    Decided to build this guy, hopefully the finished product is worth the price! Either way he has to be a nicer piece then my POTP Abominus.

    I’ve got Astaroth in the cart, but it’ll be a good minute before I pull that trigger, if I do.

    Can someone ask them please what happened to Blot? Maybe at Weibo?

    There is no Color Change.
    No set Release Date.
    To say it with Joker Words
    "What happened to TFC...did their Balls drop off?"
    I mean what are waiting for? Blot is finished, so why not just ship him out?

    Low Demand for this Project is
    NO EXCUSE to just put it on Stop.

    I am Okay with the Delay of Cutthroat and HungGarr faaaaar into 2021. Since there are not even Prototypes yet.

    But they could at least Release Blot
    and work on Rippersnapper Color Prototype.

    But now: complete Silence on this Project.
    I do not live forever, damn it.

    And with a global pandemic, I'm sure they have other priorities than catering to your impatience. No need to be rude about it.

    Its a toy. Calm down, you'll live without it.

    Haha coming soon.
    At least I can assume that we will see Blot
    within this Year.

    I think Rippersnapper will be released
    2021.

    I understand that we will see the last 2 remaining Bots Bird and Dragon in LATE 2021, since there are not even Prototypes around.
    But still; I wish they would speed up for Blot and Rippersnapper a little bit.

    I'd rather have them ensure good QC with all the crap that's been coming out of some factories lately. Lots of QC issues where none were before. If taking their time can mitigate some of that, that's fine by me. I'm not going anywhere and would rather wait for something great than have crappy or mediocre now.

    I’m hoping TFC Hun-Gurr is closer to what UT did than the PotP one. I really dig the look of Siegfried.

    They better release things fast, because if FT were to release shots of their own Abominus/Computron, I'll probably abandon this set pronto.

    If you're into Fanstoys' aesthetics, I highly doubt you're TFC's target demographic, anyway.

    I am into a lot of lines, but I have long run out of space and I am trying to cut down on what I buy.

    That's very understandable. I'm the same with space and being choosy, so I totally get that (trying to convince my wife we need a bigger house, lol).

    However, I'm the opposite on these; unless FT totally changed their M.O. and abandoned hyper-toon for super-stylized, i can't see them pulling me away from TFC. They make nice products, but there's just a slew of reasons why they aren't my cup of tea.

    But Fanstoys is G1 ONLY.
    Not Modernized. In Terms of
    STYLE there is no Competition.
    If I take a look at their G1 Menasor Combiner, as a non G1 Fan, I could puke.
    Looks so Ugly. Their Bots Head Sculpt look like an Old Man.

    They do not need to hurry.
    Their Abominus and Computron will
    be Heavy G1: Everything G1 Fans could Dream of.

    TFC and Cang will go their non G1 Way.
    All for Modernized Organic Look.

    There is enough 3P for Both Teams
    For G1ers and for Modernized.
    You just need to Select your "Team"

    Cang Toys and TFC for Modernized
    Toyworld and Fanstoys for G1

    Unboxed mine, really liking the figure and looks nice next to the Cangtoys Predacons.

    I think (going by the original blurry renders on page 1), TFC are doing their own thing. It doesn't even look like the dragon heads will make the 'bot legs, so a vast departure from tradition.

    I'm just getting this for the combiner, though, so if their take on a particular character isn't that great, not really a problem as long as Abominus works.

    Awesome bots! That double-blaster with sniper extendo looks really cool on Ferocious, I might copy that look, makes me wish I bought several copies like some others here:)
