As a father of 4 daughters, this actually sounds sisters arguing and one-upping each other. (yeah, I'm screwed when they are all teens)

I mean I love a good G1 blockfest as much as the next guy, but what I'd really like is some of the classic combiners with aesthetics homaging some of the other more unusual designs from the Transformers franchise. So for example, an Animated-styled Defensor with Derek J Wyatt's cartoony, dynamic aesthetic, or a Computron done to resemble the elegant technorganic designs of Beast Machines/TransTech (so effectively some of the better BM Maximal design cues but applied to vehicles instead of beasts). Likewise, imagine an Abominus done like a Transmetal II, with grotesque biomechanical detailing, chrome, asymmetry and cloven hooves instead of regular feet!

I may be going out on a limb here, but I suspect registering the patents for the parts new to the U.S. has thrown a wrench into directly importing UW Computron, among other things. Aside from Afterbreaker, the only figure with new parts is Strafe, the rest have all been registered (and approved) before (don't know if Scrounge is a pretool). Plus, the hands and feet are static pieces with less restrictions I'd assume. In contrast, UW Computron has:
- new parts for Scattershot, Nosecone and Lightspeed
- new parts for Strafe, who is based on a not-yet-registered toy (Blast Off)
- new accessories
Getting all that legalised may have taken too much time, so with a few short cuts the US got a "redeco Computron", more or less.

I understand with Scattershot as he appears to have been retooled by Hasbro and then further retooled by Takara, but Afterburner appears to have been retooled first by Takara, so, were the guns on a separate mold sprue? That's the only reason I can think of for them not including the new guns on Afterbreaker.
This of course asuming the molds were retooled in the order I suggest

Thanks! I read it and immediately thought of it, I assume DeadCaL was kinda referencing that as well
