    Aw come on! Just as I'm about finishing all of my Animated figures! :( 

    I'm guessing all of this Animated third party products is due to the popularity it gained from BotCon.

    I think a lot of it has to do with avoiding copyright infringement and being a small enough operation that HasTak doesn't recognize them as a threat to their business.

    I would love it if they were only selling boxes, so people think they bought new Animated toys after a while.

    As much as I love the idea, I'm not seeing anything to get excited about here.

    Depending on how they look, I'll buy the Cyclonus and Sari. Brawn and the others... meh, but if they turn out to be amazing I'd go for it.

    A Sari figure would be freaking awesome. Even more amazing if it can psudo transform like those old power range flip head things.

    That said no getting excited until we see some real deal prototypes and this isn't someone's (sexy) pipe dream.

    While I think this conversation is predicated on false hopes and do not expect to see any of the "products" displayed on the website (looks like an art / design project to me,Ithink3rd party companies should take note at the interest and love in the Animated franchise, a very popular series which would otherwise be truncated before giving the fandom all that they would buy.

    Probably wouldn't work; Sari's head is too big and her body is too small. If the figure does had some head-swapping gimmick, it would probably be done with interchangeable heads.

    Whats with the TF collectors club logo on the boxes? Will these be sold through them ? I hope not because if they can jack a toy price up just for a new head i would hate to see the price they charge for a full figure lol

    This all sounds too good to be true and after reading the site it all sounds like a fanboys animated pipe dream.

    For now I will go forward and call fake but if it turns out to be real then I will buy everything on there. Except the garbage bot, it looks nothing like it doea on the show.

    sweet! I don't normally do third party, but if they nail the look and feel of animated I don't know if I'll be able to resist.

    Hope they make a red alert!

    I have a feeling this is gonna be squashed if it hasn't already been. they have hasbro's
    Transformers Club logos on the boxes. they are using official TFA logos as well as names and Autobot and Decepticon Logos. which is no way in hell legal.

    I'm calling Fake and Bogus

    This has to be some kind of fanboyish or fangirlish art, not an actual 3rd party product.

    All the art used on those boxes was done by various folks from Deviantart. I recognize the Sari stuff for sure.
