    Hey guys, as I do not do direct sales any longer on here, I ask if you guys continue posting Renderform updates in the 3rd party forum, as all products are being carried officially by most site sponsors. :)  This will also help with brand awareness for me, as there is more traffic in that forum than here.

    Venksta, any chance that you will tackle Movie SpaceCase?

    I wanted to, but that figure seems to be a bit too rare to do a proper upgrade release for. I'm thinking maybe a recolor of the 2.0 Skyfall kit to use on Universe Silverbolt to make into Spacecase would be better.

    And while I'm in here, and if anyone is still reading, any interest in Junkion heads still?

    Personally, I'd love to see new heads for Dragstrip, Spacecase, Seaspray and Botcon Spinister. They would all float my boat :)

    I personally think Junkion heads have been overdone and readily available for those who want them.

    Throwing my hat in the ring, I'd be interested in a Space Case head too =)

    As well as an Erector and Animated Roadbuster (for Leader Ultra Magnus) heads. Pretty much anything you design/make I'll be up for =)

    and Happy New Years!

    I'd be interested in a Junkion head for Prime Arcee. Tecrom did an excellent one on shapeways for the RID one but I'd like something for the FE version as well. I'd quite like a few different head options for FE Arcee to be honest.

    The one I'm still most looking forward to is Erector for 2007 Movie Mudflap.

    Quick list of what is planned for the next 3 releases. Galvatron upgrade for the Nike IDW Megatron repaint, faceplate for FP Smart Robin, and a upgrade for TFSS 1.0 Ultra Mammoth. These are currently planned for released by March. After that, I'm looking at Leo Prime, Darkwind and Skyfall/Skyjack 2.0 kits.


    Yup, still on the table. :) 

    Dragstrip for sure. Seaspray's stock head can't be removed, last I checked, so it makes it harder for making a new head. Botcon Spinister is possible, but would have to be a low run kit.

    Which ones are named? I was thinking of the ones you could actually see in TFTM. But the designs would have my own spin to them, so not to clash with what MJ has released.

    I'm open to anything, as long as the final look of the figure doesn't require major painting by customers...

    Still planning, hopefully there is enough people wanting it to justify a run.

    You want to start a generic thread over there for us to use? A generic Renderform thread makes it easier to subscribe too then to wait for things to come up. Did a search for Renderform and found last thing on there was the Banshee blade.

    I'm thinking a generic thread in the Fan Art forum would probably be better for a catch all/general design discussion. That way, once products are officially announced under the Renderform label, they can get their own threads in the 3rd party forum. Also, a thread in Fan Art would allow me to show stuff for other 3P companies I'm working on. I'll look into making a new thread later today, with some sneak peaks at upcoming projects.

    Definitely interested in these. Would you be releasing them off Renderform's site? Please do.

    Oh, I'm going to want that Smart Robin faceplate. The face isn't bad, by any means, but I dig the faceplace look of the G1 figure.

    From 2013...

    And now, 2014....

    Really? I still have an extra Grapple and a Movie Mudflap sealed in their boxes waiting for the day that you get around to making these.

    Or do you mean "enough to justify selling it through web merchants"? I can see where BBTS might not be sanguine about trying to sell 50 copies of what some people consider a TF HoF joke that [redacted. There's no way to end that sentence without it turning into a double entendre].

    I don't think I can sell them through online retailers. Their hesitant to deal with accessories and kits for older figures. The two Erector kits would most likely be released online through my website as a very small run, which would be made to order. Its the main reason I really haven't gotten to it sooner. I feel the Erector buzz has faded after Botcon 2011.

    Btw, things do change alot with my schedule and plans. For example, I've been sitting on the Steelcore head upgrades (inspired by Energon Ultra Magnus) since November. I had some issues with a retailer about carrying it, and ended up loosing interest and moving on to other things. I'll probably get back to it in a month or two, since the molds have been ready for production already.

    Yes, yes and yes!!!! So glad to hear that you'll be working on a Darkwind and Skyfall 2.0 kits. Missed out on the original run and have been kicking myself for it.
