Blokees has definitely taken to the market in a big way with tons of Transformers fans loving these chibi-esque small easily assembled blind box model kits that have been getting better and better with each wave! The cast has expanded quickly, and they along with Yolopark are some of the best affordable non-transforming Transformers figures out there! They've got me hooked, and eagerly awaiting the reveal of their wave 10 of the Galaxy line. They've lately been alternating with the Transformers One film for their waves so it remains to be seen if wave 10 is another return to the One cast or a continuation of more G1 (or something else entirely!), but I've drawn up my most wanted Blokees Galaxy Version model kits based on the G1 continuity!
5. More Combiners
Since the conclusion of the Constructicons we haven't had any more combiner teams introduced into the Galaxy line. Defender series has been pumping them out with Devastator and now Bruticus coming in combinable fashion, but I'd still love to get Galaxy sized versions of the different combiner teams as well! Combaticons are an obvious fan favorite, but I'd also be game for ones with lesser recognition like the Protectobots or Technobots.
4. Trypticon
Metroplex was an interesting addition to the latest wave and one I honestly feel like could have been done at a Classic Class size in order to "scale" better with the Galaxy figures; however, with him in the Galaxy size we need someone he can actually pose alongside and Trypticon would be an obvious foil to release. Not only that, he is one of my all time favorite Decepticons with his purple and black color scheme and intimidating dinosaur motif.
3. Reflector
The season 1 cast of Decepticons was pumped out fairly quickly with the core leaders, Seekers, and Constructicons too, leaving Reflector in the dust and nowhere to be seen! His iconic status of being three could pose a big of a problem for collectors trying to fill him out from blind boxes; however, perhaps Blokees could find some sort of workaround solution of some kind? However they do it, I would greatly love to get one of my favorite underrated G1 Decepticons in the line up!
2. Thrust
With the conclusion of the Constructicons it seemed that the next "teams" that were focused on were finishing the Dinobots (done now), as well as starting the Coneheads and the Insecticons (who are done as of Bombshell's reveal for the next wave of Shining). Dirge was a mainline Galaxy release while Ramjet was oddly slotted into the Shining assortment, breaking up the team. We haven't gotten wind of what the plan is for Thrust (my personal favorite of the trio), but having him in the next wave makes sense to get this team done quickly!
1. Astrotrain
This list has been dominated by a lot of my favorite Decepticons and that's no different when it comes to Astrotrain. He was long been one of my all time top choices for Decepticon favorite, from his colors to his design and the creative duality of his alt modes, not to mention the booming voice of his G1 characterization, and his epic role in Skybound's latest comic series. The G1 Triple Changers have begun with Blitzwing in Galaxy, and his fellow season 2 Triple Changer Astrotrain is ideally right around the corner for one of the best duos in the original series!
