    Sting, as in The Police? Because there were three of them. And there are three aerialbots. And you brought it up, which obviously means you must be the real DalianJJ. And if that’s the case, then on behalf of everyone in every Fans Toys combiner thread, I just have one question:
    Is Star Toys secretly Transform element or what???

    It was a much more interesting read than the "thats got to sting for some folks" shit stirring comment you quoted to begin with. But you better be careful bc now, every move you make, every step you take, he'll be watching you.

    Back on topic. Ive got the same attitude towards the missing aerialbots as i do bandit. Ill have em when i have em and ill enjoy what i do have until then.

    Thanks y’all. At the end of the day I just try to make these threads more interesting. I know interesting isn’t for all of the people all of the time but I’m glad some people take that for what it is.

    You're right. Ima put everything up for sale now. I mean whats the sense? If i can't have them all at once its just pointless to pursue this hobby anymore. Im so glad you pointed this out to me. You and you alone opened my eyes that ft is just screwin with us and never intends to release any of their combiners. Disaster averted;)

    What good is this hobby if we can't enjoy and appreciate unfinished combiner teams for 2+ years. I, for one, am grateful to Fans Toys and will continue for however more years to come.

    Thank you DalianJJ, wherever you are!

    I miss that cartoon. Amazon really should've bought the production rights to making more of the animated series. The last show was good but the cartoon was better.

    Man some of you guys really got issues :wtf:  :crazy: 

    It's not my fault you're waiting 5 plus years to complete a combiner that Zeta already knocked out of the park.

    But if taking it out on me makes you feel better, good luck with that plan.

    I can see how Fanstoys has really made a mark with the quality of their product and mostly producing the 1st generation Transformers Hasbro (Takara Tomy) has not made in their Masterpiece line. I can’t speak for all collectors but in 1984 when Transformers was first broadcast on television I was 7 years old. If you do your math that makes me 45 today. My point is the people who first appreciated transformers are getting older. Additionally, of Hasbro (Takara Tomy) 1st generation transformers Hasbro (Takara Tomy) is least likely to produce the combiners in our lifetime.

    Here (with the combiners) is where I believe Fanstoys is really missing out on an opportunity.

    Fanstoys in my opinion are perfectionist and put a lot of love in their product. However, because they are perfectionist I believe that is why their first two combiners are taking so long. Fanstoys doesn’t want to lose the reputation they have for producing an exceptional product. If Fanstoys doesn’t knock it out the park with these two combiners they lose all their future business being the go to for all transformers other than the combiners. My hope is Fanstoys spends whatever time they need now to work out all the issues they have run into with these combiners and their future combiner products are produced more quickly. I seriously doubt collectors will want to invest 7 years in future combiners.
