There are tons of Jump-Infantry and Jet-pack units in the game. Jump- and Jet- seems to get tacked onto Infantry and MCs often enough.
One interesting unit is the Nurgle Plague Drones that are Jet-pack Calvary, as it has the rules for both.

Are there any Unit type combos that don't exist that you'd like to see? What army or armies might have units like that?
Personally, I'd like to see Jetbike MCs, possible for Eldar or Dark Eldar. Or Beast MCs for Nids

I would like to see Jump and jetpack walkers.

I would subsequently like to see certain MCs and GMCs turned into jump and jetpack walkers.

I'd like to see Beast MCs for Nids. I think Tyranid MCs should be Beast MCs as standard for the larger nids (so excluding the Carnifex and Hive Tyrant), as the Trygon is suppose to be this super-tunneling monster but can only move a paltry 6 inches a turn, when the body of the thing is longer than that.

Tyranids do need a lot more beasts in the codex.

Definitely. Most of the Tyranid army should be either Beast or MC, honestly. At the very least, Hormagaunts fit the bill.

1000 Tzeentch Arcanites (Pyrofane Cult - Hysh) in progress
2000 Slaves to Darkness (Ravagers)

Having Beast would go a long way to fixing the army. It's a CC army with little in the way of transports and most of it moves at 6" a turn unless it flies.

I agree. Hormaguants, Rippers, Tyrgons & Mawlocs should all be Beasts/Beast MCs.

I also think the Dark Eldar Talos/Cronos should be some sort of Jump/Jet-pack MC

Beast MC would be awesome. Other than that though I can't really think of anything I 'd like to see.
