In the slang of Transformers franchise fans "kibble", "anti-kibble" and "zero-kibble" is a part of robot design tied to its alternative mode (like beast, vehicle, whatever) - examples are Optimus Prime tires and chest windows, classic Starscream back wings, classic Grimlock tyrannosaurus head hanging from his back, or classic Megatron fusion cannon (which formed targeting scope when toy was switched to the gun mode).
In short - kibbles are obvious parts of vehicle mode visible on robot mode.
Term is forged for TF franchise but kibbles itself are present also in japanese mecha. Heck, they're in every franchise with transforming robots.
To the point.
Cryptic, you've released vehicles. So why not release comparable costume set with it, allowing players to make better transforming robots with said vehicles as their alt modes? Just take geos for tanks and jets, cut it and make it into set with new shoulder, chest wear, limbs and limb accesories (bracers, long gloves, arm/leg accesories), backpacks, arm cannons, and maybe throw a few additional head types.
Release it with selectable and colorable textures based on vehicles camo designs.
This has two advantages:
1 - there are complaints about fighting vehicles not really belonging to hero comic books. Well, there are two succesful comic series, Marvel and IDW TF series, both also included crossovers with Marvel heroes. This would certainly link vehicles with hero comics.
2 - this could create better selling point for vehicles.

Been having the hardest time creating vehicular Mecha, this would be an excellent addition. As well as a few robotic animal pieces. Robo animal head pieces under the hands category..That sort of thing.
