    while dated, i FUCKING LOVE those two molds. The blockiness reminds me so much of the chonky g1 bots, but they are articulated and expressive and full of life

    i want that designer to do every combiner

    How we doin, folks?
    Heading to Botcon next month in Nashville. Hope to see some FP love there (and maybe snag a couple of their figures I've been pining for.)

    With that SND Optimus getting great reception, that Last of the Seekers startup, the Action Toys Machine Robo line being on indefinite hiatus, and Legacy bringing a return to more varied stylized takes on characters, now or not long from now might just be a perfect window for a company like Fansproject to make a move. Kuma had mentioned that the FP Roller was still on the table in some capacity.
    What do you think, lads? Could we possibly see some kind of resurgence from FP?

    I don't think it's fair for me to answer this but I just wanted to say I really appreciate your contributions to the thread recently.

    Hopefully I can find the last 2 members of this incredible set.

    Of all the Fansproject releases, this is one of my all time favorites.

    The vintage style poseabillity isn't my thing but I'd be lying if I said these guys weren't cool as hell. Shame it never really caught on.

    Heh, someone put up FP Monstructor on eBay for $666.

    Cute, but more than I'm willing to pay

    They're trying to summon the devil so they can sell their soul for a reissue of the set.

    Dumb question from someone who will possibly be a first-time 3P MISB buyer this year:

    Do unlicensed 3P companies, or rather Fansproject in particular, use plastic ties or whatnot to hold down figures to the plastic tray when the packaging is new and unopened? Compared to, let's say, how Hasbro packages current Legacy Leader, Commander, and Titan Class figures in windowless packaging.
