Since we've already found KO Henkei replica Starscream, Ghost Starscream, Thundercracker, Skywarp, and Sunstorm, I think it would be cool to have the coneheads in KOs next. I don't have Ramjet and I can't find him cheap anyway, so I think it would be cool.
What do you guys think?

It would not surprise me in the least. Judging by what I've seen, they have access to the molds, so it's only a matter of time.

Not that I support KOing of legitimate hasbro colourschemed characters, but I'd love to see some more interesting/unique colourschemes.

I'm still hoping for a Hasbro re-release/slight repaint of Ramjet, but as Mkall says, it'd be cool to see some new takes on them. Maybe in the style of the pre-release catalogue images of the G1 toys we saw recently?

They probably will, but I hope they don't. I've always thought the crackheads coneheads looked a little sucky.

I'm more into the Starscreamesque Seekers than the coneheads. Maybe it's because the vast majority of generic Seekers were modeled after Starscream, but the coneheads never struck me as part of that clique, even though they really are.

How's this for variety?

For those who have doubts about their quality they have drastically improved the overall QC. I believe in their forums Mike does a demo of some of the new gold seekers and the silver chrome seekers. Plans for Koneheads are there as well..I think if you search for them you can find some clear seeker conheads...

Only KOneheads I'd be interested in at this stage would be something that I could use as troop builders. I've got the Henkei versions of SS, TC and SW and plan to grab half a dozen of the purple KOs to go with them, already got 6 U Acidstorms that will serve as troops for the Rainmaker KOs when they become available and am just in need of troop builders for Cl Ramjet and Botcon Thrust and Dirge to lead. If nothing suitable comes up on the KO front in the next 6 months or so I might resort to using Gen Thrusts as conehead troops but I'd really prefer a less character specific colour scheme.
