TF Club TFC-004 "Gear Of War" Weapon Set

I'm going to take a guess that these are TF Club only right??? An exclusive only to their members I mean.

TF Club is a seperate company from the Transformers Collector's Club.

Anyone have a score card of what Transformer parts companies like this exist and what they produce? I'm losing track. I thought it was just FansProject and the one that did the Ratchet and Ironhide heads...



Thanks
Chris

Because the second one is Fire Convoy/RID Prime

I know, right? I started mentally transforming him as soon as I saw the photo.

That was pretty much how the Autoscout looked in the episode, though.

I'm definitely looking forward to this set!

Really hope BBTS/TFSOURCE will have these for sale.

i got a question people

when it comes to the rid build team and classicsuniverse grindcore they have both been repainted over the years sporting the g1 constructicons colorscheme

and we have all seen over time that energon barricade can make for a rather believable mixmaster in both overall colorscheme, robot/vehicle mode and as a lower left leg for devastator

we have also seen that cybertron primus and armada/energon classics universe unicron can also serve as a suitable set of shoulders, upper arms, elbows, lower arms and hands as well as serve as a suitable lower torso waist, hips upper legs and knees for devastator

while cybertron super starscream can also serve as a suitable devastator head as well

i got a question

will hasbro ever go in together with lego to create a set of interlocking combiner parts in which said parts are made from a combination of technic/bionicle/exoforce parts and repackage them with the unicron/primus parts asa add on set that a fellow fan can purchase through the fan club?

SOLD for Auto Scout.

I love the scout drone, and the weapons look great too... this is a must buy, and has convinced me to pick up Inferno.

No.

Agreed! If the tape doesn't fit Soundwave's or Blaster's tape deck and the missile launchers for the Universe/Classics Autobot cars are too big I'll have to pass on this set. But this is just a concept for now. So I may become more interested with the actual pieces; all except for the ladder and hose gun for Inferno.

Oh man. All these are cool. Autoscout covers the last generic character from G1 not to have a toy right? lol

I like the Autoscout cassette, but I don't see myself buying a whole set just for that.

I don't even know what a sacling ladder is.

ohhhh i like!

this better not be only for the club. thats sucks if it is.

ha ha gears of war weapons set? ! that is a strange title... if you ask me !

how much

Oh holy crap, missile launchers that are customizable. I think I might have a heart attack. These companies are doing so many great things lately. They shall be rewarded with $$$.

QFT. TF customs are way too damn expensive...

QFT!

It's been more than 20 years since I've wanted a tape Auto-Scout toy!

Too bad the set is probably going to be more expensive due to the size of Inferno's ladder, which IMO is unnecessary.

Yep, that you did! Your custom makes this thread a full 3/3 Radicons sweep too:

Radicons FTW!

Its you can't go after these companies they are all complete copies of radicons sigh

And here I was expecting targetmaster lancers. Why'd they have to crush my hopes?

Seriously though it's pretty cool, but not something that screams its usefulness to me so I'll probably pass on it.

More for you guys though I guess. ^^

Well, those ideas aren't exactly original. Fair game for all.

Wow very cool. Must have.

Wow. I would love to have all of these, even though I don't have the figures (except Soundwave). I especially like the scout o: I just recently read about that cassette and was wishing there was a toy~

SO only one launcher per set or we gonna have 4 of em in the set?

"gear of war"


heh


funny


>__>

Hey that stuff looks pretty cool and yet not from Hasbro...huh.

The shoulder missiles launchers look a bit large. The Inferno ladder will be fantastic. I do not care about the cassette thing.

With this, I just might get Henkei Inferno after all.

An animation only Soundwave cassette.
Its from season 2, A Prime Problem.

I'm all over this set. LOVE g1 cassettes, and my universe twins could use some extra firepower. I may have to get the new Inferno just for this set. Sweet.

Holy Mother Shit! I like those upgrade set! especially Soundwave's Cassette research Bot...

I will get it if the price isn't too high. Cool stuff.

i forget is this the same company that is making the roller? or the battle roller?

Yup, TFC/TFClub, who also made the Starscream Coronation set, Allspark cube, and Movie Prime blade.

I have to say I felt like screaming when I saw this. I mean, this was inevitable and all, but it I think it looks better than mine (rocket launcher that is).

I desperately, DESPERATELY need for there to be a cowl/head wings for Inferno. Honestly, the ladder is optional for me, but I really can't imagine Inferno without his iconic G1 headgear. I'd be willing to shell out megabucks for something like that. I DO like the hand... um... squirter-thingy though.

I agree with the sentiment that the rocket launchers could be scaled down a bit. And the auto-scout is awesome.

I think that people who are bothered by high prices on custom stuff like this are barking up the wrong tree... I don't believe that any of the people who get into making stuff like this are doing it to turn a massive profit. Plastic injection-molding setups can't be cheap, and unless you want to go into business for yourself, customizers are stuck doing a LOT LOT LOT of work to make something like this themselves. You radicons make it look easy, but for the rest of us it's a lot simpler and less time-consuming to give someone else a chunk of change and have it done quickly.

I hate to say it, but I agree.
And I think this set looks completely Bad-@$$!!! I'm down, even the ludicrous scale is pretty cool, at least to me. Anyone know cost and release date? the guy who figured on $80 (ugh) sounded about right, eh.

If you take a closer look at Universe Inferno, you'll see he has the "wings", as part of his head sculpt, on the back.

Nah, the white rifle and rocket launcer were common for Sideswipe with regards to the cartoon and G1 toy. It was just a matter of time before someone would make an actual kit to sell. So it's not like I stumbled onto something. If anything, I assume people will start using Classics Rodimus' gun as a SS launcher if they don't agree with the pricing for this kit (which is TBD).

Those are freakin cool. Especially the Scout Tape! I hope these aren't that expensive.

I like how TFC diversifies in its projects allowing collectors of different series to have an extra customized accessory.
TFC-01 Movie Optimus Prime Blade (3 colors)
TFC-02 Movie AllSpark cube (3 colors)
TFC-03 Masterpiece Starscream Coronation Set (2 colors)
TFC-04 Universe Classic/G1 Series/Henkei Gear of War Set
I can't wait to see what the finished product looks like.

You hate to say that you agree with me, or you hate to say that it's true about custom stuff being really expensive to produce?

Oh wow! I hadn't seen those before. A neat little easter egg hidden in there.

Still want a big ol' cowl and white wings, though.

Just because there isn't a huge ladder on top doesn't mean those trucks don't carry laddes on top. The ones they usually have are smaller and can be removed from the truck. Here's a link to a pic to see it clearer, but I'm pretty sure even the one you posted has a ladder on top too

nachohat.org - Gallery - Midland Fire Trucks

My point here is that just about every fire truck in existense has some sort of ladder on it no matter the size or primary function ie pumper trucks can still make use of having a ladder. Sure the one TFC is adding is a bit big but so are the rocket launchers on Sideswipe as far as the digital images are concerned

I'd like to see the new Ladder be usable in Robot mode either so it fits on his arm a bit like Cybertron Mudflap's crane arm. or so he can fire it over the shoulder like RID Optimus' Ladder-zooka. I'm not bothered if he couldn't do that before to me that would be something that would make the accessory more worth while if it was usable in both modes and not just to make the fire truck look pretty.
