    Scourge would be welcomed to stand next to my Mania King...never was a "scale nut" by my deluxe generations Scourge always seems a bit too tiny....that and my classics Cyclonus, but that's a story for another thread.
    I would say the autobots would be welcomed but my Fansproject Code and Smart Robin still hold serve in my collection. The Highbrow would be a tad too big for me standing next to my Code and Smart Robin, especially if they are voyager in size, like the TR Megatron

    Will they be TR(hasbro) colors or Legends(Takara) colors?

    I won't buy them because I don't collect that scale.
    But I'm happy to see that the voices of those who have been asking for high quality voyager size Transformers from 3P/KO are finally being answered.
    My suggestion to all who have wanted this, spend your money on them or it will be a short lived phenomenon.

    If I was 10 yrs younger and not invested in mp scale already I'd be all over this.

    Maketoys has done a few Headmasters and Toyworld? I'm not certain but there have been a few so far.

    maketoys are supposed to be mp scale but i think they are too big.

    These are awesome and I will buy every single one.

    The only bad thing is this might mean they are abandoning the OS CW figures and I still need an OS CW Menasor.

    Scale is such a tough thing for companies to get right and appease the majority with eh. Like the toyworld coneheads- to me they seem way too tall, yet for others, it's great.
    Then there's the new Optimus they did. He's quite tall too. Pergaps they're trying to get a new scale to gain a foothold so they can be the exclusive market for it?
    I'm thankful for social media so I can still enjoy all these different collections without neccisarily having to buy them.

    When they did the RID stuff they only did the first wave of them and that was it. Hopefully, they will do them all this time.

    They showed those at the China Toy Fair LAST YEAR. I've had them want-listed at Sir Toys for like 9 months.

    Do you have any pics, so are you telling me they are gonna do a OS Thunderhoof. I wanted that guy, I actually was waiting to be the WJ OS versions of all the characters.

    I already have a Takara TR Blurr but I would happily double dip for that guy in MP scale.

    Are the headmasters depicted on the unholy scale chart?

    They're very scaled correctly going by toy size. Headmasters were larger than carbots in both modes.

    Personally, I'm now for some of the animal Headmasters here. Kinda like them smaller than the vehicle ones.

    I think the Headmasters were only really large in the Japanese Headmasters series. In the US cartoon and comics they were pretty much normal-sized.

    Headmasters are also sort of exceptional among TFs, since their scale is implied to be consistent across the line because the Nebulans are all the same size, and sit in the cockpits of the vehicle modes too.

    Which would make a jet, a helicopter, a tank, and a car all pretty much equal in size, oddly enough. Ironically, this also suggests that Headmasters should actually be -smaller- than regular TFs, since in alt-mode, an F-15 like a Seeker would be way larger than Brainstorm, and a tank like Brawl or Warpath would be much larger than Hardhead (using the Nebulan pilot as a scale reference).
