    call my a cynical fart but to me the Junkion head just looks like the regular head for Wreak Gar... only some one drew on a visor rather then just doing the glow eyes as the horns and the shapes are all the same bar said visor

    Why is Hasbro the bad guy? They own the characters and all concepts relating to it. FansProject doesn't have any legal and moral obligation or right to make (what are essentially) knock offs of official Transformers products.

    There is so many things wrong with these statements it's hard to address them all.

    Also a lot of people only paid $40 each for the Gentei Coneheads.

    I know, right? I mean, how dare Hasbro make money from their own products. :rolleyes2 
    They're called exclusives for a reason; there are far less of them than regular toys.
    I didn't pay anything like $100 each for my Henkei TC & Skywarp. You're making up figures.
    And you do realise they have different paint apps, right? The same moulds might be available but the same toys aren't.

    I was thinking the same thing. I believe the silhouette is hiding the actual shape of the head pretty effectively.

    This stance you have taken is silly. Hasbro has every right to make that toy, it's their character. If it prevents FansProjects from releasing their Collector figure or cuts into sales numbers then they should have taken the possibility of a Hasbro release into account.

    However I am sure that both toys will have considerably different styles to them so if Collector gets released, it may still sell to those who like the more robotic sculpt style better than the more 'organic' Hasbro one.

    I am personally not sure if I will go for Collector, possibly not as it all depends on price. I like third party manufactures because they offer something that Hasbro does not, that's not the case here even if Collector was announced years ago.
