    Don't forget to mention the pins that allow the side to side spread on the fingers. It's such a nicer solution than the ball joints into palm that everyone else has used. Admittedly that's a method that is harder to scale down in size from Phoenix's giant status, but it's just so damned good.

    Have a look at the hands provided with the JJ Commander KO . They're like some kind of really high range gundam hands or something. They came still attached to the sprues, there were 3 or maybe four sprues, but they were all interlocked, so every piece is connected to other pieces. I still can't work out quite how its done but it provides a full range of articulation with excellent tolerances and nothing ever pops off. They are without a doubt the best articulated hands I've seen ( better even than Phoenix and the Dibots) and they were an add in with a OS KO from a pretty much unknown company. I would love to see more hands like those.
    But I'll settle for the KFC style ball joints. Even they're better than the moulded mitten hands that most are giving us .

    I’m sure this has been brought up, but is FansToys doing an opaque windshield kind of like Kups to appease all of the toon accuracy lovers like Myself? Or at least for Robot mode accuracy.

    I like MP-22 very much but I'd still like to see FT do one.

    *Sigh*

    Here I am having bought Uniquetoys Y-02 Data courier Buzzing weeks ago :p 

    Every time I \"finally\" decide to go ahead and buy a 3rd party figure only one company produces .. *BAM* another 3rd party company announces it\'s (better looking) version.

    You may end up liking UT's Buzzing more than what FT may offer with their Blurr. So far, FT has not been at their best when it comes to doing MP style Season 3 Transformers. Their Koot is not much fun to transform, neither their Apache, and now Arcee. Apache's car form is a disappointment to say the least, and Arcee's car form has gaps big enough to see through when looking straight down at it. I also bought UT Buzzing, and I love it. Great detail, great quality, and a sold figure with a good transformation. It isn't perfect either, but the pro's far out weight the cons by far. We shall see how FT's Jabber fairs in comparison, but so far, FT's track record is not at it's best for S3 Autobots. Not bad either, but not their best work. Well know how well (or not so well) of a job FT has done with Jabber once it comes out. In the mean time, enjoy Buzzing. He's awesome. :)

    Be careful what you wish for, Jabber may require some crotch swapping. :p 














    Relax FT Guardians. It's just a silly joke, nothing more. Put away the rage... lol

    You don't like the outstretched Lego man hand pose?

    It's useful for scratching an awkward itch, I think.

    Or at least give the option for those that don't care for screen accuracy. Please both camps then.

    I’d also like them to do like Koot and give us an opaque windshield option as well as the clear. But aside from those two things (clear windshield and excess “junk”) this guy does look amazing.

    I'd also like to see what the Targetmaster partner looks like.

    Not a fan of the flipper hands on a bot that tall but his hands are a bit on the small side so I get why they took the easier route. But at least a pointable index finger would be nice.
