It's ridiculous how much better that trailer looks with this Prime than the one it came with.
Ah, damn it, now THAT'S got me vaguely interested, him hitting folks with The Motor Math.

Love the "old man transformer" details like the cracks and the right shoulder missing its cover.

Was Xaaron the biggest remaining show/comic-only G1 character whose never had a toy? I'm trying to think of who's left now. Rack 'n' Ruin, I guess?
Arcee, Alpha Trion, the female Autobots and Devcon have gotten toys. Straxus, Scrourge and now Xaaron have gotten toys. (Though Scrounge is probably due for an update)
Who's the biggest G1 character left that still needs a toy?

There's a few that I can think of. Again, these are getting more obscure, but I don't feel like anything is off the table now:
The Last Autobot - Vector Prime is a pretty good stand in for him, but I'd like to see him get his own toy.
Trannis, the Decepticon leader before Megatron. He'd be a great remold of the Voyager Junkion toy, possibly in a two-pack with:
Sentinel Prime / U-Haul Robot, I'd love to see him made from Gamer Edition Optimus, now that we know that's a thing they can/will do.
Carnivac had a decent run in the comics, your basic Wolverine type of character. I can't believe we've never gotten him out of any of the various wolf transformers.
The majority of Squadron X, the DJD, or the Mayhem Attack Squad, tons of good characters there.
And last but not least, we still need Titan Class Spanner!
That's just Siege Refraktor's shoulders unaltered.Picture posted by Sixo, the guy that Hasbro had reveal the set:

Rack 'n' Ruin got a toy in Cyberverse... or do you mean the exact G1 character?

Huh! By golly you're right. I never noticed the asymmetrical shoulders before, but I guess the "flat" one having the Decepticon symbol on it made it less noticeable?
Cyberverse's design is different enough (Two headed Autobot vs two normal autobot welded together) that I'd consider him seperate. He's still got a spot on my shelf though.
Guess you're due for a name change, then.
G2 Rook, Mindset, any other Imperials besides Jhiaxus and those two generics.
I mean, they were all on my "lololol not gonna happen ever never ever" list but they *were* above FLAME.
OTOH, I am astounded and amazed that we haven't gotten proper G1 Omnibots.
Or new Mini-Spies.
I'd rather we got a Trannis that actually looked like what Simon Furman may have hypothetically had in mind when he came up with the character, instead of the goofy purple Junkion generic from the "Five Faces of Darkness, Part 4" flashback that Ask Vector Prime just casually slapped the name onto.
Ask Vector Prime was a mistake.
I’m still waiting for them to do a new take on Thunderclash and maybe the rest of the Turbomasters. Maybe even try and do Hyperion.
A Marvel G1 Sentinel would be very cool. Trannis could be interesting.
How about Boltax?
As for the Last Autobot, Vector does have precedent for that with the Universe redeco.

Maybe THAT’s why Earthrise Prime is getting rerun later this year!
Too bad said rerun already sold out before this Deluxe toy was revealed.
