    Hmm.. Wonder how many parts will there be?
    My guess: :p 
    40A Head.
    40B Body.
    40C Arm & Legs.

    well going by recent pricing we can make a guess as to what the head alone will cost 150-180? any thoughts?

    ...bruderstator: makes a 42" fortress maximus seem junior-scale by comparison...

    It should be "cheap" cos it should be a relatively simple figure. $100 or cheaper.

    If it is $150 for the head, I don't want to think about the body.

    The enourmous hardon the fanstoys designer must have at imagining the amount of die cast he can put in this thing.

    Could we call this legends scale? I'd love to see it with the UT / DX9 / MFT lines.

    I don’t know. I hope Weijiang will oversize this so it can be in scale.

    FT is too off for me. This is Bruticus and Metroplex in the season 4 intro but it shows how Fanstoys really messed up. Why can’t you guys do anything right?

    P.S. This is a joke. I was trying out non-blue sarcasm.

    I doubt I'll have the room, but this thing will be a sight to behold

    Lol at the guys saying it’s too small or out of scale.

    This thing is pure beauty and fan service!

    I just turned 40 this year and am thinking that at this rate I hope I can live long enough for FansToys to make a complete G1 Masterpiece line. Lol!

    Amazing Job! Congratulations

    I wonder how they plan to release something like this when they have said that their other figures already suffered from a limited time and space in the factory.... unless that small factory/time window was BS...


    (Also Imagining the kind of springs that would need to be in the legs for the ratchets is painful)

    Well, given that this thing is probably going to weight at least 20kg and could easily reach 30, even if a simple transformation scheme playability is going to be a concern, if only because of how strong the ratchets are going to be. I wouldn't be too surprised if at the end the project would be deemed unfeasible and only the head is released.

    Looking at the renders I can't see a joint to lay down the feet for spaceship mode, but I can't believe FT is going to skip that mode.

    I keep seeing people say it’s not in scale. If you base it on cerebros (and headmasters rather than rebirth), then yes, it is in scale.

    It's super simple. This thing has a limited appeal. They understand that. I am guessing no more than 2000 will be produced. Unlike their other figures, which had runs of 6000 plus.
