Default What hypothetical tomato crosses interest you?

I like to dream of tomato crosses (as well as watermelon crosses, and so forth). So, I thought we could start a thread about it where people could share ideas that interest them and talk about them. I'm not just interested in crosses between OP varieties.

Here are some that interest me:

Any of these for the matriarchal line: Alaskan Gold, Alpine, Amethyst Jewel, Anna Banana Russian, Anna Russian, Atkinson, Aunt Gertie's Gold, Aussie, Big Zac F1, Bill Bean, Black, Black Bear, Black Beauty, Black Giant, Black Mountain Pink, Black from Tula, Blue Beauty, Caro Rich, Chapman, Cherokee Chocolate, Chocolate Stripes, Church, Clear Pink Early, Cosmonaut Volkov, Cougar Red, Creole, Cuor Di Bue, Cuostralee, Dark Galaxy, EM Champion, Early Cascade, Early Glee, Early Rouge, Early Wonder, Evergreen, Forest Fire, George Detsikas Italian Red, Girl Girl's Weird Thing, Golden Queen, Good Old Fashioned Red, Green Giant, Gregori's Altai, Grosse Lisse, Grub's Mystery Green, Heatwave II F1, Indian Stripe, Japanese Black Trifele, Jetsetter F1, Kosovo, Legend, Li Cun, Malakhitovaya Shkatulka, Malinovoe Chudo, Manitoba, Marmande, Megabite, Mexican Yellow, Missouri Pink Love Apple, Moskvich, Napa Giant, New Yorker, North Dakota Earliana, Omar's Lebanese, Opalka, Oroma, Persimmon, Pink Berkeley Tie Dye, Pink Cheeks, Pink Stuffer, Pruden's Purple, Red Beauty, Red Rocket, Reisetomate, Roma, Rosabec, Sasha's Altai, Siletz, Sweet Ozark Orange, Talbot Russian, Taxi, Thessaloniki, Tiffen Mennonite, White Queen, Yellow Brandywine (Abundant Life), Yellow Stuffer, Yellow Trifele

Also, using Pakenham Pear, Matina and Graham's Good Keeper on the matriarchal line with those of the second list that aren't the same variety as the patriarchal line also interests me.
