It may not come off this way, but Unicron is a whole lot more bulk than the Titan class figures.
Not sure who all is left that I'd want Titans of. I can think of (and a lot of these have been mentioned already)
1- Grandus
2- Tidal Wave (wouldn't mind him being a small-but-complex Titan, the way they've been doing the size-class equals complexity figures lately)
3- Countdown's Rocket Base (unfortunately they've kind of spread him out over several different figures to where I think an actual Titan Countdown is out of the question at this point)

Just thinking with that picture "Unicron & his guardians!!" The guardians job is to protect Unicron as he devours planets and when he takes a million year nap after having lunch!
If you gave me a Titan Slot/Budget and free reign there's a very good chance you'd get:
1) Darkmount with Smelting Pool - Have it transform into a titan robot sure, but mostly for the Ton of play feature potential in "city" mode. Store disassembled weaponizer-type figures in the pit
2) If I got a second year, you'd absolutely get Titan Spanner turning into the Space Bridge. Put working clamps on either end so you can attatch it to span between real pieces of furniture Sky Commanders style.
-ZacWilliam, ah to dream.

Honestly short of seeing Unicron in person (because nothing prepares you for seeing him in person), the closest I've ever seen of images that truly convey how massive he is are the ones in Seibertron's gallery of him.
It's a shame all of the new titans from Cyberverse didn't have more distinctive designs. Like, they could do Iaconus or Croaton but I wouldn't be particularly excited about them.
The Dweller has some potential, but that's only because they didn't real show much of him. A giant Cthulhu titan could be really cool though.

There's always Gobots for untapped Titan potential:
•Guardian Command Center
-lean heavily into the walker mode for the robot, starship mode is pretty straight-forward, IF they retain the base mode, recreating the originals stickers is a MUST.
•Renegade Thruster
-give it a proper robot mode. Could be a possible recolor for the Ark.
•Gobotron Fortress
•Roguestar
-stuff built from unobtainium is proven to be suitable for $100+ price points* (*this statement has not been reviewed by the FDA)
•Zod
-reimagined as a kaiju-level threat, Zod could fit as a beast titan

I've only seen one still in the box, but it looked like it could easily crush a small child.
In other words, Ultra Zod from the cartoon.
Well, yes-ish? The general concept is correct, but Ultra Zod is more...spindly than I would think a Titan should look? I would maybe go for something with the build of the original Zod, and particularly the face of the original/toy. A dark blue redeco of Trypticon would probably be close enough to serve, and would straddle the Zod/Ultra Zod designs relatively well enough, although it would be cool if they could retool the head to be more Zod-like. (I don't know if Trypticon would even be an option for a redeco at this point, though? Also, Gigastorm seems like the next Trypticon redeco if it would get one)
The biggest issue with Gigastorm is that he’s, fundamentally, not THAT a significant a change from Trypticon. Aside from the new head laser cover and some remixed color locations…he still hits about all the same color marks as Trypticon.
That said, a Dinosaurer redeco based on the Gum toy (red, black and silver) might be an interesting angle to look at. Maybe a G1 Volcanicus as a Dinobot fortress or something?

That...would be genius!
Hound's holographic giant from Heavy Metal War:
He got the name from a Vector Prime Facebook post.
He got his name from Wings Universe fiction in 2010.
I wish I had him, and I can't contest it either way. But he doesn't have a direct Decepticon equivalent, so I wasn't counting him.
...again, unless we count Devastator, which I feel just goes for something entirely different, anyway.
I'd love a more space-conscious city mode in a new Metroplex. Ditto Fortress Maximus. G1's fortress seemed awesome, with lots of little interior stuff built in, but TR's... was not that.
