I'm now picturing a Jaruga given the CW Long Haul treatment and I'm not hating it. He'd be stuck with comically oversized missile launchers in vehicle mode and huge boots in robot mode. But this is the series that gave us Victory Saber. I'm prepared to accept huge boots.
And the leg bots here...
Thanks to an unexpected avalanche of lingering estate BS, I got about 8 hours of sleep this week! Half of which were last night.
So here's young Night Cap learning his powers.
This is where I am with this. Integrating all the combiner parts is hard. I get it. But if there's a way to make it happen, I would expect Haslab to have the leeway needed to make it happen.

I'd also give Blitwing...
