    Dr.Wu should make them in both partners and MP scale. Many people here collect both classics and MPs. Double the sales.

    Official MP Spike has a serious case of jaundice (that and no eyes). XD

    Really odd that Dr. Wu made the Dr. so dang tall (maybe he's a giant among men).

    Wow, he really is a lot bigger! I'd quite like them to do a Spike and Sparkplug at that scale too...
    Couldn't have said it better :) 
    From this it seems Arkeville is practically HA size. Would it have killed them to include the extra articulation? I might buy him and try to mod him with HA parts or something.

    I accept that scale will always be off when it comes to Transformers, but people don't have those size differences.:lol 

    Also, I haven't bought Spike and Sparkplug yet, but if the human character's sizes aren't going to match up then I guess I shouldn't even bother and just be happy with my MP Spike and PVC Daniel.

    Yeah, damn about sums it up. Spike and Sparkplug scale pretty decent with my current collection, and their size lets me sneak the megabloks Halo guys in with them.

    Some company should make all the human/small characters sized to MPs and sell em in sets.
    Like a good guys set and a villains set. Im sure those would sell very well.

    That is one sweet looking figure.

    I look forward to the 3P company that starts making Humans for TF lines.

    Talk about easy money.

    Easy money as long as they're in scale with each other.


    This however is ridiculous.

    I got a message from Dr. Wu today indicating he would be interested in making more G1 human or alien characters. Probably based on how well Dr. of Evil sells. I told him I want to see a Chip Chase and a Carly.

    Arbitraily, in the absence of any other human toys, or if the HA scale was the only source of Human toys, this isn't so bad, but while there are several other flavors of human guys AND many of the larger toys have useable cockpits that are too small for him, this is just not working for me at the $30 level. $5, absolutely. $10, probably. $15, sure, I'm a sucker. But not 30.

    Of all the available scales, HA is my least favorite, as it refuses to blend in at all with ANYTHING other than other HA stuff.

    Other humans from various generations for reference:
