If the Alternators and the Binaltech series continued, which characters should they release? What kind of cars should be used? Any repaints?

i dont know what figure it would be, but id like to see a nissan used. I'd prefer a 300zx but considering they prefer using the newer models i could live with a 350z

You're right, they don't have any Nissans yet. A pity

what about Cadillac Megs? Haven't heard much about that lately. I guess if BT were to come back I'd like to see:

Runabout and Runamuck as Black/White Eclipses
Cliffjumper/Bumblebee as Yellow/ Red Lancer EVOs
A diecast version of KISS Rodimus
Blurr as a Nissan 350
The rest of the stunticons as other cars.
The insecticons remade as BT's, w/Triple Change between Car, Bug and Bot. It wouldn't be that hard if you think about it.

Besides the obvious repaints, rumble as frenzy, and Mirage as Hotrod/Rodimus Prime, I'd like to see Soundwave and Blaster, not sure which car though. Oh, and Bumblebee and Cliffjumper as a VW Beetle, but we know that isn't going to happen! :-x

How about Perceptor, Kupp, Hoist, Trailbreaker, Inferno?

Roadbuster as a HUMMER?

I would like to see more Jeeps, not Wranglers mind you but other's... A new Grimlock as a old M-175 Jeep.

How about Brawn as a LandRover?

Wasn't there some plan a while back to make Alternator Megatron an M-1 tank? That would have been cool. I'm on board for Runa bout and Runamuck, certainly.
Oh, and when they repaint Rumble as Frenzt, what about Soundwave as a car carrier a la RID Magnus, so Rumble Frenzy and Ravage could dock inside him?????

That Megatron M-1 Tank color guide was a hoax. Secondly, the Cadillac Megs was announced, but cancelled some time later.

And why is there a Trailbreaker in every thread such as this? People, for the last time, Swindle was supposed to be Trailbreaker. Just repaint him black

Have I mentioned the name "Trailbreaker" is out of Hasbro's reach? C-Overhaul was to be called Trailbreaker, to tie in with "Leobreaker". Sure, call me a party pooper

Sad-ass Alternator Prime should be repainted and given a towline on the back, and called Hoist.

As far as other vehicles, I will keep dreaming about an 85 Citation called Cliffjumper.

I'm glad to see you back Mr. Party Pooper. Are the rumors true that you are a recently married man? If so, congrats. So I take it that your vote is to repaint Swindle as Trailbreaker.

Ironhide/Ratchet, Runabout/muck would be my choices.

Dead End, maybe?

I'd like to see Kup! (Chortle.)

Well we haven't done this for a while.
First we oughta catch up with Japan: Red Alert, Blaster, Hot Rod. The obvious Frenzy repaint too. I also wouldn't mind bringing the Seekers Stateside as the long forgotten "Larger non-automobile" Alts that were mentioned.

If there is a Caddy-tron out there I'd like to see it.

I'm kinda hung up on using the Dodge Nitro to Produce Soundwave, Ironhide and Ratchet. I just think it'd look good. The idea of a Humvey could make for a great Warpath as well as Onslaught and Brawl.

I also want to see what the Ford Fusion could do with Runamuck and Runabout.

...and this would be my Ultra Magnus:

Soundwave, Ironhide, Ratchet, and maybe the Stunticons

how about the basic alt OP frame fully retooled to a military Landrover as Roadbuster?they`re STILL being made and put into service...the retool could then be someone like say...Crankcase.

How about a slight remold of Ravage to make Steeljaw.

My favorite/dream car (and color of it). I'm starting to really like Ultra Magnus, and even though it wouldn't fit his character even slightly, I'd love to see him as a Cerulean Blue Nissan 350Z.
