    It'd be cool. But I'd rather have an MP Skybyte.

    I would like to see WJ do some OS versions, along with dinobots, insecticons and more. I really enjoy their OS Prime, Megs, Ratchet and Ironhide

    The search for MP scale Sharkticons goes on...can’t find the IG or UT offerings, apart from IG leader (but colours are not G1 movie).

    It would be good move. A quality sharkticon nets them some good profit on one mold. A lot of people are going to want more than one. 3 seems to be a good number. Its also an open field pretty much, just like with their junkions.

    I would ask ft, as I want that die cast and nice cold feel to it, but they have so much to release already, not even gonna bother.

    Would have preferred if Transformer Element was tackling this project actually, after FT, I must say they got the nice product with TE01, but they seem to be doing movie bumblebee...

    My third go to would be xtb, but I don’t expect a surprise from them, but you never know.

    Then there is Ocular Max, I guess...

    That it on my list of ones I can think of.

    Its strange to me that all the 3p companies haven't tried to do MP scale movie accurate Sharkticons. It seems to me like a win win. Many people would buy more than one, and its the type of bot you could buy several from different companies to get different flavors for troop building. Like more then one company releasing their version wouldn't necessarily step on the others toes.

    Since X-Transbots is doing Dr. Egg they might be planning a whole set. Including Sharkticons.

    It's not just this, I want all the one-off characters from "that one episode". Primecron, Deceptitran, B.O.T., bring it!

    Yeah they seem the most motivated to do those kinds of things. I think MMC would make some good ones and be a bit more stylish/creepy.

    Me too. I would love like Nightbird, B.O.T, that one episode that Megatron made those crappy scrap drones that transformed (I can't remember what episode it was..anyone remember?). I was thinking of making a whole thread asking for the transport drones and cargo warrior dudes form war dawn cause I want them so much.

    I don't remember the episode title (Maybe "Making Tracks" or some such). I believe it was the episode that first introduced Raoul. Where Megatron had car thieves stealing cars for him to make into drones.

    MP Sharkticons are some of my most wanted MP figures and frankly I find it a bit shocking no one has made these yet. The existing options don't hold up, in my opinion.

    Too bad XTB/KFC dropped the ball and went with Dr. Egg and Junkion army building.

    They will be pure die cast, have light up eyes, have sound chips, will be motorized, double as bluetooth speakers, be controlled through WIFI, double as food processors and cost 500 dollars each.
