    Okay, smarmy business from the other products aside, that Firebolt looks awesome. If that's for MP Rodimus like I think it is, then looks like I can avoid buying a redundant Hasbro MP.

    So I spoke with the maker of these this morning and it turns out two people are making the jazai powerglide and wheelie.

    X-Transbots and the person who made the repro headmaser heads.

    X-Transbots are making direct copies of the jazai items with no mods.

    The person who made the headmaster heads created the box art for both wheelie and powerglide, this will be for his versions not x-transbots.

    His version will be upscaled and have different details aswell as diecast.

    I think I'll go for the original sized Wheelie and the upscaled Powerglide then.

    wonder what the headmaster guys stuff is going to be labeled as since its not x-transbots. the versions with improved joints and diecast are the ones I'm interested in.

    Yeah it would suck to have a design ripped off that you made what? 5 figures from the mold? Now more people will have your design that you never did anything with. My heart is actually bleeding little tears right now. :(
