    Exactly what I need! I was just looking at the prices on the Impossible Toys releases & I can't afford them. I'm all over this! I had the IT ones but sold them like an idiot. And as usual I want them back but screwed myself.


    I wish they wouldn't do that. I don't need/want lights or sounds, that's a feature I will never use & will just drive the price up.

    What size are they supposed to be anyway? In one pic they're smaller than Optimus & Sky Lynx is even smaller. In the next they're bigger than Ultra Magnus. If you go by the 2nd pic, CHUG size is bigger than leader class. Is there a way to tell how big they actually are?

    True.
    I imagine them about deluxe size myself.
    I don't want them to be too expensive either, since I want to armybuild them.

    I would like these to be huge like MP Ultra Magnus huge. They would seem so puny and insignificant. When they are bigger they could have more molded detail as well.

    I
    would be a-okay with huge quintessons if they still had low costs. Without the engineering for transformation I hope it would cut the costs down. I want articulated tentacles too.

    I doubt there was a single Quintesson size ever, but I still remember Galvatron grabbing one from the tentacles and splattering him around.

    Anyways I dont believe >UltraMagnus size is good. I believe a good size would be around the waist of mp10, personally.
    Not large enough to be considered powerhouses, not small enough to be considered puny.

    I think for size, something between MP Bumblebee and MP Prowl..somewhere between 4-6 inches tall.

    Excited. Just don't make them too small, unlike a couple of others have stated.
    They're bigger than Sharkticons, Allicons and similar size/slightly taller than their bailiff minions.
    And I need Sharkticons and Alicons to look right with Kup and Hot Rod!
    A deluxe sized Judge leads to a Sharkticon smaller than a minibot, approaching Legends scale.

    I want Judges to be around MP Ironhide height.
    Bailiff's, Executioners and Prosecutors maybe Hoodlum height.
    Sharkticons and Alicons probably carbot size. The Sharkticons may also lose a bit of height I think in alt mode.

    I definitely like the idea of great articulation, nice paint finish and some extra gimmicks like lights and sounds. Without transformation, these kind of need something extra to earn that "Masterpiece" moniker. I hope they do the same with their AutoBot Spike, and any other non-transforming figures they do.

    Even more, I'm really hoping these types of characters prove effective so that XTB or someone else either picks up those defunct Ex-FactoryCenturion droid designs or creates their own... those things were amazing!

    While it isn't impossible we get news sooner, TFCon is just over a week from now. Almost any news in the short term is likely to be then. Of course there is no guarantee on any specific project being updated then.

    SDCC doesn't have anything to do with non-licensed 3rd Party companies. In any case, no updates as of yet. Maybe by October?

    Also, for some reason XTB prefers to do more Asian based shows than TFCon for reveals or real effort. I would expect upcoming shows in China to be far more telling than even the next TFCon at the end of October. They are pumping out a ton a repaints now with no news on their next figures.
