i would like to see ironhide or ratchet, coz they didnt look like their cartoon version compared to the toy.
jetfire / skyfire would look nice also. i just want to see him as a different toy / mold rather than a re-colored version of a macross robot.
soundwave would be too easy. shockwave would look good also.
i got lots more but these are the top ones i want to see.

I'd rather have 'em Classics instead.

Yeh, what this is is a discussion on a discussion board. They tend to break out every now and then. Deal with it
Erm, I can't think of anybody I'd like an oversized, overpriced toy of, TBH.

Flywheels.
New material was on my Christmas list. None of you bastards got me any. You've only yourselves to blame.

the discussion would be better if we give and receive straight answers. but if you want to branch out, make sure you answer the question first.

Some of us aren't interested in Masterpiece toys -> don't really want any. That's also a reply to your question.
I'd also prefer to see smaller and cheaper versions rather than see Takara focusing their efforts on Masterpiece line.

Skywarp, and i imagine its quite likely given the repaint factor.

Yeah, what Osku said. I'm happy with Classics because they're articulate representations of classic characters, and most importantly, CHEAP. I don't wanna spend hundred bucks on every toy.
But since you are asking...Victory Saber. Don't ask me WHY, because I don't know either. Star Saber is just someone I love to hate and hate to love...

MP Wheelie? With hyper-annoying voicebox lifted from a talking Elmo doll. In fact, why not just make "Tickle Me Wheelie?" Gotta call the patent office now...

Well they could get at least 1 repaint out of an Ironhide MP, or if they did a slightly smaller MP Bumblebee, the potential for repaints on that is through the roof.

great job with that warpath MP !
I'd love to see Ironhide/Ratchet next, because the originals look like they belong in the new movie!
Devastator would be cool, but I fear they would just scale it down like they did with starscream!

I think there is a 100% chance of Thundercracker and Skywarp happening in the near future. They are probably the reason Starscream was developed before Megatron - they're canon repaints that people will buy.
Actually, I'd wager $5 that one or the other will come out in the second half of this year.

I don't mind the Jet repaints. But I sure hope they don't paint MP Megatron purple and call him Galvatron
Maybe we'll see an ultramagnus complete edition........

Soundwave or Grimlock. Jetfire is a bit redundant as the 1/60 and 1/48 valkyries are more than enough to satisfy any fan. Ratchet and Ironhide are both easily converted into alts, as is Bumblebee. With Soundwave they can finally do justice to the character by offering him a concrete and articulated robot mode with cassetes in scale, and they can simply go nuts with Grimlock, having minimal restrictions.
