One thing that bothers me is the fact we've had more Autobots than Decepticons in the terms of Voyagers. The Autobots have Springer, Sandstorm, Rhinox (even if he's a Maximal, he's an Autobot descendant, so it still counts!), and Whirl. Decepticons have had Blitzwing and Doubledealer. Hopefully some of the items from that leaked product sheet of Generations stuff will yield more Decepticons...

Sky High, Rotorstorm, and Windmill all seem like decent repaint/remold ideas

Though Rotorstorm's going to need more than a new head to look good. At least some new hands too.

Rotorstorm would be good though the fact that he is also blue might be a problem since I would think HasTak would want a repaint that looks significantly different.
Oh wait! Over-Run would work.
I get way more relevant search results for "Ovelon". Not a legit phonetic translation? Is there a sub of Dorvack anywhere online?bvzxa wrote:Whirl was originally the "Oberon Gazette" from the Armored Trooper Dorvack toyline

And I brought up Convertors because Maladroids have been mentioned in official TF fiction, so homaging Chopper and Wheels would make more sense than their original Dorvack mecha incarnations. Convertors still rules so hard that someone needs to channel the spirit of Carl Macek and edit Dorvack, Galvion, and some tinted Macross footage into a proper Convertors series. It could even end up being a better continuation of Robotech than anything Harmony Gold's attempted over the last 12 years.

I think he means like "Mode 2.5", the gerwalk mode is more like the copter with legs (and without arms).

Wow, it's like there aren't enough random assholes on the internet.

Jerks.
It'll more than likely look better than this. You know those photographers, they can't be bothered with how to transform something properly.
