Movie toy substitutes

Hello fellow Seibertronians!

A long time ago it seems, I was looking for a movie-verse stand-in for Hound. Someone suggested Dune Runner to me, and ever since he's been my Hound. I've since expanded a bit on this collection, using other Scout-class figs as stand-ins and I was wondering if anyone else does the same.

For reference, my two other stand-ins include:

Sunspot as Laserbeak (he does have a decent "vulture" mode that is far better than the lame Gerwalk one)

Scattorshot as Pipes (I can't believe they didn't just call this guy pipes... IMHO it's an almost perfect match!)

Any others out there? :D

I actually go the other way and have used some movie line toys as Classics.

I used to call my Classics Mirage, Blurr, because of the similarity. Not until I PULLLED FROM MY MEMORY BANKS THAT THEY WERE BOTH IN THE SERIES did I start calling him Mirage yet again. I pronounced it "Marraige" too. So stupid I was back then.

Um...Uhh...No, I call all of my Movie collections by their package names. :D

I call the 07 voyager Starscream Triggerhappy. It's a good figure, but it's a terrible representation of Starscream.
