It's kind of a long way away...but let's talk about it anyway! It's the Transformers Dark of the Moon toyline...unfortunately the last movieverse toyline ever. But I think we've got so much to look forward to.
As history shows, usually a short time after the main characters of the movie cast are released, we get many new movie-esque representations of G1 characters that do not appear in the movies. This being the last movie toyline, I think Hasbro would like to give us some memorable characters to end the movieverse continuity. Who do you think will show up?

Last? lol, not if it makes money.
Anyway, I think Wreck Gar and the Junkions would be a good fit for movieverse.

Aside from Arcee pretty much all the 1986 characters have been untouched. Hot Rod, Kup, Perceptor etc. There's no Ultra Magnus. None of the Dinobots have been touched, even if they turned into something non-dinosaur-y.

Runamuck / Runabout, the various Throttlebots, innumerable Micromasters and Pretenders, there's a WEALTH of names, etc, that could still be used. Heck, we may even see a Sky Lynx, though I doubt it.

Could: loads - most of the Autobot Cars, the Dinobots, Rodimus, Ultra Magnus, Springer, Galvatron, Cyclonus, Scourge, and really any of the base-bots.
Will, in Pure, Complete, Uncorrupted Form: one - Shockwave. Maybe. But if MB and company get him right, all sins will be forgiven.

I'd personally like an...
ULTRA MAGNUS.
Hand him over Hasbro! You've held him hostage long enough.

I'd like to see Prowl.
He was a major character in Defiance, the ROTF prequel and he was originally meant to be in the films except they thought it would be a nice twist if the cop car was a Decepticon, so we got Barricade.
A head remold and repaint for Barricade would be acceptable or just go slightly out there and use RID Prowl. The Autobot Brothers scream Movie look to me.
There's still a few Seekers they didn't give us toy wise.
I still think Desert Brawl should have been called Armourhide.
Maybe Breakdown could be repainted as Sideswipe and Sunstreaker. I know there's already a Sideswipe but Arcee had a few very different looking toys over the Movie lines, as did Dead End.
Repaint Strongarm as Brawn or Hound, even Swindle.
Repaint Clocker as Hot Rod. I bought a custom and it really works. Be nice if they replaced the clip on guns with a detachable windshield/spoiler to make the car seem more like G1 Hot Rod that also doubled as an arm mounted shield for the bot mode.

Definitely Prowl. Too bad they were going to put him in the first movie but some guy had the stupid idea to make him an evil bot and turned out to be Barricade...still a good character though.
A lot of you mention Hot Rod/Rodimus. Remember we still don't know who the red Ferrari 458 Italia is.

I would have really liked a bigger springer. His little legends as cool, but a full size one would have been awesome.
