Design your own Capsule / Subline

I love the idea of using "Unreleased G2 repaint ideas" as a theme for a whole subline. It got me thinking of other possible ideas for themed groups of figures to release, and wanted to see what other people thought of as well.

The "rules," I guess, would be that it would have to be a group of figures from recent lines (or otherwise known available molds, like the G1 reissue stuff they're doing now) repainted and/or slightly remolded, similar to what we normally get in these sort of lines. Otherwise, the sky is the limit!

Here's one from me:

Renegade Rampage: Move over, Decepticons, there are some new villains to contend with as the evil Go-Bot Renegades find themselves thrust into the Transformers Universe!

Cy-Kill - Remold of Wreck-Gar/Junkheap

Cop-Tur - Repaint of Siege Spinister

Forgot to make a picture. Imagine that there is one here.




Fitor - Repaint of Thrust

Tank - Remold of Wreckers Impactor

Zod - Repaint of Grimlock

And finally, Thruster repainted from the Ark.

I liked how in the G.I. Joe Python Patrol and Tiger Force line Joe vehicles and Cobra vehicles were mixed together. I would like to see a line where Autobot shapes and Decepticon shapes are mixed together. Like an Autobot Starscream or a Decepticon Ironhide.

Oh, I LIVE for this kind of stuff!

First one I got, something Velocitron styled:
The Cybertanium Fist Tournament!
The top Transformers fighters have gathered in a fighting tournament to determine the galaxy’s greatest combatant! With glory and Energon as the prize, all bets are off! Part of the gimmick would be “versus style” packaging, with each combatant facing each other on retailer shelves, detailing each’s fighting style.

Wave 1 Deluxe:
Tarantulas (Ninja)- Toy robot head and colors
Downshift (Bot Fu)- Earthrise Wheeljack redeco sporting Cybertron Downshift colors
Tap Out (Referee)- Cliffjumper redeco

Wave 2 Deluxe:
Kick-Off (Brawler)- SS Jazz Redeco
Oil Slick (Circuit-Su)- Retool Legacy Crashbar

Wave 1 Voyager: (Story being Backstop looking for revenge against Banzaitron for dishonoring their master, Yokotron)
Banzaitron (Master of Crystalocution)- Rumor is a retool of Tarn to Bludgeon is happening, so repaint that.
Backstop (Master of Crystalocution)- Kingdom Rhinox, though I’d prefer the RotB Core Rhinox, myself, I’m not sure how the rights would work there.

Wave 1 Leader:
Sixknight (Master of Conversions)- Repaint TR Quickswitch. Includes Energon “reward” cubes.

Wave 2 Leader:
Primal Prime (Matrix Knight)- Repaint PotP Optimal Optimus.

After the Transformers' conflict devastated one of Earth's major cities, humans have tried to take matters into their own hands, but their artificial Transformers have gone rogue due to Galvatron's influence! Now it's up to a small number of Autobots in hiding to save the day...

Optimus Prime from Earthrise Trailbreaker
Hot Rod from Kingdom Mirage
Drift from Siege Springer
Crosshairs from Earthrise Sunstreaker
Autotrooper from let's say Legacy Knock Out
Galvatron from Siege Voyager Optimus Prime
Lockdown from Kingdom Sideswipe

Transformers: Undercover City.

The theme is to focus on disguises in a city setting. Give us some vehicle types that would be cool but that we havnt gotten before:

All new Characters.

Skids mold as a Postal Truck
Crankcase remold as a Pizza Delivery vehicle.
Ironhide as a Catering Van.
Knockout as a Taxi
Legacy Bulkhead with a new head and Back-of-vehicle/shield as a School Bus.


-ZacWilliam, just really wants us to someday get a school bus TF.

Love it. We have enough fancy cars. Mundane vehicles are fun too.

Rescue Bots:
(Maybe a redundant idea, if that presumed Walgreens Medix is anything to go by)
>Heatwave from Legacy Bulkhead with the shield part retooled to make his ladder
>Chase from Earthrise Runamuck
>Blades from Seige Spinister (Not too many helicopters to choose from, lately)
>Boulder -maybe a pretool for a theoretical Armada Scavenger update, or could be a Cosmos/Override-style new mold
>Quickshadow from Legacy Knockout
>Whirl from Earthspark Twitch if the mold is available
>Morbot from Legacy Dragstrip

The Blue Deployer:
(Because even Cybertronians sometimes want to go where everybody knows their name, and they're always glad they came.
Could also be Maccadams, but Cryotec is right there. Would also like to have appropriate backgrounds or props printed into the packaging)
>Cryotec from Legacy TM2 Megatron
>Crystal Widow from Kingdom Blackarachnia (maybe not actually clear plastic, though)
>Slipstream from the Earthrise Seeker mold or Armada Starscream
>Filch/Chro from Kingdom Airrazor
>Ironfist/Fisitron from Legacy Crankcase
>Dion from Legacy Hot Shot
>Rung from Legacy Animated Prowl or Earthspark Thrash (if possible)
Alternately, Froid from Armada Starscream
>Bulkhead (Energon) from Siege Spinister
Alternately, Cyb Evac from Siege Spinister
>Nightbeat from Legacy Minerva

Transformers: Legends of Cybertron
(A callback to the original Legends class, using all Core class molds. Either packed in pairs or simply marketed at the cheaper price point)
>Marvel(ous) purple Soundwave-Kingdom Core Soundwave
>Decepticon Air Warrior-Kingdom Core Starscream (really, there could be an entire capsule series made of Seekers)
>Browning-Kingdom Core Megatron
>Ultra Magnus, Delta Magnus, G1 Yellow Splendid Optimus, basically any flavor of Optimus Prime from the Core version (see Seekers, above) Ideally, with a new-mold Combat Deck to sweeten the deal.
>Galactic Man Shockwave from Legacy Shockwave
>Six Shot (Energon) from Legacy Shockwave
>Tow Line from SS86 Core Ironhide
>Cybershark from Cyberverse Spark Armor SkyByte (if available)
>Enemy from SS86 Core Rumble
>Frenzy (silver) from SS86 Core Rumble
>Van Guard from SS86 Ironhide
>SideBurn from Kingdom Core Hot Rod
>FlipSides from Legacy Eject (if available)
>Rosanna from Legacy Eject (if available)

Kingdom Sideswipe in black with the accessories produced for the G2 Siege toy.

Kingdom Warpath with a new missile turret as Mindset
Kingdom Slammer as a generic Cybertronian Empire mook

Decepticon Takeover!
Posted this in the Legacy wave thread, but it would also fit here, a set based on the concept in the first live action movie of the Decepticons subverting authority/government entities. The core figures pair with the deluxes, not sure how that would work in a capsule line.

CORE:
>Decepticon Scalpel
>Decepticon Armada Laserbeak (prototype colors)
>Decepticon Frenzy (live-action-based)
>Targetmaster Nightstick

DELUXE:
>Flatline (hearse)
>Barricade (police car)
>Decepticon Unfare (taxi)
>Electromagnetic Soundwave (based on Animated, altmode is decoed as a News van)

VOYAGER:
>Decepticon Smolder (fire truck/brush truck) with Chopster
>Decepticon Medicon (Ratchet redeco/retool) with Glit https://tfwiki.net/wiki/Decepticon_medics
>Decepticon Payload (armored car)

LEADER:
>Garagebot/Garbagebot (Waste Management garbage truck from DotM)
>Decepticon Metrotank (city bus altmode)

Oh man, Flatline is a character that needs a toy badly. A Decepticon hearse is just too good an idea not to be turned into reality.

And any reference to Power Core Combiners is appreciated.

I wasn't huge on PCC, but I picked up a few and still love Smolder to this day. I've had hours and hours of fun with that toy. A Decepticon hearse would be so cool! And I have to say too that an updated Electromagnetic Soundwave would be really nice.

I haven't gotten any further with this, but "Reinforcements from Cybertron" would be fun, with Overdrive, Downshift, and Camshaft.

I'll let someone else with encyclopedic knowledge of what molds are out there have fun with deciding which molds to use and who(m?) to include as their Decepticon counterparts.

This sounds like a great place for the rest of the Deluxe Insecticons to get released!
