    Ya definitely in on Apeface, though I hope the figure leans more towards code's quality than the other guys. Really hope we get a snapdragon soon as well, as he's both my favorite headmaster and one of my favorite g1 figures.

    I like them for their transformations, but they just don't have the same level of sturdiness in my opinion.

    IF FP beats Toyworld to punch with an Apeface and SNapdragon, depending on their sizes, they will be definite must buys for me:cool:

    I wonder if these would scale well with Death Stalker. ;) 

    Maybe TGPing is going to chime in. LOL

    This is excellent news, I can just stick with FP on the Headmasters instead of half and half. I was so close on pulling the trigger for toyworld hardbone when it was on sale for $60, it's a good deal no less, but now i can just focus on FP instead.

    Yes, finally a new Apeface!

    He looks nice 'n' chunky in that silhouette, with not a hint of wing in sight, I wonder how they fold away?

    Also, it'll be interesting to see if they've engineered a triple changing head for him.

    They may fold away, much like Smart Robin's wings.

    Hopefully a Snapdragon follows Apeface. Can't split up the band, guys.

    My understanding is that they're more like Bethesda, and don't really show off a lot of stuff until things are almost ready.

    Odd that all if the remaining regular 1987 Headmasters, Snapdragon is the only one left out.

    This is all on the assumption that x5 is Skullcruncher.

    Maybe they're saying the Jr HM's for the next wave... but Snapdragon missing is odd.

    Either way I'm still excited for this line.

    So isn't it Hardhead, Skullcruncher, and Highbrow? I think those are the most likely

    skullcruncher was already shown way back when. looks like he'll be #5. Minerva is missing in action though. She will come though. FP aint that dumb. Just keep it up FP. Headmaster Jrs, Targetmasers… brainmasters… whatever.

    Scullcruncher has a faceplate? The TW version doesn't, which is correct?

    Glad to see these coming. Already have Hardhead, but the other 2 are likely purchases :)  Hopefully they get to the next wave and Nightbeat / Minerva, Snapdragon and the jr's

    This may sound strange, but I kind of like that about FP and MT. They have a design, know what the product should be and just go with it without dealing with feedback. Don't get me wrong, I do like being able to provide feedback, but I think staying true to your original design, knowing it's tolerances, often is the best bet in putting out a quality product rather than changing things midstream only to set the design back further.
