Say, have you considered doing a Captain America crossover-to-Impactor conversion kit? Like, a head, cannon and harpoon hand? Or just a head, even.

I still think that's a fantastic idea in spite of FP's bugs. I have Stormbomb, who is a great figure, but having a mini-swarm of smaller bugglies (a la the Scrapaci) would be awesome in a Classics or FOC display. The Insecticons did like cloning themselves, after all. Please, don't shelve that one just yet---there seems to be a lot of potential there!

^ Agreed I never got the FP stuff prefer yours.

Oh nnoooo please stop! I've just watched episodes of TFP season 2 and the insecticons are awesome. I've always wanted articulated legion class insects...
Don't tempt me, cuz it's gonna take up a whole month to make them perfect..

Edit: And in Transformers: Exodus, they can combine! Imagine that...

It would be nice to see combiner from fakebusker83.... *shifty eyes*

NICKBOT · 05-07-2012, 12:54 PM

Hey Ariel would you consider making Bruticus attachments for the FP figures? I know this seems redundant but Flameburst and Warcry could really use them. An alternate set of feet, hands, and attachments would be aces!

My homie knyghtmare2021 had tested version 1.0 of those blasters, so that is probably it.
The earlier post on them is here.

No, I have not and I don't think I will consider this set, sorry. I have too much going on right now...

Well, I don't do 3rd party stuff cuz that will make me a 4th party, amirite?
But no, I'm sorry I'll have to turn this down. What's wrong with the current FP Brute anyway? I'd thought that is the best thing ever, it's the crown jewel of my collection. (at least until some kind soul offers to send me a green Maketoys Giant that will be very much appreciated thx...)

No, no, no. I love my Bruticus but I want to combine another one! And Flamblast and Warcry didn't have the add-on parts included. Does that make sense? I want additional Brutici!

So here's the update for all you guys. Please read if you want to know what's going on with the Lemon and the stuff that will be coming out.

Currently on my plate I'm working (or going to work) on:
TF: Prime voyager Starscream set
TF: Prime deluxe Knockout set
Potentially some robotic insect(s)
DOTM Dread set (Crowbar, Crankcase)

And samples under testing are:
TF: Prime deluxe Arcee's blasters
TF: Prime deluxe Cliffjumper's blasters

As all of you who are familiar with me, you will remember that I mentioned I'm on a hiatus a few months ago as I need to move on and get a 'real' job, pay the bills and get beer money. That has remained the same and the only change is that I did get some job offers and I'm considering them now; most likely I'll be hired by the end of the month.

How does this affect the Lemon? Well, first off I'll like to reserve the right to not take anymore requests, as this is going to be relegated as a hobby, which by definition means I only have my weekends to be Ariel Lemon and I want to spend that time doing things I like. Hence, I'm kinda serious about it. If I'm not ready and open to requests, I'll ignore said requests.

All the projects I mentioned above will be completed in due time. Probably not by the end of the month (Sorry Monalazabeak, happy birthday!) but eventually. It's really been a good, long run folks! And I'm happy and proud to leave this little legacy.

Well, at least until I'm jobless again.
