    I'm a little curious about the animal combiner they teased us.

    I haven't heard of any. I do think Defender (with a head/weapon swap) would redeco into an excellent Roadbuster.

    Maybe it has to do with the way WreckGar "busted" in on the FP Junkion party?

    If FP puts out Menasor and the three Junkions this year I will be happier than a pig is shit. I am hooked on troop building these Junkions thanks to MJ and three FP versions would just add to the diversity within the planet Junk.

    I have no interest in Heartmaster or Roadbuster cuz neither have anything to do with the show.

    Broadwise will be bought but more becuase he is a FP figure that appears in a show rather than just being a show character I want. Yes FP has that power over me.

    I can not wait for the Junkion and Menasor news. Hopefully the update is less than a month away.

    Not interested in Roadbuster or Heartmaster either.
    I personally am not a fan of 3rd party companies doing original characters (I know, I know), but hey - some people are bound to enjoy it, so it's all good.
    99% sure I'll get Menasor
    90% sure Junkions will be mine
    50/50 on Broadside

    You know what really sucks? There are those on this very board that know everything and have seen everything. It sucks cuz I envy them.

    But really I do thank them for the insight they have given so far.

    If it is the Stunticons...please let them release them as a box set. The piece-meal route really sucks.

    Early word is that Motormaster will be part of the Causality line and the rest of the guys are part of the Crossfire line. Now will the last four be released individually, two packs or all at once is unknown so far.

    Anyone thinking that they might tweak their Wreck-Gar's design, so that it can be compatible with Hasbros'?

    Nothing has been cast in stone yet.
    But,
    isn't that wonderful if you can get them separately, and not have to spend too much in one month? :)

    Nope because at the end of the day I want them all in one shot.

    I think between reveal and sale date people will have plenty of time to save up.

    Just look how painful it has been piece mealing Hercules together. How many pictures of an arm did we see when we had only Exgraver out? The same is true as each individual piece was released. The most exciting moment was getting him 2/3 full because at the end of the day the majority of people want the combined mode not the individual bots.

    I hope FP puts out a boxset first at a reasonable price. This being FP I can see a scramble city combiner selling for well under $300.

    That won't happen. At least not initially. Maybe for the re-release, but expect the first run to always be singles.

    3rd Party groups aren't made of money. It's expensive enough as it is to finance the production of one figure, let alone 5+. It's not going to be done in one fell swoop. They'll sell one figure, recoup costs, and move onto the next (or maybe buffer two at a time, just to keep a timely release going, whatever).

    A sign that they're still running is good.
