I seem to remember that colour scheme being shown as a joke - but who knows, maybe as an exclusive somewhere?
Kinda interested in Brainstorm, Chromedome and Wierdwolf. The early concept sketches didn't interest me at all but the silhouettes give me a glimmer of hope. I will definitely wait until test shot images pop up before I decide to fit these into my budget.
I'd buy Optimus Prime crocodile. I hope they do an Autobot and Decepticon version of ever mold, so it's both Optimus and Skullcruncher. Combiner feature would be nice too. I remember hearing that the Fansproject guys at TFcon said the color slides for the alligator and jet are just jokes, they are Skullcruncher and Brainstorm colors, but I WOULD BUY A OPTIGATOR! I hope the heads are backwards compatable with G1 Headmaster plugs.
For people who aren't digging the heads, just a reminder.... these are HEADMASTERS. If you don't like the head, odds are somebody will make new ones.
The other ones are completely blacked out, but for what it's worth. You can see not-Chromey's got some weapon storage on his arms.
Why is Brainstorm colored like that? Is that supposed to be a homage to something? Seems familar but I can't quite place my finger on it. Looks very similar to Sonic Bomber though.
The funny thing is that IIRC the Stunticons were never teased at all... FP just showed the prototypes at TFCon. These ones, on the opposite, have been teased twice. Moreover, they look like they've been made by a different designer. Anyway, I want that Chromedome sooooo bad!
As much as I love FP, I think I'm a pass...can't keep on spending and going to focus on what appeals to me.
I'll definitely give them a chance once we see a more concrete product, but damn I don't like the change in aesthetic. I wish these were closer in looks/designs to what we are used to from FansProject. These are so far removed from the CC/Protectot/Warbots/Stunticons/Insecticons looks-wise. I'm not saying these are poorly-designed or anything...I just wish they would FansProjectify them. The shame of it is that I really WANT to like Chromedome in particular since he has been pretty heavily featured in IDW's More Then Meets the Eye comic.
So these figures are supposed to be representing the case from Headmasters is that right? If so then is Minerva a part of the group?
