What little known underrated or overrated subgroups need toys?

With all these great Wreckers toys coming out (I even went and acquired Gen Kup & RTS Percy yesterday to round out my Wreckers) it got me thinking, which niche subgroups need figures now?

The first off the top of my head is the G1 Wrecker's nemesis, the Mayhem Attack Squad. Done with a mix of the first and second line ups:

First:
Second:

To get them, while I'd prefer all new molds, I'd accept reusing old molds. They could "reissue" the ROTF Bludgeon mold, maybe recolour and retool (to eliminate the Cyberkey usage) the Cybertron Snarl as Carnivac. Maybe recolour the DOTM Skyhammer and Gen Scoop's Targetmasters and BANG! Instant Spinister! I'd even be OK with a recoloured legends Skrapnel as Chop Shop.

What would anyone else like to see?

I've always loved the Skyscorchers, cyberjets and Predators.

I think the clones and P/CP would be great to get official figs of. As in: specifically designed to be said characters, not repaints of pre-existing unrelated figures. (although if the paint scheme choices weren't so hideous on the Botcon Pounce/Wingspan, they would have been kinda cool)
