I was just thinking about the generations windcharger mold... who'd want to see that retooled as a classics/generations/rts Barricade? I do... that is all.

I think G1 Tailgate would be more likely, since they share the same basic mold.

Sounds cool. I personally think Cybertron Downshift would make an even better Generations Barricade. He would have made a better Prowl than that crappy 2008 mold, but it's kind of too late for that.

Sorry...mini-rant.

Yeaa but thats the obvious answer . I was just looking at my Decepticons and I don't own a single race/sports car Decepticon.... reason being that all my Decepticons share a different scale in vehicle mode than my autobots; the vehicles generally being for a smaller sized 'human'.

Which is why I want some scout class Decepticon race cars, and Barricade would be neat since the mold already looks like a modern muscle car. I would get Breakdown, but he doesn't come with a gun. Can you give him one at all?

Please rant, this thread is all about ranting. Is cybertron Downshift even a good tf? I found the chest in bot mode to be too big and ugly...

But G1 Barricade is a race car...

I'd like to see him repainted as Black Jack and given a head remold so we could get Movie Barricade but with a more G1 face.

I agree with JelZe, Tailgate would be more likely.

Yea, I guess I was thinking of a mix between movie barricade/classics barricade... Movie alt mode, classics styling. Yea, I see he used to be a kart, so it wouldn't be accurate to G1, kinda like a slice down the middle. Tell ye what would be super sexy, is a WFC barricade... shame they ended the wfc figures.. but hey theres supposedly a WFC2 in the works, hopefully new figures then too.

Not a bad idea, but seems like someone sort of already beat em to it:
