I have a dream that Hasbro will start an in scale collectors line that re-imagines the characters from the G1 cartoon with modern functionality and give me the same feeling that Masters of the Universe Classics gives me. So I've been thinking, we already have a handful of figures that are perfect or nearly perfect. So what figures do you consider to be perfect or that almost there proof of concept figure?

 

for me:

MP Optimus Prime -> shrink it down

MP Megatron -> shrink it down

MP Grimlock -> shrink it down

MP Hot Rod/Rodimus -> shrink it down

Classics Hound -> more accurate frontend

Classics ravage

Classics Cyclonus

Modded KO Soundwave(frenzy_rumble) -> shrink it down

Jizai Wheelie

jizai powerglide

Classics Seekers

Generation Jazz

more realism on all fronts

 

however here is a list

 

MP Grimlock, grow taller, he should be taller then MP Optimus Prime

Binaltech Wheeljack Perfect

Warbot Defender Perfect Springer

Articulated Star Convoy

BW Depth Charge with only 2 legs not 3

RiD Galvatron perfect

Buster Optimus Prime perfect

except the classics seekers arent really as good as they could do. The mold is dated and not that posable.; My two cents,.

:agree

but the seeker mold is close, it could be improved but it is proof of concept

Isn't this basically what the Classics/Universe/Generations figures (the new molds at least) have been? Anyway, my picks would be:

 

Autobots: Pretty much the C/I/G figures with some modification

Classics Prime with G3 trailer

Classics Magnus with City Commander armor

MP Grimlock (and before him, Energon Grimlock - didn't like the Classics version)

Alternity Bumblebee

Classics Cliffjumper (just so B & C have different forms)

Classics Rodimus (possibly with the upcoming FP addon), or Ti Rodimus Prime

Legends Wheelie (he's supposed to be small, after all)

Warbot Defender Springer

PCC Huffer

Cybertron Red Alert as Ratchet (I don't like the Universe Ratchet/Ironhide mold)

Cybertron Smokescreen as G1 Smokey

Universe Inferno as Red Alert (at least until Gen Red Alert hits my area)

Energon Downshift as Wheeljack

Red/blue Leo Prime as Victory Leo

Generations Laser Prime may be reimagined as Ginrai (yes I know VL and Ginrai are the same guy)

And a reality-displaced SG Ravage has joined my Autobots (since I don't have any other SG figures)

 

 

Decepticons: Again, pretty much the C/U/G offerings, with the following changes:

 

Galvatron - Energon Megatron (Uni Galvatron wasn't that bad, just needed to be a Voyager) I'd say Energon Galvy, but the shade of purple just didn't work for me for some reason.

 

Music Label Soundblaster

RiD Ruination as Bruticus

ROTF Bludgeon

CLassics Starscream (I prefer the reimagining over the exact reproduction of the original deco on the Universe model)

ANd honestly, I'm pretty happy with most of the updated Decepticons I've gotten from the homage lines

My big problem with CHUG is figures like blur, its a random model with blur paint job. I find it to be a waste of time.

It's actually not a random model.

It's Blurr's IDW design. This Generations line-up is seemingly focusing on making most of the new mold figures from the comic designs and characters. Blurr, and Perceptor are based off their IDW appearances, Darkmount(Straxus) and Hailstorm are two comic characters that didn't have toys when they first appeared, Thunderwing is getting a new fig, and he was a pretty popular comic character as well.

I'm sorry but from what I've seen that blurr is not the IDW design, unless there is an earth mode which hasn't been posted online.

The head is the part that is IDW designed
