Myself, I'll be taking stuff both ways. I'd enjoy a Scrapper or Warshade villainside, and a heroside Brute or Mastermind would be such a hilarious cakewalk that I couldn't pass up on the chance. I'll probably mostly be sticking to the same sides, though, unless GR brings some pretty big changes to how people team.
Heroside Stalker, though, seems unpleasant to me. Way too many kill-alls over there for my stalking tastes.
Having Vengeance and Fallout slotted for recharge means never having to say you're sorry.
My main will be going full villain and back again, just because I want to play every scrap of content I can with him.
Other than that, I will be taking hero toons redside and villain toons blueside as the whim strikes me, or as determined by their backstory. I look at it more as "All my characters are getting twice the game to play."

Beat me to it. I see no reason not to take my characters from either side across to the opposite side if only to experience more game. Definitely looking forward to running all the hero TFs with my stalkers and corruptors and vice-versa with my controllers.|

There are lots of ways to explain side-switching if concept matters, so it's not really a barrier.
Villains: Annie Alias, Dr. Amperical, Shade Golem, Knight Marksman
Heroes: The Clockwork Mime, Soccerpunch, The Fissioneer, Samurai Houston, Oversteer

I have a Blaster hero that will be going redside because he was the first attempt I made at a villain back before CoV came out. He has been a Corruptor, Brute and Dominator as well, but I will probably play the Blaster version just to get him into the 30s or so.
As someone else has previously mentioned, I also want to take a Warshade to the "dark side". I expect there will be a lot of that. 
I will be taking a Mastermind to the hero side. And there will be a lot of characters I leave in the "grey area". The ones I find most intriguing, though, are the ATs that really don't have a counterpart on the other side.
I must say that I am not that simple... I plan on making both hero and villain characters both sides, but I think that I'll mostly be at the grey side, you know Rogues and Vigilantes. Though, I will do this only out of concepts, so I'm not sure whether it will be Stalker or Scrapper or Controller or Mastermind, only a question on concept.

I don't see my villains as all bad partly because I never see the side that's good as all good. I think my villains belong on the darkside as their abilities are probably best put to use.
In my mind my hero characters and villain characters are actually on the same side it is literally a case of horses for courses and the ATs are on their correct paths.
If I have a reason to convert one over then that'll be it. With the european servers being as they are, I can only hope for more free server transfering in the future as we may all want heroes on one server and villains on another just for a community that looks big.

My villains are villains and my heroes are heroes.
They'll all be staying where they are.
I will, however, be creating a hero mastermind (starting in Praetoria),
but he'll be a hero from the get-go, not a redeemed villain.

Hello, my name is Soulwind and I have Alt-Itis.
Well,the more i play the game,the more i see my self going red side all the more.
I dont find my self on blue side with a Stalker,VEAT,or a Dark/Dark Brute.They just dont feel Heroic to me.I do have to agree with bringing a Warshade over tot he red side...because iv never been able to get into that class in the past.(LOL!I made a ryme!)I just didnt seem Heroic to me either.
Most of the builds and concepts i have,dont really fit a hero at all,reguardless of AT.
I will have some villains go to good and more characters go to the middle. I don't expect to have anyone go from good to bad.
Too many alts to list.

For me, I like both sides of the game so i have no issue playing one or the other. I intend to equally spread the AT's using concept as my guide. Since i started the game I had a villain envisioned that controls gravity, attracting & repelling stuff but I could only do that Hero side. Now i can play my Grav/FF Alt as the proper villain he should be. Had a similar problem with an Ice/Ice hero as i felt neither Blaster or Controller felt right, bit Dominator is spot on. I just hope I don't get laughed off of teams bringing a Grav/FF Controller red side. Heh heh.
I have never liked villians and its everything from the places to the slight lag i get when i get nothing hero side to the look of it even. I have played over 27 months and have maybe been on vills side for couple hours max. I cant wait to bring a sonic sonic corr over to heroes. I love that idea. I always liked sonic blast and always wanted to have a strong primary for defender but never liked sonic res enough to get it as primary so this works great.
If I do switch it'll be concept mostly. I will start a demon summoning in preatoria and a gunman as well just to try out the new powersets.
The only At i cannot get into hero side is the tanker (i'm just rubbish at it) even though i do like the extra protection. Villain side I have some problems with brutes and corrs. I just don't like the playstyle.
I will be taking my Fortunata, Ghost Widow, and Stalker heroside, and a Blaster and Tank redside. Each move is story related for me so thsoe are my reasons.

I actively dislike blueside; the maps and the characters, the too fresh and too clean, heroicly bright colour schemes, the standing round in Atlas in the stupid costumes, the stupid sewer trial with the one guy who never keeps up and you have to go back for out of some sense of misplace loyalty.
There is no way I'd make my lovely darkside somethings go over there. It does beg for swarms of demon masterminds roaming the streets tho, that would cheer me up no end and so I will be doing just that when possible.

Arc #40529 : The Furies of the Earth
I won't be moving any of my existing characters I don't think (I *might* recreate a couple as ATs from the other side, but they'll all keep their current morality), but I do plan to create a villainous blaster & controller, and make a brute or two heroside. Hadn't really thought about any neutral(ish) characters; I guess a couple of my mercenary types currently redside might head for the middle ground.
In general I prefer redside somewhat, but I still try to play both sides for the variety (plus the larger blueside population makes it very appealing).
I'll be transferring my robotics/traps to heroes, so when he is high enough level for peregine (forgot how to spell peregine) but by then he will be level 50. Anyways when I'm in peregine island I'll get Maria Jenkins as my contact and then ill solo her as my contact and kill like 8 or something AVs.
Oooooh I want Going Rouge NOW!!! *Stamps feet and chucks a tantrim*
Not to mention how could I have it now if I couldn't even find it for sale to bid on? Is there a way to bid for items that don't come up when I do a search for it?
