a gigantic combiner-sized Decepticon leader just like Overlord and BlackZarak were. Ever since Fort Max and Scorponok came along, Autobot and Decepticon leaders all got much bigger in size over in Japan after 1987.Rated X wrote:Deathsaurus....well he is a very obscure character (to most american collectors) and he already has an awesome Botcon 2005 figure, however I wouldnt be opposed to a new mold for him.

Wolfman Jake wrote:I still don't understand the appeal of the BotCon 2005 versions of Ironhide and Ratchet beyond the novelty of the original toys' "weapons sled" components. Those head sculpts are FUGLY. The robot mode proportions are odd. The overall size of the figures is small, even compared to today's deluxe sized figures.

The remaining Deluxe Insecticons...
DJD set.
Leader class Scorponok.
Titan class Omega.

Nope. Just a big scorpion. He and Fort Max have traditionally been non-giant, slightly-larger-than-average-sized dudes in the comics. Only the cartoons had them be gigantic like Metroplex and Trypticon.-Kanrabat- wrote:Sabrblade wrote:A lot of people really like Comics Scorponok better than Cartoon Scorponok.-Kanrabat- wrote:Leader Scorponok?

Do Classic Marvel Comics Scorponok can become a city?
