    They should send the design to KFC... Keith loves recoloring the hell out of a mold!

    I kinda wish MechIdeas would pick up where they left off with Top Spin and Twin Twist and give us some more Wreckers like Ironfist and Impactor, rather than make Animated stuff (as much as I liked the TFA show and figures), to be honest. Maybe MMC's release of Carnifex will give the rest of the 3Ps a much needed kick in the pants to make some more LSOTW stuff.

    That wouldn't be horrible either.

    Ideally Mech Ideas would upside the toy to the size of Apex and Geminus, then release it as Ironfist and Impactor.

    They plan to continue the line that Apex & Geminus were in. CenoKibble of MechIdeas has said many times that the Animated line and the other line will be produced at the same time.

    I am still more saddened by the loss of Not-Crankcase than any of the other variations. My Scavengers display needs more...

    With how amazing Gears and Swerve turned out, I'd love for Ironfist and Guzzle to get the "Manga Mecha Series" treatment

    They said an unnamed retailer wanted the exclusive, then canceled when orders weren't high enough.

    Which connects with other 3Ps saying that a certain HK retailer acts as the sole buyer and distributor/wholesaler of most 3P toys, and is where almost all of our favorite retailers get their 3P figures from.

    That's great! …so where's some news about the next Demo Crue offering? :p 

    This would be most acceptable as well! The Scout Guzzle we got is too Bayformery, and limited, to work as a proper Wrecker Guzzle. A little spider-tank Guzzle (or whatever you'd call the 'walking-on-treads' thing that Animated Huffer/Pipes and Cybertronian Animated Ironhide/Ratchet/Autotroopers do) would be awesome to see!

    MakeToys or MechIdeas versions of Ironfist/Fisitron and Guzzle would be more than acceptable. Yeah, I have DOTM Guzzle displayed with my Wreckers and while he's a neat little figure, he doesn't quite fit the Classics aesthetic. I had the idea of customizing a Guzzle out of the Mindset and/or Hailstorm mold (as others have done) but never found the time to do so.
