    I wouldn't mind, even if its GF/Cybertron there's demand for a Signal Lancer, especially since Nonnef teased theirs and never made it. I'm fully supporting this

    My dude you're doing the Lord's work and I fully support anything from the UT (or anything really) you decide to do.

    Noticed a comment about how Galaxy Meteor faired and I think it's lukewarm reception was actually for a couple reasons..
    1. The toy they were looking to redo and subsequently one-up, even by today's standards, is still a rocking figure. That Voyager Starscream still looks good, poses well enough, and it's gimmick is still to this day the most flawlessly executed gimmick of the whole line. So I think most people were still content with the original

    2. The character itself just wasn't that popular.
    Now like don't get me wrong, I love GF Screamer and I'm sure a lot of people do. But of the three versions of Starscream from the Unicron Trilogy he's easily the least interesting in that he's just a bad guy who does bad guy things and one time he was huge. Like he's not really anyone's favorite as a character..but yaknow...there is one version of Screamer from the trilogy...one who a lot of people think is the best version of the character ever..one who to this day hasn't had a toy that really lived up to his on-screen presence..

    Agree entirely on both points. They should have lead with a character who was either a fan favorite or who's toy was in serious need of an update, and to make the obvious point you made even more painfully so. Yes, an MP ARMADA STARSCREAM would have had the potential to sell better than porn. Hell i would have been, and still am totally down for TWO of those, regular red and an "im gonna shoot a laser at Unicron with my dying breaths because my balls of steel are so big" "I look like Thundercracker" blue repaint

    I mean you really don't have to twist my arm. Once things get going with Cold Constructs, the only limitation I'll have will be time.

    Wow. Woooooow. Scattorshot was one of my favorite designs from Cybertron. I am so so so in. Full support from me on virtually all future UT endeavors. Going to get an order in for this fella as soon as I can.

    No worries, all was said with levity. If you read a wink and a smile into any of my posts, you'll probably get the tone I intend. :D

    If you are ever offended by anything I write, picture a 30-something Santa saying it with a playful grin. See if it improves on you 'cuase that's me. ;)

    I got an idea I'm sure everyone here will agree with that should be made, Energon Ironhide. In all seriousness, I'd suggest Armada Cyclonus as something you should try and create.

    Optimus would be a nice start IMO, if you can improve it to the 100% potential. I want to support you.

    This is great!!! Quick question tho: Would you consider making it smaller, or is it too late for that? He's a bit on the big side.
