ok, so i hope for sly 5, its about ancestors again, and that penelope re-joins the team. then in sly 6 they just have some plot based around the cooper gang (all 7 of em). and for once the guru, panda king, dimitri and penelope are all fully playable and in the safehouse. Penelope has lots of RC based gadgets you can buy from thiefnet, and you can actually run around as her, i have no idea what her combat could be :S. Dimitri would have 2 costumes, his regular outfit and his diving gear. this opens up water areas in the hubs that he can swim in and other hidden collectables would be located there. The guru could have plenty of cool abilities, like he could mind control, at a distance, so you can use him to get guards to get into restricted areas or something.

maybe for sly 5, the collector had hired other villains (back in sly 4) that were to remain  dormant for a while in 6 other time periods? anywho sly 5 ends with the resurrection of Clockwerk (the proper one, not a strange clockla) only for him to cause something that leads to the plot in the next game. not time travel based.

what if, during sly 4 and 5, more then just the ancestors canes are collected? what if parts to rebuild clockwerk are gathered by them? clockwerks eye in one of the vaults in sly 4 is gold- so a new, golden clockwerk. the parts get left in a warehouse in modern times, the collector escapes and rebuilds clockwerk. the collector meets clockwerk in the past and copies his memories to be placed into the new body. by the time the collector escapes sly has had a child, and then clockwerk kidnaps the child, and makes sly steal things from the worlds most secure locations around the world- so it would be a truly sneaky sly game, having to break into various museums and vaults for objects that clockwerk uses for his master plan- now this idea just needs bosses and stuff, but im not sure if i like it :S

i think what sly 4 lacked was character exclusive collectables, they all seemed to be linked to sly or the ancestor, if they had items that only say, murray or bentley could get, that would be cool.
