What would you want them to do if they started supporting Gamma World again

I know they aren't really goign to do much of it by the way they said that they have no plans to do any Gamma World articles for Dragon when I tried to submit one. But if they suddenly had a change of heart, what would you want them to do aside from the obvious "more Omega Tech, Alpha Mutations, and Origins"? Here's what I'd want:

*Them to do stats for the classic GW monsters that they inexplicably missed, like the Centisteed, the Gator, the Terrorbirds, the Hissers, the Mantids and THE GOD-DAMN DEATH MACHINE! I mean, seriously, why didn't they put one of GW's iconic monsters in the game (Though I do have a hunch that they might have been implying that the thing at the center of the moon was the Death MAchine)?
* Stats for some of the big players in the Cryptic Alliances (Napoleon, Simon the AI, Crowbar, Sister Mercy, some new NPCs) to serve as "final bosses".
* Rules for levels 11-20.
* A bit of fluff for certain D&D monsters and how they came to be in Gamma Terra (That would be not so much useful as cool, but I'd still like it).
* Gamma World equivalents of D&D artifacts (That is, really powerful, intelligent Omega Tech with a story and an agenda).
* Templates and Themes for Gamma World's monsters

So, what would you want if they made new content for Gamma World?

Revisiting Metamorphosis Alpha to Omega would be interesting.

Fluff books. Make a GW version of New York City and fill it with encounters.

I'd like to see several GW products:
* A nice large-area map (several states in one map)
* A detailed city or town
* Offical GW dice
* GW DM screen
* A few more generic location tiles (warehouse, street, sewer, badlands, etc.)

I know that some people had been pushing for higher levels. I don't know that I have much use in that because I like lower-level games better anyway. Still, if we're looking for a "wish list" I'd say that adding extra levels would be nice. And higher level monsters to battle with those characters.

The problem here is that I'm pretty sure the James Ward retains the rights to Metamorphosis Alpha. I think there is a company doing a 4E-compatible MA product right now, although I haven't heard any updates in about 2 years.

I'd love to see them do a setting article  on Washington D.C. (Called Washing Town: Demon City) as a showcase for the game's new addition of Demons. Come on, you know it makes sense. And I would really love to see Karl Rove (or a thinly-veiled stand in) yell "LOOK UPON MY TRUE FORM AND DESPAIR!" before turning into a bat/snake/boar/lion demon. Because I hate him.

More Origins, ways to mix more Magic/Fantasy (Wizards - Ralph Bakshi).

1) They have that it's called googlemaps + Photoshop.
2) see above.
3) I've seen ugly neon radioactive dice colors.
4) A DM screen would have been AWESOME if they includeded it with the 1st GW box...oh well.
5) Other companies make that (sci-fi battle maps, etc.), but, yeah...I'd like to see a set of 'official' style dungeon tiles for GW. I'd buy them in a heartbeat.  

Extra levels would be nice, I think...some people might play GW more seriously, a la Fallout. I would consider playing GW seriously if it was supported as such. I dig the 4e system for something like that, and houseruling all that info would be a fulltime job, lol.

Also, I'd love to see an adventure for GW published that told us exactly WHAT the horrible thing was that was living at the center of the moon that they mentioned in Legion of Gold.
