    Ugliest mug goes to the original Sever head. For a long time I couldnt keep him in bit made he was so ugly. There are only a few facials that compare.

    I am SO thrilled that FT brought in a new designer (presumably) and provided better options with Grinder.

    Oh yeah, the first Sever head was also ugly, but there was something about the flattened face of Soar that was exquisitely barf-tastic.

    Tesla's original face always makes me think he's halfway to doing a duck-lips selfie.

    I have asked a couple times and the answer has been no. Tesla is dead it seems. Hopefully another company will put out a Perceptor.

    You have to send a PM to ask dalianjj, the FT rep to find out from the horse's mouth. When you find out let us know.

    Good, he was FT's most embarrassing release.

    OK, I realise it must suck for those who want a copy for their collection, but I'm sure something better will come along. Don't settle for this figure just because he's the only option. Your collection deserves better :tongue:

    I've had no problems with my copy. Not embarrassing in the least bit for me. Its an excellent version of an MP Perceptor.
    Now XTB, Apollyon? Embarrassing is way too gentle of a word to describe it......and mine is a "v2".

    I would like it if they Re Release Tesla aka perceptor, this time around they could include the extra face from lupin/weirdwolf and put a repaint of Magnificus.

    Meh, I have a v1 and I still think he's the second best MP Megs available...at least if you don't count KOs. He's not the most fun to transform, but then neither is TT's. Looks-wise, I still put him at the top of the 3P options...again, KO's excluded.

    As for this guy, he's fine. If he ever starts going for Quakewave at his stupidest prices, though...I may have to unload him.

    Anyone tried looking at their computer screen through the silver end of his lens tube?

    You're welcome.

    Any rumblings of an FT-09 Tesla reissue any time soon? Or any older Fans Toys releases for that matter?
