    Of course. I don't think anyone in this thread believes that it is supposed to be anything other than "as cartoon accurate as possible".
    There is nothing about this figure to indicate otherwise, which is great because that's both what FansToys are aiming for and what the target audience wants.
    A couple of simple tweaks and it would be tough to beat.

    It wouldn’t be a good idea to not change that face. Hopefully Fanstoys listen…and read.

    I'm wasn't saying it's not cartoon - I was asking if it was. I never liked the cartoon and didn't know which face was meant to be the cartoon one. (I would personally prefer the toys to have more variety, rather than so many having featureless stilts as legs and similar faces. But I understand that the majority want their toys this way.)

    I’ve got Fanstoys dead-centre in my view finder!

    Make my face grey!

    Or else!

    That puts a whole new meaning too "toon accurate."

    He missed it. Actually he was aiming at Mirage and wanted to shoot him but he was distracted by Insecticons. Then Mirage went invisible. Then he was threatened by Starscream but luckily escaped.

    Nobody at FT reads this anymore but Dpuff does pass the Cliffs Notes version of our conversations up to his corporate sponsors. Am I rite Mac?

    And I want it to be smoke grey because that's more appropriate to an actual vehicle. Guess we can settle on a compromise of having it exactly as it is and neither of us will be entirely happy.

    Don’t put words in DPuff’s mouth. Or anything else for that matter. I know.

    I'm hoping they give him that blushing face from that manga. You know, the one where Starscream pinches his bum and he gets adorably flustered.

    You're not wrong. I keep them informed of the big topics being discussed. For example, a couple weeks ago, I let them know that everyone is extremely happy with everything on parkour and there is no need for change. They informed me that was good bc they wont change it anyway. Last weeks email i included all of the positive comments that have been posted about the gold on blaster and they are delighted that everyone loves it. And of course with each and every communication i remind them that there is absolutely no rush on bandit.

    Excellent work.
    Could you also tell the Fanstoys cult leaders that waiting for their release of Berserk is positively orgasmic and that they should never, ever release it because that would spoil the exquisite agony of the whole experience?
