Maketoys has updated their website:

Maketoys » HIMED & KATANA

 

I'm absolutely shocked that they've had prototypes complete for however long now, and this is the first time we've seen Himed's vehicle mode, and Katana's everything outside of arm mode (even his name, for that matter).

Both are looking pretty damned good.

 

Nice. Can't wait for Groove and Streetwise to drop so that I can actually see them up close.

 

Looking good but WHERE IS AXLE????

 

Looking good.

I'm hoping MT's current flurry of MP-style activity hasn't made this group less of a priority for release. Where is Axle indeed..........?

 

Indeed he was slated for June and seems to be nowhere still so I guess they're still manufacturing stock and I assume Cupola's production slowed him down at some point.

I love what they've done with Blades. Finally a helicopter combiner figure that actually makes good use of his rotor. FirstAid eh seen plenty of pics of him before and he's still the least interesting figure of this set but I do like how they managed to turn such a blocky van in to such a slim bot.

 

They look good

 

Holy Fansproject Batman! Could these guys look any more like the FP Stunticons? So...Shared designer confirmed?

 

This had better be better than the Stunticons. It's not that the latter is bad, it's just you flip stuff, turn things around, etc, etc and the end result is ... so so.

 

Where the hell have you been? The shared designer aspect has been noted ever since MakeToys began.

 

Oh wow, surprisingly shocked at how much I like this set so far. Love how clean the alt modes look.

 

Maketoys guy designed those Stunticons iirc.

 

Wow they look amazing. Makes TFC look even worse than it already did

 

Using Blades rotor blades as Katana's is kind of genius. Not the first time ever that this has been done, but doing it for Blades just makes sense and I'm glad they went that direction.

Kind of an uneven bunch though, as each figure doesn't look like it belongs in the same 'world' as the rest. Will reserve judgement until we see them all in color standing next to one another, but right now I'm undecided as to whether this set works aesthetically or not.

 

They look cool. Really liking Katana and his sword-happy design.

 

really happy with these guys.... just need to actually ship the first 2 out... nudge nudge maketoys.

 

Why didn't they redesign First Aid to look like a real ambulance? Or at least make him look like MTMTE, otherwise why make it when Hasbro already made a real one.

 

What is the point of making more Third-Party Protectobots considering Hasbro's official Combiner Wars versions are far superior AND far more affordable?!

 

Where do you buy your pot?
