Adventure Override is the chest component for my PotP Inferno Combiner. The colors work well on that one. However; Yes a G2 Defensor would be great.

I am a big fan of the escalation aspect of Transformers. The evolution of the Cybertronian conflict. From Scouts and mini vehicles, to Multiformers and Planet Bots.

But what is the next step? The Planet Bots can't really advance from what they are. Given in most media, they are Planet sized due to housing the essence of gods. Not as Robots in Disguise. But what of the City Bots? Naturally Scorponok and Fort Max made the break from being essentially a plot device, to characters in their own right. I'd like to see similar for Metroplex and Trypticon. For them to be something other than transport or a base.

The only "Transforming" Action Master! Some kind of new Legacy figure would be nice. A Commander Class Decepticon, perhaps?

Turbo Master was one of 4 Transforming "Action Master Elites"

https://tfwiki.net/wiki/Action_Master_Elite

His design is basically an homage to Bruticus. While some action master characters have received updates in the Generations line, I'm not sure how well the Elites would translate since 3 of the 4 already have solid representation in the Generations line (sans the fugly colors).

Windmill being the only all new character could probably suffice as a deluxe or voyager update/retool of an existing helicopter Transformer.

Indeed. It was only due to Transformerland recently having one for sale that I even remembered the Elites existed. I quite like the idea of the basic aesthetic elements of a Gestalt being represented in another figure. Reinforces the mass produced concept that I like. The Elites definitely belong in this thread though.

The closest match I could envision for mould to use as a template for a new Turbo Master, would be something along the lines of Incinerator ala Bayformers.

Oh yes, as a Bayformers mould. Some tweaks would have to be made to it's engineering to bring Turbo Master more in line with non-Movie designs. But it would have to feature the original colour scheme too.

The chances of we getting this are low, since he didn't transform while looked like this, but it would very cool to get this version of Hot Rod

I too would really want this

In a similar vein to BTTF, Ghostbusters and Top Gun. I'd love to see TF X James Bond. Each car transforming into their respective Bond Bot.

Dang.
I want that too.

At least his very first and most iconic car.

At this point, the one Transformer I really, really hope happens is a new Voyager Class version of Bayverse Ratchet. I've never been a big fan of the Studio Series Deluxe, it never sat right with me that the only toy Bayverse Ratchet has had in Studio Series is an extensive retooling of a now twelve-year-old Deluxe that wasn't that great to begin with. The design really deserves an updated Voyager class toy in my opinion. There is the MPM of course, but I don't collect Masterpiece.

I'm also low-key hoping for a re-release of Studio Series Bayverse Ironhide with his Dark of the Moon weapons, Buzzworthy Bumblebee would be a fine place for that. But I have the Ironhide from the 2007 Movie 15th Anniversary box set, so even if that doesn't happen I still have the mould in my collection.

Another low priority to Hasbro, but this can be fun:

In 2014, Grimlock appeared in this orange and silver color scheme in most of the toys and tie-in merchandise






So a cool way to reutilize the Studio Series Grimlock mold, would be to use these colors with a toy accurate head.

Indeed, this could be an easy repaint for SS Grimlock. He wouldn't have a different head, realistically speaking, but it could be done.

Also, the a repaint into the good ol' G1 colors while we're at it.

Grimlock looks great in these colors, I think Hasbro should use it more.

That Lotus would be sweet. A crossover line with all the iconic vehicles from TV and movies would likely bankrupt me:

KITT
The A-Team van
Smokey and The Bandit Trans AM
The General Lee (yeah, no chance in hell)
Magnum PI's Ferrari 308 (An updated Overdrive)
Herbie (an easy Bumblebee repaint)
Keaton's Batmobile (actually, a full line of the Batmobiles alone would be sweet)
Speed Racer's Mark 5
Airwolf
Blue Thunder
The Munster Mobile
Chitty Chitty Bang Bang

Sorry, I'm late to this party. I just found this thread.

Anyway, I'd like to see a REAL Liokaiser - a six member team with chest mounted sidekicks, not a Skyreign recolor.

I'd also like to see a CW-sized Monstructor, not a recolored Core-class Volcanicus. No Pretender shells necessary.

I'm kinda in an awkward place right now with collecting. I'm tired of the same characters over and over, but nothing new is really speaking to me.

Just like with Bond. Having each Batman transform into their respective Batmobile would be pretty wild. Some ala Conroy's Animated Batman would be relatively straight forward. Christian Bale's Batman into the Tumbler however. Would require either a lot of added bulk or a hollow shellformer.

I dunno. The Tumbler also held the Batcycle, so presumably that could be some form of two-member combiner. It could become Anne Hathaway's Catwoman.

That could be interesting. It would certainly help fill out the Tumbler if it consisted of two bots.

Meanwhile,











How about some bots of these things?
Technically the OG Fuzors. The Trans-Organics from Dweller in the Depths. I think most are even only a Beast Wars figure retool away from existing anyway. The Dweller itself would have to be the largest of the figures. Commander or Leader Class?

You've got a two for one (very apt for the line) in the Tarrasque. The D&D/pop culture version and the traditional French mythological version. Personally I prefer the latter. But there is always room for both.

Beast Wars Fusors should have a Renaissance in Legacy like Beast Wars in Kingdom. Then we may have more classic monsters like this.

As we've discussed before the problem with bringing Fuzors back is they are so incredibly context specific. Sure Silverbolt, Quickstrike and technically Tigerhawk, can easily be brought back as Legacy characters (no pun intended). But the rest of them...
It's not like they can be handwaved as another "distant colony" IE IDW Maximals. They are literally protoform malfunctions.

That's why they were so fun.

Too bad the only possible fusors are the show characters and their repaints.

Don't forget the Blentrons in BW Neo.
