Botcon 2010 Ideas (with Digibashes)
Set #1: "Departure from Nebulos"
This set is centered around Headmasters, Powermasters, and Targetmasters who are leaving Nebulos and severing the bonds with their Nebulon partners. This would allow for a selection of those characters, but would also explain the lack of Nebulons; the only Nebulons present in the set would be recolors of the targetmaster from the Universe Cyclonus mold.

-Siren (from Energon Downshift; remolded head)
-Skullcruncher (from Cybertron Beast Megatron; remolded head) inspiration by Giga Leo here

Set #13: "Paradron Regained"
This set takes place about five years after the events of Animated; without Megatron or Starscream, the Decepticons have mostly abandoned Earth, and a new contingent of Autobots has been transferred there to make sure they don't come back.
The Autobots of Paradron probably should have known better than to trust their new Communications officer. Even looking past his peculiar vocal processor, they might have at least become suspicious of the ill-tempered robotic bird that he kept as a pet. But far-away Paradron was so isolated that it barely remembered what a Decepticon was, or that their race had ever been at war. It was all too easy for the new arrival (a refugee from distant Earth whom the Paradron medics nursed back to health) to install himself in a prominent position in the planetary Communications department. From his post he broadcast a message to any nearby Decepticons that Paradron was ripe for the taking.... and Straxus responded. Straxus, grown from the same protoform mold as the warlord Megatron, shared his mold-mate's thirst for conquest. With his lieutenant Snare, Straxus had taken control of Paradron before they knew what hit them. Several of the Paradronians... Sandstorm, Hound, Scorch, and Lightspeed... formed a resistance cell of sorts to undermine Straxus' rule. But after deca-cycles of peace, they were ill-suited for strategy and combat. The tide didn't turn until the arrival of two battle-hardened Earth Autobots, Trailbreaker and Ricochet, who had intercepted the Communicator's broadcast and had raced across the stars to assist their long-lost cousins...
Box Set contents:
-Sandstorm (from Blackout; remolded head)

-Hound (from Swindle; remolded head)
-Communicator and Buzzsaw (from Soundwave and Laserbeak)

Set #14: "Reinforcements From Cybertron"
This set also takes place a few years after the events of Animated....
After the capture of Megatron and death of Starscream, the Decepticon threat on Earth seemed much diminished. However, while Starscream was dead, he was far from gone. Prolonged contact with the Allspark shard had caused his spark to expand beyond his physical form, leaving an echo on the environment even after his body ceased functioning. Now he is trapped on Earth, an intangible ghost seeking a new body. He found the perfect candidate in Guiltaur... a sparkless, human-built Transformer created by Sumdac competitor Quintesson Cybernetics. Guiltaur's design is based on illegally-obtained scans of both Prime and Megatron, and built on a frame based on the Decepticon Swindle (whom Quintesson Cybernetics researchers had a chance to study while he was impounded by the Detroit Police Department). His primitive A.I., however, was all too easy for Starscream's ghost to overpower. Installed in his new body, Starscream recruited a trio of monstrous Decepticon thugs... Squeezeplay, Gnaw, and Cutthroat... and began a series of vicious raids on Earth cities. The Autobots were spread too thin to effectively fight off every raid, so Optimus Prime sent a request to Ultra Magnus.... they needed reinforcements from Cybertron! Magnus obliged, sending a shipful of new Autobots to be stationed on Earth: the strategist Overdrive, computer programmer Chromedome, the diminutive strong-bot Brawn (along with a stowaway he had picked up off-planet, a peculiar robotic bat named Nightscream), and a squad of Cybertron's police force, the Autotroopers. En route to Earth they also encountered Smokescreen, a once-proud cyber-samurai now on the run from gambling debts. Joining forces with Optimus' Earth troops, these new additions helped defend against Starscream's gang.
Oh, incidentally, for this set I followed the 2009 model, which had three attendee sets (with the Autotrooper 3-pack being analogous to the Sweeps set).
Box Set contents:
-Guiltaur (from Swindle; remolded head)
-Brawn and Nightscream (from Soundwave and Ratbat)

Anyway, that's all I've digibashed for now. I have a few other ideas I'd like to get to as well; I may edit this post later and add them, if I ever get to them.
Comments/critiques/insults are welcome.
