    Kup's biography was very well written, and I also love the artwork! I also really like the coloring job on the card, Kup stands out against the red background very nicely, and The tech-specs are still easy to read! :D 

    I can't wait to read what the others! :D

    It's an interesting idea. Assuming that the head molds aren't already degraded too far to make such a thing happen, the main issue would simply be one of pricing... Low enough to get people to actually buy then, but high enough not to damage the value of the full figures....

    Sweet, I'm starting to like the fact we get to see Shitpiece, before he felt like his name.

    Nice. Love the ship name, and that's a nice bio as well. I'll definitely be nabbing the comic this year, I think the set theme and fiction sounds awesome, I just wish I was feeling the toys.

    looks cool. Why is the ship called 8 track though, it would have been better to call it something to do with the Turbomasters if you ask me

    I like the art it looks much better then the toy and his head kind of looks like Springer. His bio is interesting and its good to get a reason behind his weird right arm.

    LOLZ. THIS and QFT! I take box-art as an indication of a character's "coolness" and Uniqueness factor when i buy a TF. :thumb 
    Kup's box art is great-- Out with the old bucket of bolts and in with the young-bot. :D

    Is that supposed to be some sort of subtle reference to the title given to the Cybertron Defense team and the common abbreviation used for them?

    Or just a joke about being old and/or obsolete?

    That's Hasbro's doing, not Fun Pub's. I've hated it, but I didn't realize an explanation existed.

    ^^ I thought that was what you meant. I like the first way with the points up. It looks cool and will add to Scourge... Less than 2 months!
