What can Hasbro do next for the Universe line?

Recommended Posts

You already know his name will be Swerve right?

Swerve is a truck, like Gears, not a redeco of Tracks. Road Rage was the only redeco of the Tracks mold, and Road Rage was a femme too. So much the better.

I know, but... Tracks repaint

 

Not to mention, Archer has said before that the Swerve name would be used for red car repaints. Basically what I'm saying is, if they do do a Road Rage looking redeco, it's most likely going to be just some guy named Swerve. Not that it would hold back your fannon.

 

Personally, I'd like Skram, Windbreaker, or somebody a little more surprising.

And when has Archer said that all red car redeco's were going to be named "Swerve"? I don't buy it. Secondly, Road Rage's deco is different from even Alternators "Swerve", at least in robot mode. Road Rage shares the same head as Tracks, and is blue where Tracks is white (helmet, wings, missile launchers). Alternators Swerve is gold where Alt Tracks was white/silver.

This was around 03-04 when Archer said it at OTFCC. It was off the cuff, but hey, every Swerve since then has been a red car repaint (except for the 2007 Aveo, but it was red). Don't have to buy it, it's hearsay. Believe it or not if you want. My point isn't that it's exactly the same, but the Tracks redeco that looked like Road Rage (you know, red corvette)in the states was Swerve, whom I would figure we'd get most likely. Besides, Road Rage doesn't seem like a name that would pass US trademark easily.

Let's wait and see if Tracks will be repainted into Swerve. But I am thinking Dead End Now there is also the possibility of Lightspeed. However Hasbro has been taking the old Micromasters and creating Deluxe and Voyager figures. Tread Bolt, Flak, Stormcloud and Countdown. So here are a few micromaster possibilities Motorhead, Road Handler, and Trip-Up.

All those sound like good options for the mold.

As far as G1...

 

Brawn (always top of my list)

Huffer

WheelJack

Tracks

Warpath

Gears

Thundercracker

SunStorm

Soundwave

 

Obviously Huffer can mean a small mold tweak repaint to Pipes.

Tracks could get a repaint and head chage to WindCharger.

Brawn, repaint and head chage to Outback

Well, you're in luck. Some of them are getting toys, namely Tracks and Soundwave. As for repainting Tracks into Windcharger, why? The two look nothing alike. If you're going to redeco the new Tracks mold, it's gotta be as Road Rage. She was a redeco of the original G1 Tracks.

 

Windcharger is also getting his own scout. It looks like he turns into some form of Charger. And he is awesome. There is going to be a repaint of Tracks with a new head but time will tell as to what character it'll end up being (I vote Road Rage but I doubt that name is available).

Well, if Hasbro doesn't make a Road Rage from the Tracks mold, I will.

 

Word.

 

No Beast Wars love? I know Cheetor and Dinobot's molds were kind of sub-par, but that still doesn't mean we can't ask for more.

 

Personally, I would love to see the following appear down the road. (Most deserving in bold.)

 

Beast Wars

 

- Waspinator

- Inferno

- Rattrap

- Rhinox

- Tigerhawk

- Tarantulas

 

 

 

 

I have much love for Beast Wars but would love to see TM2 more than anything. A newer version of Debth Charge maybe? Tigerhawk would be cool as well as Rhinox. In Tigethawk I'd love to see something like a Tigatron and Airrazor combining to Tigerhawk. Something totally amazing!

 

I need a Rhinox. Badly. After all these years he has the worst toy in relation to his in-show character model (and hes just a bad toy). TM Rhinox doesnt count, I want one show accurate damnit! Same thing with BM Jetstorm.
