    Well, Bal Dillinger was still working for them with new designs last I saw. He made the upcoming Stinger, Rocky, Red Baron and Busta toys.

    No, they didn't fall out with the designer. As you say, pure speculation.

    If only Dillinger had a Facebook page...oh, wait ;)

    Sharkticons are cute and all but I wants me my Impactor. Hopefully Presser is released in time for MMC's Carnifex.

    There should be a cash prize for the first person who get's an update out of iGear (or Dillinger) regarding Presser.

    It's not as if there's no demand.

    I wonder do they watch these forums?

    I was all excited for this, until someone pointed out it would basically be a deluxe unless they sized him differently than pictured in the renders..

    No interest in a deluxe Impactor. Tall voyager yes, Smallish Ultra yes, deluxe nooooooo. Impactor should ALWAYS be a bit bigger than Springer, and all decent versions of Springer (Hastak and 3p) and at the smallest decent deluxe to voyager height.

    I guess I'll just have to buy a second Hardbone from Toyworld and customize him.. he's the right height, right altmode pretty much, and from playing around with the idea already, could pull off a harpoon arm fairly easily..

    Maybe igear will surprise me,... but I doubt it.

    I've said this a few times now...he was designed bigger than Warbots Defendor / Springer, it was and is not the same size as Warpath.

    Whether iGear make it or not, I have no idea.

    All you'd need is the CAD file or a rapid prototype stolen from iGear.

    Anyone have either of those kicking about?

    Wow, I'd never seen these before.

    Incredibly sad that this isn't hapenning.

    Unconfirmed. It still may be on the cards. Truthfully, no-one really knows. I even asked the designer who has no idea.

    I just messaged Bal and he kindly got back to me within minutes (you listening iGear?)

    Unfortunately, being a free-lance designer, he doesn't hear much before it reaches production so no news there.

    Everyone should bombard iGear with requests until they reply...
