Fansproject Function-X Teaser

IIRC, function-x are supposed to be Headmasters.

Correct!

robot-japan - FANSPROJECT FUNCTION X (Headmasters)

My guesses (top to bottom, left to right):
Chromedome, Brainstorm, Mindwipe, Weirdwolf, Skullcruncher

EDIT: going by Trent's link, I am probably right. The only one missing is Minerva, which is logical since they have to design her more carefully in order to create Nightbeat out of the same mold.

but..... do I read combiner in the sub-title ?

Bought! Can't wait to get the Optimus Prime crocodile....that's my favorite episode!

sigh kinda got to get them

Theoretically headmasters do "combine"....as the head attaches to the body and is a separate robot of its own. I imagine that might be what it is referring to.

ouch.... I thought all other things

I think that refers to the combination of the Headmaster and the transtector.

Nice. I was hoping for menasor updates though.

My eyes... playing tricks on me... honestly thought these were the Stunticons!!!

I'm more excited for these than I probably should be!

I so can't wait for these!

- Gregg

Excite!

i shall be 100% buying these

No Highbrow? No Hardhead?

When are are they going to show off more of the Stunticons? I don't want to see ant more works in progress from these guys unless it is Menasor related.

i hope they are decently sized! I always wanted an updated Chromedome and Mindwipe.

Nothing is more unattractive then the FP hype machine. Will forget about this until they are released.

Dude, Headrobots already made a Hardhead, plus there's another group making a Hardhead

I'm quite Hardheaded out. I'd rather see new characters. Plus, well, Chromedome is sort of an Autobot leader of sorts. And Brainstorm is a cool guy

I'm not sure if i can call these an instant buy, but it is exciting. I am looking forward to the final results.

Do we have a Function X thread already? If not, can we just make this that one? Thread name change then.

looking at the pic again looks like we will be getting chromedome first as the hand icon is over it and the others have loading icons over them

Where stunticons?

You had me at "FansProject"! Instant preorder.

Wait........

nice. im down. toyworld has a nice hardhead coming out. not sure how it will size up with these. its huge, like igear ironhide height. how big are these?

I'm hoping the Toyworld Hardhead and these match up nicely with these. Hopefully there will be more pictures that will confirm the scale of these guys.

But at a guess I'd say they'd be on scale with Steelcore who is a power master (aka Heartmaster).

Just done some quick searching to get hopefully some idea of the scale of these guys:

Here's a picture of Steelcore beside Fan's project enhanced Rodimus. Makes him about the same height as the original Classics Prime.



Here's one of TJ's pics of the Heartmaster who you'd guess that FP would want to keep on scale with their Headmasters:



And then we've Hardhead from Toyworld beside Not-Rollbar


Grindrod (aka not Rollbar) is a decent deluxe side figure and shouldn't be that out of scale then with Steelcore. Hopefully, and judging by Fansproject standards he will be on scale with Function X and Toyworlds Hard Head shouldn't be that far out here. If someone (who has a better camera than me!) has Steelcore and Grindrod could they please post up a comparison picture if the two toys?

I'm really excited to see prototypes of these guys.
I'm curious about the size of the robot modes and how small that would make the Headmasters.

At least getting Crocodimus Prime.

Really cool. I hope that the brainstorm one has a face plate. and brainstorm colours. And hell, a small briefcase!

Nooooooo. These aren't Headmasters. They're completely new characters!

Fansproject's name is the only thing I need to confirm that I will be preordering these. The only question is how many should I order per.

It's good timing o release a Chromedome homage, given how much he's been appearing in the IDW comics lately.

Love the original headmasters, so looking forward to these. Hope they end up doing all of them.

Headmasters was one of my fav sgments of transformers bring it on

Not much new, still looks very promising. Hoping for some awesome looking headmasters!

It was only a few days ago I saw a long and eloquent post arguing why FP doesn't do (or need to do) teasing with silhouettes, renders and blurry images. yet here we are today And here we've been with pretty much any FP release lately.

They look great, well save for Minerva, she looks more than a bit daft. No idea what the Optimus croc is about though. All bought probably.
Loving the deceptibeasties.

I want that Mindwipe, the rest I can pass comfortably... maybe...

Probably a take on the Alligatocon from City of Steel, when Optimus was disassembled by the Constructicons and rebuilt into an alligator.

I think it's a neat idea. If I supported 3rd party stuff at all, I'd definitely save up for it.

Chromedome's a must get.

Chromedome and Brainstorm are a must for me. Have to see some prototype images before deciding on the rest. Oh, who am I kidding? It's Fansproject - they are all bought!!!!

Bought without hesitation. I keep waiting for Fansproject to come up with a subscription service to save me the trouble of ordering.

Really dissapointed that Chromedome and Brainstorm don't even have MTMTE-style heads. No sale on either. Chromedome especially just looks so generic. And Brainstorm doesn't even look like Brainstorm. Is that even supposed to be Brainstorm?

I am excite!

I see SPACEDRIFT.

What's a SPACEDRIFT? Is that what not-Brainstorm is supposed to be? That'd make more sense then.

Oh, no idea, that's just what it looks like to me.

Are there more photos other than the one of the silhouettes?
Just wondering where the Croctimus Prime and other comments about head style are coming from.

They're from the pics that Fansproject teased at TFcon way back when.
