    "I hope these guys are compatible with PCC combiner limbs, that'd be such a useful feature," said no one ever.

    With Maketoys apparently sharing production with Fansproject, and Fansproject soliciting more products than they can release on time, i'd be very skeptical.

    The TFCon 3P panel news said there were full protos shown at the show! Hopefully pics will show up here soon!

    Just the bots, no altmodes or combined mode.
    Interesting they would reveal the botmodes first considering that was by far the weakest part of their constructicons overall.
    But this will be the highlight of my day, with the bovis reveal.

    Check out peaugh's twitter. Pix of strafe and lightspeed in bot mode (Black proto stage) and full combined mode (grey proto stage)

    Looks AMAZING

    Maketoys wins TFCon

    Does not utilize "add-in generators" for arms, looks like the limbs are fully composed from the limb members

    Tired of being picked on at school for being the lame nerdy kid, Computron started going to the gym and BULKED THE FUCK UP.

    after feral rex this is my next can't wait 'til it's in my hands project!!! holy shit, i'm loving it!! i love that lightspeed and strafe were the only two technobots i owned and they're the first bot reveals! too cool! still using legs as elbow joints, so that'll receive some criticism but i personally don't mind too much. great job mt!!

    It's official, MakeToys is my favorite 3P in terms of aesthetics. I have no plans getting Computron, but he looks like an absolute beast. Please MakeToys, make a Bruticus. I don't care about your ties with FansProject; Bruticus is in need of a major update to compare to Giant and Intimidator.

    Now that looks like a combiner that is ready to take on Abominus. Maketoys has officially won the title of best combiners IMO

    That looks amazing - Computron was one of my favourite combiners as a kid.

    Dayum. I am only disappointed that I started to invest in FPs Menasor instead of waiting for MT to do them. Scattershot is a fucking beast and they're all almost an exactly like thier cartoon selves.
    TFC is getting owned in this game.

    This isn't too bad but not nearly enough to impress a TFC fan. They look nothing like the actual Technobots and besides the fact that they're going to be puny in size, of course!

    Strafe is pretty nice

    Scattershot was the only G1 Technobot I had. I can't wait to see what his MT alt mode looks like. He's huge!
