what 1987-1990 transformers do you want to see get updated super
poseable new molds?

I'm curious to see if my want list is similar to everyone else's

(1)Supreme sized fortress maximus. it would be sold with about 8 A,E,C
Minicons.
(2)Sixshot,voyager,ultra or leader size. delete a vechicle mode & give
it 2 beast modes.
(3)Quickswitch,voyager size.
(4)doubledealer,voyager size
(5)powermasters dreadwing & darkwind,2 deluxe size toys.with minicon
powermaster engines.
(6)Thunderwing,super poseable in pretender shell & super poseable
inner robot. basic sized inner robot,voyager sized pretender shell. i
just wanna see a old school pretender super poseable.
(7) another pretender,decepticon only,maybe skullgrin or that samurai
guy.
(8)TF Victory deathsauras,as a voyager,with 2 minicons that form the
breastplates
(9)2 voyager sized TF victory starsabre & victoryleo,that combine in
both bot & vechicle modes.
(10) 2 voyager sized tank & jet that form the super robot known as TF
Takara masterforce 1988 overlord.
(11) return of the TF G-1 action masters line as a very small sub-line
like robot hero's. basically more sleeker G.I Joe sized G-1
Transformers that are beyond super poseable.

ALL OF THEM.

VictoryLeo. Dude. We all appreciate your enthusiasm, but seriously...
You are constantly carrying on about super-poseable new molds of old
characters.

WE GET IT. You value poseability. And that's cool -- lots of people
(including me) love super-poseability, especially when applied to
revisitations of older characters. But my God, man, you sound like a
broken record.

Personally, these days I tend to feel like Hasbro is skimping if a new
TF toy ISN'T super-poseable. Given that TFs are robots, hiding joints
isn't hard; given that they transform, they have a lot of joints built
in anyway. That being the case, whenever I find a less-than-super-
poseable TF nowadays, I feel totally gypped.

(This is, of course, one of the reasons I dislike almost the entire
Armada toy line.)

If your thing, VictoryLeo, is getting modernized revisitations of
classic characters, just say that. I think it's pretty much assured
that any modern revisitation of a classic character will be super-
poseable (Classics 2.0 Sunstreaker is a good example). So bro, if
that's what you're all about, just say it like that.

And for Pete's sake, we all know you want a new Sixshot.

Grebo, my man, you forgot "beyond" in that super-poseable.

D'oh! You're right. How COULD I have forgotten. :-)

Really? Are you *really* curious? If so, then go back and re-read the
other threads you started EXACTLY like this one damn-near every week for the
last several years and read the occasional response. I can assure you that
none of us have thought about it as often or in as great detail as you have,
so our answers are largely unchanged.

But fine, here's my complete joke of a list:
Wheelie: Because there's no hate like Wheelie hate
Goldbug: Take the suckiest version of Bumblebee and make it decent for
posing him getting stepped on or kicked.
Daniel: See Wheelie, and Goldbug for that matter. Plus, he never got a toy,
so he's a good choice.
Wreck-Gar: Actually deserving a new toy. The only serious choice on the
list.
Topspin/Twintwist: Fred needs something new to hoard :)

The sad thing is... I know what *your* list is without even reading the
post.

I would absolutely cherish a Universe Wheelie toy, especially if it
came with a working slingshot.

Eh. I'd sooner see one of the other Throttlebots like Rollbar or
Wideload get a turn to shine.

I think we have a better chance of seeing a Sari figure first.

Don't forget about the upcoming Animated version.

These would rock, especially if Twin Twist's drills could spin.

This question bores me. What modern Transformers would you like to see
get faux-G1 brickish modes, and be retroactively inserted into G1
continuity?

1. Vector Prime
2. Hot Shot
3. RID Megatron
4. Lockdown (note that he could happily have an enslaved Targetmaster
or Powermaster, and it would fit his personality really well)
5. Black Arachnia
6. Sky Byte
7. Movie Barricade

Gustavo!
