For those wondering,the maketoys swerve is an all new mold,better sized to fit the classics line than the soon to be released hasbro version.besides the drinks and tray and bfg given to him by brainstorm in the comics,he also has an interchangeable face which shows the point in the comics when he blew his own face off,ala robo skeleton.this was confirmed to me by the head guy from fans project at their booth.if you look closely at the pics of bots from the dealer room floor,the little black prototype sitting down on his but with his legs spread is the version of swerve with said skeleton face plate.thers three versions of him in there,normal and standing with the trays,alt dune buggy mode and the sitting skeleton.
Transformed
Oh, wow! Those are going to be huge. I think I'm going to need a new shelf after all
Peaugh
They're roughly the size of the old Beast Wars Ultras. Razorclaw slightly taller.
PyjamaPrime
The only thing I'm pissed about is that there's still no news on Savant. He's all we need to finish off the main Autobot Headmasters and there's still been no news on the set
Scaleface
I could not even see paying money for the FansProject psuedo-Headmasters, so I guess it's a matter of opinion on style.

Wow. I could not disagree more, especially about Hardbone. The easiest pass ever.

There were pics of the Feralcons with Azalea, and Azalea is a DX sized figure.
zfarsh
no, they will all be smaller, even Leo is only 8". Use the pic showing Hex in the mix. Hex is about same size as Quakewave
ebonyleopard
Feral Rex components. Is that photo right? Will the individual robots be almost the size of Quakewave?? There's never a photo of them and their combinded form next to anything for an accurate size reference.

Anyone know when the kickstarter for the Robo Dominion Saga Unrustable Bastards is going up or if it is already up?
jbz
Headrobots fail. They gonna lose all their audience/target base. I just want Ronin already…
TFXProtector
A friend in attendance (I didn't get to go ) said it had been canceled due to MP-13.
Good question… I'm assuming that with everything on their plate, they couldn't make it happen right now.
ryu hayabusha
maketoys what happen to the omega supreme upgrade??
IceCreamCyborg
So…. Will there be an Acoustic Wave? Maybe?
knightmare6
Thanks! I was wracking my brain on that one!
OptionZero
Maketoys Lightspeed, a component of their Computron. In black proto form
knightmare6
My brain's currently overloaded from all these gorgeous photos, but um… who's this?

well there was the ori toys stuff and the mayhem mechanics stuff that were very much people doing their own thing. and doing it well.
Ra88
Wait, why were Ori Toys there? They're not a Transformers focused company, they're closer to 3A aren't they? Indie company that makes their own stuff? Though it'd be really cool if TFCon evolved into a promotional platform for indie companies doing their own thing, not just Transformers stuff.
