    Just dropped by to let you know that we've added a much closer look at one of the items in our accessory pack, Ratchet's Magnets. It's a prototype of the final working models. The final product will differ still (in a number of ways) from what is shown. Check it out here on the alterations blog for even more pics.

    There will be more previews along with a preorder coming very soon.
    We're really excited about this one. Looking forward to showing you more soon.

    Same here!

    I'm not sure about this set. Its full of great ideas. But does anyone else think that Ratchets magnets look more like blades then magnets?

    Doesn't seem like it would be difficult to make something similar myself. Thanks for the idea.

    As much as I like the animated line, and as nice as this stuff is turning out, I don't see myself buying any of the animated add-ons at this time. I like the figures, but couldn't really get into the cartoon as much as I tried to, so this set just doesn't do much for me. I would probably be excited if I followed the cartoon cause it does look pretty cool.

    Since I had issues with the original figure's magent tools, I definitely want these...It's just the thought of having to drop 50 bones for toy accessories kind of turns me off a bit. Especially when all I really want are these magnet tools for Racthet.
