    Encline is not going to be happy..... although his will most likely be much more detailed.

    I don't know what to make of these silhouette images. I mean - How does a silhouette make me wanna open my wallet? Wouldn't a shadowed prototype have been a more effective sell? You know - show a little but don't give too much away?

    Oh & I definitely agree w/ Payton in that I'd much rather Encline's masterpiece than Xovergen's teased pic... :)

    I wonder how big it will be. Definitely not to scale with G.I. Joes I imagine. That thing would be very big and super expensive.

    Still this is very cool.

    You know, if all these little companies merged together, they could do some serious damage. Depending on price, I want one.

    Now ask what Don is getting for this - nothing. I hope they at least send him a copy.

    Hot damn, that is beautiful. Hopefully it'll be somewhat affordable.

    Was this "Dominator" a matching Megatron concept? I see the sketch but don't know my Joe toys past the Hiss tank and the Trouble Bubble. If both are done I'll be down, but not just Prime. I don't care for these one-off concepts, I prefer to collect a number of toys with an underlying theme.

    Yeah, Megatron was a matching concept, though the original Joe vehicles came out in different years. The Megatron concept turned into Destro's Dominator, an early 90s Cobra vehicle that could turn from a tank to a helicopter.

    And then Hasbro could shut them all down at once... No thanks.
