More than that, what is the point in making a third party Trailbreaker? Hasbro is going to make Traibreaker eventually. Trailbreaker/Hoist and Skids are all that is left of the original cars aside from the minibots.

 

Does FP have a new/different designer? Those designs dont look like the style they normally have.

 

Oh lord.. So glad MMC has jumped on the combiner trend, and so glad they're doing Predaking. looks awesome!

 

3rd parties are stepping it up big time! I don't know how long this can last before there are just too many 3p toys and not enough fan dollars to keep the whole thing from collapsing in on itself, but It's a great ride!

...and I want almost everything shown.


Hasbro is officially surpassed for this year. MMC and FP are now 1A and 1B. Can't wait to see how Hasbro comes back swinging. Amazingness is sure to come from all sides.

 

Coooooooooooooooool!!!!

 

Weirdwolf, Chromedone, and Mindwipe!!!

 

Well I would rather have had an MMC overlord but this doesn't mean I wont see it, I really hope some one messed up and that overlord isn't 21 inches tall, that is just insane and well kinda pointless if he's mean to fit with any classics line, I guess he could be an MP though.

 

Headmaster Alligator Optimus Prime! HA!

I'd guess he will also come out in Skullcruncher colors.

 

Is it weird that I'm most excited about that Alligator Prime Headmaster?

 

thats what im wondering. im not sure if im into the style change.

 

Did Headrobots mention if they are still planning to do the Brainstorm kit for DOTM Skyhammer?

Wow with these offerings, Hasbro will really have to step up their game for the next classics run, or more likely they'll release the legal department.

 

21 inches? ..... 7 inches taller than Unicron? Whats the point? where would you set him up? you can't display him with anyone. Paaaassss. Really nothing there immpressed me, I think Menace may sadly be dead.

 

Oh wow, that Warbug looks hella cool.

EDIT: Wait, what? That's the Deluxe Insecticon Ransack? I assume the parts to turn them into vehicles are optional then?

 

yeah I'm not really impressed by those FP headmasters. Still very early though.

how tall is Hercules again?

 

I am fairly certain that FansProject has always been a collaboration of several designers who have varying amounts of influence over each project.

Could be like a writing staff - everyone gets to do their features, but everyone proofs, edits, or otherwise collaborates to get things done properly.

The Function X series could all be the work of one guy/set of guys - they are all . . . chunky on a diet.

 

Does it have a base mode?

 

i really don't understand why you are in this hobby, you hate everything practically

seriously, Overlord is suppose to be huge! you can display him with the wreckers coming out from hasbro, its gonna be awesome!

but on topic, i'll buy all of those headmasters, ALL OF THEM. god damn i love you fansproject

GIVE ME THAT MINERVA

 

Also from the front page news post:

More from FansProject. Their Deluxe Insecticon versions of their Insecticons will have remolded alternate modes, to allow them to turn into vehicles. Their Ransack turns into a jet.

I remember hearing this at Botcon 2011. Glad to know the info was correct . . .

 

21 inches is too tall for Overlord. He's just be too monstrous in most collections. I like big bots, but I think that would push an expensive toy into unfeasibility for no good reason.

Most of this stuff looks pretty sweet... if I can afford it, which I'm sure I can't in most cases.

What's the deal with Igear Cliffjumper? Last I heard, that project was cancelled. Did they say that they were going ahead with it??
