Top 5 most wanted obscure G1 characters in the Transformers TCG

With wave 3 of the Transformers TCG from Wizards of the Coast, the card game game us a load of obscure characters that I definitely did not expect to see nor knew even existed. But now characters like the Firecons and Omnibots are in my mind, and I'm eager to see what other characters we'll get from the pages of old comics books or old toylines that haven't been mentioned in ages. G1 is full of obscure characters, and here are the top 5 I've found that I've love to see add to a future wave!

5. Sixshot
By far this is the least obscure character on this list and that is also why he is lowest on the list. Many G1 fans will know who this character is, but mroe casual fans likely have no idea who this character is who had only around a minute of screen time in the original show. The creators have mentioned that they're trying to figure out how to make a six changer work in the card game, and automatically that must mean that the most famous six changer, Sixshot, is being worked on.

4. Clonebots
Another group of random bots who appeared in the final season of the original show. Pounce and Wingspan were two Decepticons who were identical in robot mode, but transformed into two different alt modes, the same goes for Fast Lane and Cloudraker. This could open up lots of fun team gimmick in the card game!

3. Sparkabots
We got the Firecons in wave 3 so it only makes sense that we will now get their rivals from the original toyline, the Sparkabots. It could be fun to play these groups against one another, especially if the Sparkabots are billed as a blue deck to fight the Firecons.

2. Throttlebots
Yet another group of random Autobots who appeared in the final season. This was a group of vehicular bots who partook in the first fight of the season, and included several fun personalities who would be a fun team to see in the card game.

1. Welcoming committee and Rainmakers

Seekers are well known among fans, but I'm going for the background Seekers of the original show here. We've already gotten a few of them with Sunstorm, Acid Storm, and Ion Storm, but I'm still waiting on the others such as Nova Storm, Hotlink, Bitstream, and Nacelle. It would be great to get all of them one day, and have a full set up of G1 Seekers.

Top 5 most wanted Star Wars the Black Series aliens from The Phantom Menace

Image
The prequel love is very strong recently in Star Wars the Black Series, the line of 6 inch collection figures covering the Star Wars franchise. It felt like, as a prequel fan, that I was gasping for prequel figures in the collection not only a year ago but now we've had a flood of them, with another flood quickly coming! It's gotten me more excited for the line than I've been in a long time, and I've been thinking about some choice prequel characters I'd like to see! Aliens are getting a bit of a resurgence in the line as well, with prequel Jedi, Moloch, Rio, and a few others, so what better list to make than my most wanted aliens from the prequels? For this post I'm focusing in on Phantom Menace which had a great selection of aliens! And here are my top 5!

Top 5 most wanted Jakks Pacific Sonic Badniks vol 2

Image
(Images Source) We have been getting more and more robotic Badniks in Jakks Pacific's line of Sonic figures which is very exciting! Primary characters are great, but getting more of the background designs to fill out the scenes is awesome and we've recently got some Badniks I was eagerly waiting for like the Burrobot, Newtron, and most recently the Caterkiller!! Eggman's army is packed to the brim though with all kinds of robotic enemies, and these are five more I hope to eventually see! 5. Jaws The Chopper is not the most posable of the Badniks that we've gotten so far (not that many are very posable to begin with), but it is such a classic design from the series and another underwater enemy would be the Jaws. With Jakks Pacific steadily working through giving us little playsets themed around different levels, a set themed around the underwater sequences would be the perfect way to get this guy into the line. 4. Roller With complete transparency, I will admit that thes

Most wanted Hammond Collection figures from each Jurassic film

Image
The new Hammond Collection line of figures from Hasbro looks to capitalize on everything I've ever wanted from a line of Dinosaur action figures! I am 100% okay with the figures not being 6 inch scale because that means we can get dinosaurs of all sizes and not break the bank or run out of display room too quickly, and so far this first year alone is giving us some fantastic looking Mesozoic creatures from across the Jurassic Park franchise! We're checking off classics like the T-Rex and Triceratops, but each new film brings plenty of new dinosaurs into the live action film industry, and this list here will break down my most wanted figures from each film! (Image Source) Jurassic Park: Brachiosaurus Being the most iconic and popular movie in the franchise, I shouldn't be too surprised that we've already gotten nearly every on screen dinosaur presented from this first movie! Preorder listings reveal that we'll be getting the Dilophosaurus before the year is out, leav
