>>6911235>>6911259>Blastoff is the deal breakerYep, which is why he would obviously need the most re-imagining. If I recall correctly, wasn't he revived from some sort of bomber back in G1?
>>6911272I definitely agree that we need to have good MP and Classics version first, but maybe MMC's and Zeta's/Unique's might be the answer
If anyone cares though, i got bored and began brainstorming some possible ideas
>Blast OffThe elephant in the room and also probably the hardest to pick an alternate for. After a running through a variety of ideas though, I kept thinking back to an AC-130. Let's him retain air superiority in a manor of sorts. Yes i know its still a large vehicle
>VortexGonna take a note from the movies and would say any of the Sikorsky CH-53 variants would work. Never saw Vortex as being a gunship, but you could maybe give him a couple extra guns. Also a large vehicle
>BrawlMight as well keep him modeled after an Abrams or something, there's no heavy/super-heavy tanks any more so he can't go much bigger
>SwindleThe Jeep/Humvee has to go, it's always been way to small any sense and simply lacks the bulk the team should have. Looking at something like the Stryker IAV, far beefier but still keeps him the smallest of the group, although you could just as easily make him the same size a Brawl as their alt mode would be like 2 meters off from one another
>OnslaughtThink something like the MAZ-7917 but maybe replace the ICBM with a large artillery piece. Or don't and Just give Bruticus nuclear warheads to chuck ala Liberty Prime style. Would still be the largest of the land based alt mode figures
Again if anyone care I can post some more in-depth reasoning for my thoughts and for how a combined mode would work later
