    Yeah, in my imagination it's not hard to get from this:

    To this and this:

    i don't care about any of this... i want IGear to release their Presser figure (aka Impactor) IGear was never an MP company and i don't want them to become one. There are already so many of them now, all releasing essentially the same things over and over again...

    the battlechargers? ok MAYBE (but was anyone really dying for MP versions of them though?) but ANOTHER MP Ironhide? As their "we are back guys!" release?

    bad call.

    Not sure I agree. I've never liked any of the MP-sized Ironhide releases, official or otherwise. I'm rather interested in the OS version with all the fixes, but only if someone makes one resized at his normal MP scale.

    But having another go at him via a different company? There's a possibility I might bite.

    If these ever come out...

    Not to turn this thread into the automotive forum but.......this is a Trans Am, an 89 GTA, just happens to be mine. The Trans Am has a aero package (think, body kit) that the base Firebird does not have. It changed throughout the years. The early cars 82-83 (think KITT) didn't have this aero package. Imo, G1 Runamuck should be a Firebird. Trans Am came with a rear spoiler (think KITT again) standard, i don't think Runamuck was shown to have a spoiler. Yes, you could get that spoiler on the base car too but the TA came with them standard. Then again, G1 Sunbow animation errors and all......... 2012-06-03_05-52-34_888.jpg

    it's only now just dawned on me that Runaboat is a Lotus Esprit mk1. for the longest time I had him and runamuck down as both GM F-bodies. my world is a lie.

    it would be cool to seem them at some point but I'm guessing these are long dead now.

    I would totally be into getting the Runabout and Runamuck from them. Hopefully it's still a thing.

    Piling on to say yes, still interested in the Battlechargers. iGear Brawn and Gears were some of my first 3P figures so I'll always have a bit of a soft spot for the company.

    I’m interested in their Battlechargers, But Takara already did a great job with their masterpiece Ironhide, so I don’t see myself needing a replacement.

    Would love to see them mod Runabout into a Windcharger (new head, flip around the torso, slight remold of the crotch).
