I don't think I have made it a secret that I am loving this dawn of the 3rd party era in Transformers. We have already gotten so many wonderful, and not so wonderful, pieces. With so many more on the way, which are on your "to be bought" list?

Keep this list to things that have been announced and have gone past the point of a teaser pic.

iGear
PP-05 annuonced as Ironhide and Ratchet
PP- Coneheads (If I have the money they will be mine)

TFC
Hercules

FP
Insecticons AKA CA-03-04-05

BTS
Soundwave

PE
Lazerbeak and Buzzsaw

MMC
Cyclops HoS Shockwave
Insectitrain HoS Insecticons

MAIDEN JAPAN
2 sets of Wreckgar upgrades but still waiting for him to send me a e-mail that his second batch is getting made.

From what we have seen so far, this is my list. Who's on yours?

 

TFClub Devastator
PE reflector
HoS Shockwave sigh

might change later on after looking at reviews.

 

The only thing that I fully plan on getting is the HOS Shockwave, provided the price isn't too far over $100. I may end up getting the Fansproject Insecticons, but I'm still on the fence.

 

I'm interested in iGear PP-05 announced as Ironhide and Ratchet, but we dont know much about these yet?

I'll probably get TFC Hercules, but not at all costs.

FP Insecticons AKA CA-03-04-05 will be bought.

 

Definitively:

PE Reflector, Rumble, Frenzy, Eject, Rewind, Laserbeak, Buzzsaw
FP G3 Trailer, Warbot Defender (reissue PLEASE!), Insecticons

Maybe:
iGear seekers, Arcee, Ironhide/Ratchet (depends on sculpt/size)

Eventually:
MP Megatron upgrade kit, Quintessons, Sparkplug/Spike/Daniel

Not enough $$$:
TFC Devastator

 

Its better to state what I am NOT getting on 3rd party:

TFC: Junkion headmasters
iGear: Coneheads


Everything else? I am getting. 1+ of, that 3rd party is releasing.

And I am only talking about those that will be released. I have every 3rd party that I wanted that's released. Its listed somewhere here.

 

With Third party, I don't even make a to get list. My feelings on them change so much that I pretty much jsut preorder everything and then decide once it's out.

 

FP ninja gugs
TfC hercules if possible
And maybe that new igear ppo5 if it looks decent.

 

When you do that, do you receive said product and then resell it or do you pre order and cancel your preorders?

 

FP not-secticons
TFC not-devy
Headrobots bludgeon and stronghold upgrades

possibly the Mastermind cyclops

also depends on what else FP announce for warbot 02, etc.

 

MMC Cyclops
TFC Not-Devy
FP Insecticons

 

FP insecticons for sure... and maybe, maybe that MGT Nightbird.

 

I have none of the 3rd party stuff but the ones i do want are.

Explorer and Mutioner and probably Flamebast and Warcry as well

City Commander

Protector


That's honestly it.

 

After getting a number of items, I'm losing interest in most unofficial third-party stuff.

In the full-on-knock-off category, I am interested in the dino-tape reproductions, however.

 

Just preorder and cancel.

 

There are far too many 3rd party products that I want. I think there are more third party than first party ones Im looking at.

Definitely FP Insecticons, TFC Hercules, Mastermind Shockwave, All Perfect Effect minions, Headrobots Blood and Stronghold.

Already got PE reflector and iGear coneheads/sunstorm are preordered. Anything by Fansproject is pretty much an instant buy. Waiting to see what the new iGear stuff will look like.

 

TFClub Devastator (when/if it ever comes out), Headrobots Voyager Bludgeon upgrade (when/if it ever comes out) and anything by FansProject. Otherwise, there isn't much third-party stuff that interests me or that interests me enough to justify the price.

 

being that weve waited almost THREE YEARS for igear to make a plastic box for mp prime and have yet to recieve a single in hand review of even one seeker dispite at least 7 recolors that we know of ill pass on them much less ironhide or ratchet. having said that ill definitely be getting fans project stuff this summer with a smidgeon of movie stuff.

 

TFC hercules
FP insecticons
Headrobots fort max (universe onslaught upgrade)
FP warbot defender (trying to hold out for rerelease)
G3 trailer
I told my wife how much TFC Hercules could potentially cost and she straight up laughed at me. She totally supports my TF habit, but thinks I must be going crazy.

 

FP Causality 3-4-5. I'm on the fence of Hercules, and that is purely due to price. Causality 3-4-5 are MUST gets for sure though.
