Nice blocks. Maybe you should tell Scratch Team to add those blocks so Scratch will have even more projects containing the block ideas you need than having the original blocks.

Kiwi for most except for:

All of sound because you can make a sound be reversed through the sound editor and speed is controlled by tempo.
Locking and Unlocking because it would be buggy and can be done easily through encryption.
The revolving would be better for 3D rather than 2D and can be done other ways. (Scratch isn't meant to be 3D)
I'm really unsure about the new custom block because it should be ANY variable and you can make blocks w/ and w/out refresh. PLUS custom blocks can be easily executed this way:

Well, maybe mod and the ^ could be combined in a dropdown fashion?

The properties of logarithms can form a workaround with x^y = 10^(y log x). However, most users aren't that advanced into exponents, so they would prefer to have ( ) ^ ( ).

Define (base) ^ (exponent)
if <(base :: custom) > (0)> then
    set [answer v] to ([10 ^ v] of ((exponent) * ([log v] of (base))))
else
    if <((exponent) mod (1)) = (0)> then
        set [answer v] to [1]
        repeat ([abs v] of (exponent))
            set [answer v] to ((answer) * (base))
        end
        if <(exponent) < (0)> then
            set [answer v] to ((1)/(answer))

Actually, no. That has issues with negative bases. A better workaround would be like so:

Define (base) ^ (exponent)
if <(base :: custom) > (0)> then
    set [answer v] to ([10 ^ v] of ((exponent) * ([log v] of (base))))
else
    if <((exponent) mod (1)) = (0)> then
        set [answer v] to [1]
        repeat ([abs v] of (exponent))
            set [answer v] to ((answer) * (base))
        end
        if <(exponent) < (0)> then
            set [answer v] to ((1)/(answer))
        end
    else
        set [answer v] to [undefined]
    end
end

So yeah, not such a simple workaround after all.
