Well, given that it looks like there is a Hot Rod in the pipes, it looks like this line may continue at some point in the future.

I for one, would really like to see some SUVs in the line. Since they have a working relationship with Toyota, they could easily use the 4Runner or Landcruiser and get some different vehicles into the line.

Some characters that this would work well for:

Iron Hide
Ratchet
Trailbreaker
Hoist

Maybe even Inferno or Grapple would work.

Also, the Acura RSX mold was barely used. How abut a pink RSX named Arcee?

Yes this is a freakin great idea. Make all of these and they have all the primary G1 characters covered by this line.

Takara/Hasbro, make this happen!

[Gutter Bunny]

and i still think a 350z or G35 would make a great Bumblebee considering we cant get a VW

i'd also love to see them do some older vehicles. the early 90's fairlady/300zx, baldwin motion chevelle, yenko camaro to name a few...but that'll never happen.

Soundwave = Aston Martin

Tidalwave = Hummer

Black Corvette = Meg

[Leonardo]

I have to say I would not buy an Alternator Megatron. MP Megatron is a fine commander for my Decepticon Alts. If he was a really well-executed tank, maybe I'd consider it, but even then I think I'd pass.

as much as i love vettes...pls pls pls hasbro. No more vettes.

tracks-blue
swerve-red
ravage-black

not to mention the binaltech counterparts of ravage and tracks(blue and yellow)

I think thats enough vettes.

[Bonger]

I agree, no more Vettes.

This line has focused on G1s only so far. So I doubt anything non G1 will make it in. Thank goodness for that.

However, there are the above mentioned missing characters. Megs was never a car, so IDC about him, and the Classics Bumblebee fits in with thwe Classics line extraordinarily well, so I'm cool with him too.

I would actually really love to see that! Although I would've preferred it for Silverstreak and his bros, as per IDW comics, but we already got them.

I'd get an Alt Megatron, even thoug I already have MP-05. As long as they do him up right and he looks cool, I'll buy it. I am collecting Megatrons, after all. That said, Alt-Prime is far from satisfactory, however I really want the Nemesis version, as I think he's a good reincarnation of RiD Scourge.

I was thinking cyb. Meg.... like the Batmobile....
Stingray

[kirbenvost]

But they unfortunately don't do old cars...

icic, i would gladly welcome a transforming stingray into my collection even with the surplus of vettes(i happen to collect diecast vettes also)

Although, if by some miracle they did start doing older cars i would still prefer seeing the baldwin motion cars(chevelle specifically...love that car) and the yenko 'maro

As Bumble Bee? I kind of see BumbleBee as more of a Daewoo.

[Exodiatron]

well as i said before they need more 'cons. so with that in mind they should first use every existing mold available that was not used 3 times to flesh out the decepticons. personally i want to see these made
-a black mazda as bombshell
-a red mustang for one of the stunticons(breakdown I think)
-of course they could do the frenzy repaint(which would probably end up a convention exclusive)
-the scion in black as soundwave
-also they could do a two pack of motorcycles and make one wreck-gar and the other the protectobot. (sorry forgot his name at the moment


But seriously with all the characters leftover from G1 there is no reason why they haven't repainted each mold 3 times and fleshed out the cars.

So much potential yet such narrow minded focus.

personally i hate scions...they look like a toaster on wheels. That being said i would prefer not seeing soundwave turn into that. I would even welcome another repaint of the ram in blue before the scion. but hey, thats my opinion.

[Overcracker]

wasn't there a rumour about a Cadillac Megatron. I think the rear of a Cadillac CTS would work great for his Chest. I for one would like to see that.

I'd also like to see a new van mould for Ratchet and Ironhide.
maybe a Ford E-250 would work.

[Dclone Soundwave]

I would like to see Soundwave as a military communications truck. If Laserbeak or any of the Cassetticons were included, I'd have to say they would be accesories that fit somewhere on him in vehicle mode. Let's see, Megatron has to be a tank for sure, he can't be anything else other than a that, a gun, or a T-Rex/Dragon. I'm not too much for the whole Energon/Cybertron alt mode idea. We have Shockwave, whom I still have to obtain. I would like to see (And I know this is a long shot) Roadbuster. He is my favorite Wrecker other than Ultra Magnus. For one more Decepticon, I would love to see Motormaster.

[mattyc1007]

dont know what i would call it but my bro would like to see them make a official merc 190e or something in that class also a alternator inferno for me would be swell

And just why couldn't he be anything else? I seem to recall alot of fans felt the same way about the tank at first. Then, even more so about the t-rex, dragon, etc. They could make him a flippin miata if they wanted to...and fans somewhere would appreciate it.



somewhere...

[For Gondor!]

I hope they consider bigger vehicles for some of the more prominent characters like Megatron and so on..it'd be expensive but seeing him and others as big trucks would be very interesting.

[Immortal Starscream]

whatever they make, we need more decepticons. they said ironhide and ratchet, or vans in general would be too big. so i sa, put ironhide up as a MP liner.

they could pump out some sedan as runabout, and repaint it as runamuk. maybe do the new thunderbird as one of the stunticons.

[Bonger]

Doing the Decepticons justice through this line has been more miss than hit.

The autobots are easy, they were all cars anyway. Hence I would like them to just finish off with the autobots.

For the 'cns, they should finish off the Stunticons, and then think about concentrating the MP line on the cons.

That way, between the two lines, the forces will balance out in this scale.

My 2 cents.

[loomdog32]

I would have really like to see some of the movie characters as alts (they should already have the license, so why not make a scale licensed model toy?!?)
