    This is awesome! I'd gladly pay 20-25$ for each if you made all the other unused head designs. THough, getting some replicas of the Dinocasettes and making those avaliable would be the best thing ever (you could sell them renamed, like JUstitoys does with their stuff which Hasbro seems to tolerate).

    I scanned the unused designs from the ARK compendium - sorry about the blurs, it's a very big book and cannot be flattened on the scanner.

    My favourites are the chameleons, the wolf and the dugong - the latter is simply awesome in both modes.

    well I have a Weirdwolf with no head, so I figured he may live again (plus he looks evil enough for his head too :D )

    I cannot think of anything more awesome than a Dugong headmaster. Headrobots - make it so! ;)

    I'd love the alligator, but there are several cool designs in that book. Not sold on the Cobra though, it seems like solid work, but the look doesn't do it for me. Hothead? I'd give up my left (or right, you pick whichever one you like best) kidney for that. Seriously, while I can't see myself buying Cobra, a donation of whatever profit you'd make from selling one isn't out of the question if that would increase the odds of getting a hot head.

    I like the humanoid ones - they have that cylindrical arm look that is a bit like Targetmasters.

    I was wondering does that book contain any designs that complement these - like Animal mode Powermasters or more Targetmasters ?

    I think something worth doing is Targetmasters (much like Universe Nightstick) but based on the other characters - Hotrod's Targetmaster seems quite sensible to do (to fit Classics Rodimus) also Blowpipe -Slugslinger's companion (for Energon Slugslinger).

    But if you fellas want a serious suggestion i'd say make the 'Roller' that was going to be Optimus Prime's headmaster and would be compatible with Powermaster Optimus.

    Or if we are talking about larger pieces then what about a better God Bomber - based more on the prototype - or even the Llama Triplechanger (that would be a real challenge for someone).

    It's funny all these companies that get hold of ol' G1 molds it's a shame they never find the mold for the Diaclone Helicopter Triplechanger or Roadbuster and remake those.

    Sorry but we have too many projects on our plate to entertain those ideas. Radicons section is your best bet.

    However if you want a roadbuster then I suggest you get the Brave series Mugen Calibur by CM's.
