This line has me so excited, and after seeing all the toyfair pics, and the way the species are all being filled out, what do you want to see?
Meta-Beasts dinosaur or lizard, a bull, oh, a shark would be cool
Unnaturals Grim reaper style dude a zombie Knight, got enough skeles for a while
Sectoids Bee Style Spider
Neo Sapiens hitman in a suit, or just a basic black body, make the tie part the chest armour
BioMecha a bot/cyborg with 4 arms would be cool
Hyperfuries hmm....smoke could be cool, all tall and wispy
So, what do you guys wanna see?

I could go for a Grim Reaper, and defiantely a lizard type Meta beast. I wouldn't mind seeing a black and/or a female neosapien mold either. Looking forward to the Egytpian character as well. But what would be cool would be a dragon style, like a bigger version of the Stikfas dragon with more color. Maybe two or three different types like a flier, and land, and a water.

Dragons would be so awesome...I'd buy a ton of those!
A couple of female characters would be good as well, it would mix up the line a little bit.
The animal thing has my interest as well. I can't wait for the eagle type one to come out. A gorilla or something along that lines would be welcome or even a bear. Didn't really think about water animals before but they could be done really well too, throw some of that clear blue plastic in there and I'd be all over them ;D

okay here are my ideas meta beast-- rabbit, bear, wolverine (there are all scary beasts if you ask me)
neosapians-- special forces, double agents, spys, females, the king (the spys and double agents could be for different factions of the neosapians. and females would rock. and the king would be cool)
unnatural-- mutant, dracula, demony, creepy (yeah a few of those are discriptions... but they get the point accross)
bio mecha-- different style legs, and upper bodies... multiple arms and legs, maybe something like the game kinetica(ps2)
furies-- water, land, forest
sectoids -- warriors with better weapons, spiders, the queen?
ran out of time near the middle, sorry, Your_Number1_Fan

I was just thinking the other day how cool a big T-Rex Xevoz would be.
I'd also like some weird Alien creatures and some sports inspired neo sapiens.

I realized a ranger type of neo sapiens, or maybe a metabeast would be quite cool, a big bow, hood and cloak...other rangery things...
Some biomecha that used metabeast or bug hosts as cyborgs could be cool, like a big cyborg gorilla

Female characters, as other people have suggested, would be great. Heck, if Hasbro faces resistance to introducing women in the line, they can always just make characters that can mostly go either way, and include swappable male and female parts. I'd like to see some medieval-type characters...knights and wizards and such. Either as a seventh species or as part of the Neos. A hi-tech spin on knights' armor might look really cool. The more Meta Beasts, the merrier. Lions and tigers and bears, oh my. I'd also like to see the Biomecha be differentiated from the Neo Sapiens a bit more...right now the distinction seems to be that Biomecha have their gear built in and Sapes don't, but otherwise, if I didn't know the Sledge Trooper was supposed to be a different species than the Alpha Ranger I wouldn't have guessed. I suppose this will become more clear as more figures get released, though.

I'd like to see Neo Sapiens spies that would have a human type body with other species armor so they could blend in. A bit like the Spytroops GIJoe figures. For example, a human with some meta beast armor parts or something. I'd also like to see a pirate (probably in the unnatural line) And of course I want Transformers xevoz figures in the Biomechas line! (New Action masters anyone?

Here what I'd like to see:
Ultimately Marvel and GI Joe Xevoz styled figures. But in keeping with the lines themes I'd like to see more military type neo sapiens. Futuristic Navy Seal, guys in camo patterns, heavy artillary soldiers, flying jet pack soldiers, and black out soldiers. A few people have mentioned spys, and those would be cool too.
For the meta beasts; bull, bear, tiger, hawk, shark, a 10 inch whale figure, or an 8 inch elephant figure.
For Unnaturals: 8 inch troll figure, roman type skeletons and knight type skeletons. I think if they do any type of mythical/historical type soldiers, they should place it in the unnaturals line as a skeleton warrior.
For the Hyperfuries; just keep using the clear plastic to make them...it really works well. To start, I thought the Inferno fury would be my least favorite and now that I have it put together it's on of my top favorites.
For the Biomecha; They could make robotic version of all the other types as terminator infiltrators, some bigger robotics types...8-10 inch, and try some convertible ones like the Blok bots were doing.
Finally I'd like to see booster parts packs. Like maybe 2 or 3 for each wave that come with a few extra parts for each guy in the wave. Already I'd like the other half of the armor for the panther meta beast, the other boot for Skull Jack, and a should joint for the sledge trooper the allows you to mount the rocket laucher on the shoulder and still have a limb (the waist piece already does this, so another one of them would do).

Greetings:
As I commuted for two hours this morning, I was thinking that it would be nice to have a ninja booster set (similar to Mortal Kombat archetypes) with a Fire Ninja that could be made with the same translucent red and yellow plastic as the Inferno Fury with black detailing (for the heads and belt) and an Ice Ninja in translucent blue. Additional heads to consider: Kabuki Lion Mask (think Kyoshiro from Samurai Showdown), Samurai Warrior Helmet, Komuso hat, and Tengu (Crow demon) head. Armory could be expanded to include Naginatas (spears), Tonfas, Giant Shuriken (like in Naruto anime).
For Meta-beasts: Dragons would certainly be a good choice as already mentioned. Perhaps Medusa, Griffin, Chimera, Hydra, Anubis, Sphinx, and Centaur aspects could be worked into the Xevoz mythos.
For example a Deluxe Centaur set could be designed to also yield a Pegasus (Winged horse)/Unicorn with the appropriate re-arranging. The horse head could be attached to a human body to create a Horse-headed demon. The horse itself could make a suitable mount for Neo-sapiens scale characters.
Another idea: a Head Hunter/Predator type with enough ball joints on his chest and arms to wear extra heads as trophies. It could be packed with assorted extra heads as a value pack.
Since Hasbro also makes Transformers and the BTR line. It might be possible to have some Generation 1 style bots make up part of the Bio Mecha race.

Ugh. Do me a favor and leave the transformers out of it. If you like transformers, BUY transformers! ;D The BioMechas are my favorite and I want them to look like Robots and just Robots. I know that they already have a transformer in the pipeline, and one is ok, but don't get carried away. I would like to see some tank treads instead of legs for some Biomechas. A hinged claw. Some blocky body types. That sort of thing.

I agree with Gearz...Transformers are ok but if I wanted to buy them I would buy Transformers. I'd rather see them stay in there own line. Besides they've already had there shot at a world outside of the traditional line and it didn't work. BTR, the Built to Rule line...they've been 50% off all month long and we've sold maybe 2 or 3 items, they are not popular at all.

I had a ton of ideas, but after reading through the entire thread I realized they have already been covered! O well, great minds and such i guess...

By suggesting Xevoz type transformers figures I meant to say they should be a subline or something and not really part of the xevoz universe. Just take the Xevoz/Stikfas principle and make transformers with it. Then call it Transformers: Actionmasters or something I too want more generic robots in the Biomecha line and not robots lookings like other liscenced robots out there.
