Thank you for bringing Transform Element's mirage to my attention. One of my favorite characters, and while I like Sphinx and Invisible, neither one quite hits my mark. This one looks like exactly what I've been wanting.
Never commented on your stuff before, but I really appreciate your discussions on 3rd party MP news and opinions, I've basically gotten to a point where that's pretty much all I buy, so thanks!
OT, I was always surprised that Astrotrain always seemed more popular & in-demand than Blitzwing. All three of Blitzwing's modes look better to me than any of AstroTrain's
I'm in the same boat with Maketoys's Starscream needing Skywarp and Thundercracker along with waiting on Dirge, Thrust and Ramjet. I'm not holding my breath on any of them at this point. Also wouldn't put it past Takara not releasing any new G1 molds this year with Soundwave and other reissues coming.
Looks like we're getting Eject and Rewind first from MMC, given a recolor use of their upcoming mold has been hinted at for a convention special later this year. Unfortunately they have been very slow releasing the new cassettes. Would like to get all four this year.
Great video! I discovered your channel through your Spinister obscure figure review. Loved it so I went and watched some of your other videos. Great channel good sir, one of my new favorites! Keep it up!
As far as FT goes the next three months are the Roadking reissue, Warpath, brawn. after that I'm guessing their Wildrider and then iceman or maybe the Dunerider. I really don't see them finishing either combiner this year, but it would be nice. I also don't expect any part of Fort Max coming out.
Great list. I love all the Fanstoys stuff. I'm not too interested in the Soundwave since I am more than happy with the Takara Masterpiece one but I would love it if Fanstoys re-released their Dinobot or Dibots. I missed a couple the first time around and I really think Fanstoys nailed the G1 look of the Dinibots plus they scale well with the Hasbro/Takara Devastator.
Thank you so much Tydirium Hanger for bringing me up to date and a complete line up of what to expect I always look forward to what news you have for Tranformers and you do the best job and it's very much appreciated man it's going to be a great year !!! Happy New Year !!! 🖖🤖
You know you can say that almost once a month and then bang another release. I do wish there would be more definitive dates like Takara gives even though they push back the dates most of the time. Thanks
Bro everything you showed is exactly what I have been excited for. I have the MMC figures and others pre ordered and cant wait to see a Mirage from TE I love my Prime.
I would like to see Fanstoys tackle a version of G1 Bumblebee I think a lot of people would like a version in their collection they don't have to stand straight forward and dare not look at the side profile of the figure it would be a guarantee win all around !!!
@Terminator sorry I disagree some 3rd parties are thrash your right but take someone like Fanstoys and they are on a different level then official by miles and giving them competition making official try to step up their game just a fact of how it is and I hope they do climb to that standard of Transformer 🤷♂️🤖 Their getting there like MP 44 is a contender but look at the price and their new Bumblebee is trash and the plastic isn't as good as it once was
I’m in on the MMC Combaticons I think the engineering to be all in is fantastic. Although I’d love to see all the figures from FT released in 2020 like you shown I doubt they’ll all get released, looking back at 2019 they released/re-released figures every two months so that six or maybe seven figures for 2020, but you never know.
What do you think about the Fans Toys Menasaur? I did a lot of research and I think the size isnt that off from the cartoon in scale. The Stunticons looked like big bots in the cartoon.
I love the larger scale of FT and DX9. I think that The Fanstoys bots will look too good to put in combined mode because the individual bots look that great! Thanks
Hate burst ur bubble but were only going to see iceman, magnum, and maybe Smokey in 2020. They are filling their 2020 schedule with mini bots and at least 3 reissues/repaints. Can’t complain when ft is averaging 10 figures a year.
Definitely super agree! Last year was an amazing year for Transformers forsure! Can't wait for the Fanstoys Brawn, Warpath and seas spray. Definitely will pickup the dx9 and fanstoys Stunticons. Not sure about the Xtransbots and Mmc ocular maybeif they release box set, maybe I'll just pickup there Gravestone. This year Definitely exiting year for transformers as well. Great video!
Great video my Friend , I'm hoping that they get these figures out i totally agree bad cube wardog is horrible transformation. I wish they would a punch and a counter punch .
I want Apeface from Maketoys (Silverback). They showed a blueprint like 3 years ago. I'm also concerned about them because it seems there have been issues with their last releases. I know their kickstarter campaign didn't work well, but I think that's the only way they can sell the toys if they are having financial issues. I agree with your list. I don't want all of them but I see how you would like those in your masterpiece collection. I would only need the two Fanstoys Tripple Changers, Gravestone and JX Tigerhawk. Anything else will be a plus for me. :)
The coneheads should sell well and have many similar parts so they could get back on their feet with these 3 successful releases. If so then we need all those headmasters and yes an apeface will be nice! Thanks
I commented on one of your other videos that I sold my whole collection back in October and you replied asking why, I didn’t reply back but I’m doing it now the reason I sold my collection was I wanted to start over more focus on fans toys and official masterpieces and Wei jiang for bayfomers and I want to do dx9 war in pocket sized to make one big display scale accurate I bought a new house and I have huge man cave to accommodate love your work and the news you bring us if want to see my old collection it’s Israel Moreno transformers time to get ill
It's all about X-transbots Motormaster and trailer! I do already have DX9 Chigurh, but I'm really eying that Thomas! I really wonder why DX9 went with such a different aesthetic. I'm not aware of them doing that any other time. Regarding Thomas though, I've never bought a Fans Toys figure before, and I'm not that excited about paying their prices.
Yes Fanstoys is expensive but in the end they are worth the price with the design, build, paint and aesthetic. Preorder from ShowZ and get the best price. Thanks
The Star Saber in this video looks cool but I'll watch a review before I bite as I got the MP Star Saber and the third party Victory Leo, thou its kind of pain that Takara haven't produced a offical MP Victory Leo at this point then I'm not really a collector of MP figures, I prefer the Generations line more and the Siege line has been fanstastic with awesome figures thou the only downside has been getting a hold of the smaller figures, they are a pain to find, at least I got Soundwave's minions, most of the third party options have been MP scale and they are just more a distraction, to me at least.
looking forward to FT Soundwave. should be bigger, brighter blue metallic paint & better head sculpt. & much better tapes. magnetic attachment for Lazerbeak & Ratbat. hope it’s realized, cuz i may sell my TRU set.
I'm most excited about seeing Fans Toys final version of Soundwave and his cassettes. That said I refuse to pre-order it when I have no clue what the price will be for this. Soundwave is my favorite bad guy in the entire show but I am not going to be buying this if they charge something like $300 for it. Beyond that I'm really hoping MMC is secretly working on a comic version of Ironfist. I got their Guzzle and it looks spot on match of the comics and I could not be more happy. I also really like MMC's Bruticus and I can't wait to see all of the pieces combined on a Emgo Video. I'm also excited about the IronFactory release of Powerglide. I'm a big fan of their more modern re-interpretations of G1 figures. If they made these in the MP scale I would definitely own a couple. I prefer their takes on these classic characters to the original cartoon. Beyond that I would really like to see X-Transbots take a stab at Wheeljack and Arcee and Grimlock even if that is unlikely.
Good point on preordering when there is no price. I have faith that I will get the best price from ShowZ but No I am not in on $300 for Soundwave either. Great ideas for XTB and they need to do their KUP. Thanks
Ive been waiting for the Fans Toys Blitzwing figure for damn near 3 years already...they need to get their shit together and stop announcing shit prematurely
Think the TE Mirage is called Phantom. I’m really not sure if will ever see the XTB springer 😂 Plus there is no way Fanstoys will bring out all those figures. There’s like 11 due to come out... plus no doubt they’ll reissue 1 or 2 things!! I reckon that there’s a chance we don’t complete the combiners this year!!
Iron Factory called theirs Phantom but still fine with that since different scales. It was confirmed on a live stream with Paik4Life that XTB Springer is on the way but no date given. If Fanstoys get their own factory they will put out even more figures than that but that is serious $$$$. Thanks
I am looking forward to generation toys finishing their hot spot. And I want that ft ASTRO train. I am just gonna buy it out right... Face the pre orders will be sold out in a hour
The Fans toys thomas looks darn good. Devil Star was horrible, dx9 Chigurh doesnt have the right g1 aesthetic. Fancy cell transportation captain is great for chug
I am very unimpressed with the price of X-transbots Motormaster. I believe I have pre-paid the same as I did for the FT version, which feels a bit like I've been taken advantage of after their original low price for their limb bots. I am looking forward to all the FT's releases. I am almost at the point of just waiting till they release figures and stop buying other companies.
I have been hearing people find FT Motormaster for $120 but I paid $180 for Ft and $130 for XTB. Yes Fanstoys kills it with almost every release. I hope the other do not give up because we need the competition. Thanks
@@tydiriumhanger1320 , I completely agree about needing the competition. I am also still very happy with my X-transbots Stunticons overall. More happy then I am with my Zeta Aerialbots. My legbots both don't hold together which has caused my Superion to take a dive off the table and break bits off. The X-transbots look pretty fantastic in their bot and alt mode. I'm sure the combine mode will also please. I am liking the FT ones better, but that hasn't at all taken away from my enjoyment of the X-transbots. My biggest problem is I just don't know if I can continue buying more then one copy of a figure. I have to stop buying filler figures. Also with Takara's rising prices, I may be out of official MP collecting. I am very happy with my MP-44, and looking forward to my Hound coming in (but I got them both at more reasonable prices then retail), but I received my MP Bumblebee V2 and Spoiler at about the same time, and only paid $18 Canadian more for Spoiler. The Bumblebee looks good from certain angles, but feels jangly, and does not tab together well in alt mode - even out of the box. This all makes me glad though, that my G1 collection is coming to a close. Thank-you for all the great videos. Look forward to more. Sorry for the super long rant.
That’s a lot of FansToys wishful thinking. 12-13 figures this year, that would be nice but I don’t think they will. I think they will finish the combiners, Warpath and Brawn all of which I’m looking forward to. That Soundwave looks dope! That would be a bonus if that comes out this year.
I don't care that much about the fanstoys Soundwave except for their Ravage. I have MP Ravage and it's junk. I hope they release the Ravage cassette separately, as I feel Takara's other cassettes are pretty good.
My main issue with Takara's takes was the size. It looks like FT will be about the same size but different engineering. Still look forward to those. Thanks
I hope not but we will see how many they can crank out. I think they learned from the issues they had with Rouge and Hydra to take time and maintain quality.
I’m 40. I grew up with g1. It was the best show on tv when I was 5,6,7 years old. Now it just looks like crap. The idw and movie bots just look cooler. I still collect g1 masterpiece because they are good quality. But looks wise there isn’t a g1 that looks better then a movie bot or idw bot. They just look old. This is all my opinion.
Fanstoys fan boys are so annoying. I don’t understand why people gush over fanstoys so much. They really haven’t given anything that great lately. In the last two years they haven’t knocked anything out of the park really.
I see what you are saying. I just reviewed GOOSE and he looks great and transforms well and near perfect. His backpack is bad so not a complete home run. Thanks
Yes it is a mixed bag of news when a new figure comes out that looks better than what I have on my shelf. I have cleared out some space for these guys by selling off some old so the sting will not be as bad. Thanks
Well looks like I will be picking up more overtime. Astrotrain is a must and most of the other ones I will entertain some of it but my funds are in on all the menasors and combiners in general. Will skip the mmc. Don’t care for his combined form. The zeta second edition is all I need for bruticus. They need to work on other combiners. Defensor computron and abominus would be nice. Def in on the fort max. That will be sick. Xtransbot covered most of the other ones for me so u less something sticks out totally I will pass on the ones I already have which is all from xtransbot. The dx9 blitzwing is excellent but the scale is wrong so might go in on fanstoys. All this showing will simply make Takara play catch up and unfortunately most of them will be over priced because people don’t need the actual company to release it. $159 for hound???? No thanks. Til that drops down close to $100 I won’t even entertain the idea. The cone heads I am quite pleased with takaras so will pass on those as well
I think that they're going outta the tf game. Hopefully they'll sell the rights/files of their existing prototype figs to another 3rdparty like KFC xtransbots or fanstoys to complete the Headmasters crews. We will all buy these in mp scale, companies shouldn't worry about those G1 figures. Personally I want these 3ps to chill out on making existing combiners, maybe make those we don't have yet idiots 👹, FTOYS has surpassed Takara for the moment, stop trying to beat them other 3rdparty's, once the GenToy Hotspot is ready to ship, everything will change finally getting a new complete Not'Defensor, ppl have been ragging about this set for awhile, I bet it'll sellout just like their Stunticons did at all u.s. Retailers did ppl complain-absolutely still kept buying the figures didn't they. I personally don't really believe all this psychotic hysteria about absolute perfectly boring g1 cartoon aesthetics to 11billion degrees... I think that they're some-25% like that, and more than 60-75% mp collectors are wanting sophisticated looking pieces that capture the essence of the G186 movie then the show since most regular characters weren't even in the movie. Who truly loves loves loves the mp Ironhide, Inferno, Star Saber, how many people think that the autobot characters as a whole are too freaking small, I remember Sideswipe bluestreak looking at Screamer eye2eye, not up at him as if they were half his size nope. It seems 2me Takara Hasbro has forgotten about mass shifting unless its a Decepticon. How bout Tracks same size as Blaster right, not in the line again a midget in comparison. This is 1 reason for loving FTOYS and XTB they try2 get these bots Right, or make up4 past mistakes by the official companies. Ok said too much again, apologies Mike. Haven't been well but your videos have helped me while convalescing, blessings my XTB Gravestone, FANSHOBBY black godbomber, and yellow diaclone jinbao devastator,all coming Also received sharpshooter-xmas gift,this latest Arialbot Skydive his name maybe
Thank you for bringing Transform Element's mirage to my attention. One of my favorite characters, and while I like Sphinx and Invisible, neither one quite hits my mark. This one looks like exactly what I've been wanting.
It will be one of the better figures for the year. Thanks
They should make a masterpiece version of Bulkhead
Need a new blaster if we getting a soundwave
Fanstoys hinted at one but I bet Takara does one and FT sidelines their design. It is like poetry that keeps repeating itself! Thanks
Never commented on your stuff before, but I really appreciate your discussions on 3rd party MP news and opinions, I've basically gotten to a point where that's pretty much all I buy, so thanks!
Glad you enjoy the content! Thanks for the sub!
I think this is the year Jazz, Mirage, and Cliffjumper would be announced. Also would be great to see how they handle the Constructicons.
OT, I was always surprised that Astrotrain always seemed more popular & in-demand than Blitzwing. All three of Blitzwing's modes look better to me than any of AstroTrain's
Fanstoys will get Astrotrain out first to fill that gap and I see Blitzwing not too far behind. Thanks
I love that design for star saber. IIRC its bigger then the OG MP fig as well
He will be a great figure and the pic appears to have a great paint job! Thanks
I'm in the same boat with Maketoys's Starscream needing Skywarp and Thundercracker along with waiting on Dirge, Thrust and Ramjet. I'm not holding my breath on any of them at this point. Also wouldn't put it past Takara not releasing any new G1 molds this year with Soundwave and other reissues coming.
Looks like we're getting Eject and Rewind first from MMC, given a recolor use of their upcoming mold has been hinted at for a convention special later this year. Unfortunately they have been very slow releasing the new cassettes. Would like to get all four this year.
That would make sense with more bang for their molds. Thanks
Wait MMC will do a repaint? LOL
Great video brother, it's like we're on the same mental wave link of anticipation!
Yes Great Minds think alike! LOL Thanks
Great video! I discovered your channel through your Spinister obscure figure review. Loved it so I went and watched some of your other videos. Great channel good sir, one of my new favorites! Keep it up!
Glad you enjoyed! Thanks for the compliment!
As far as FT goes the next three months are the Roadking reissue, Warpath, brawn. after that I'm guessing their Wildrider and then iceman or maybe the Dunerider. I really don't see them finishing either combiner this year, but it would be nice. I also don't expect any part of Fort Max coming out.
Yes I have High hopes and if all these do not get released I will just get to save that much more $$$ for the year. Thanks
Great list. I love all the Fanstoys stuff. I'm not too interested in the Soundwave since I am more than happy with the Takara Masterpiece one but I would love it if Fanstoys re-released their Dinobot or Dibots.

I heard Swoop is next to get the reissue from Fanstoys. Seems like they do like to reissue Dinos but very slowly. Thanks
@@tydiriumhanger1320 Nice! Thanks.

Glad you enjoyed! It is also fun to prioritize these releases for myself to prepare for what is to come. Thanks and Happy New Year To you!
Transform Element's Mirage will be my first mp Mirage
It may be the best one to date! Thanks
Same here. I thought about looking for one on the secondary, but I think I will wait on the preorder and not have to pay the ridiculous “late” tax.
This channel contributes alot to transformers companies. It deserves many sponsors.
These FansToys figures are coming out in like... two weeks. *tongue in cheek*
You know you can say that almost once a month and then bang another release. I do wish there would be more definitive dates like Takara gives even though they push back the dates most of the time. Thanks
Bro everything you showed is exactly what I have been excited for. I have the MMC figures and others pre ordered and cant wait to see a Mirage from TE I love my Prime.
Hope we see most of this this year! Glad you enjoyed. Thanks
I got my xtransbots Springer preorder from show z. Thanks for the advice
I would like to see Fanstoys tackle a version of G1 Bumblebee I think a lot of people would like a version in their collection they don't have to stand straight forward and dare not look at the side profile of the figure it would be a guarantee win all around !!!
After seeing Beachcomber I bet they could do a great Bee! Thanks
I was just thinking the same thing but I also believe X-Transbots would do a great job with Bumblebee.
Forget Bee, how about they do Cliffjumper first
They would nail Bee. FT needs to do Ironhide and Ratchet.
@Terminator sorry I disagree some 3rd parties are thrash your right but take someone like Fanstoys and they are on a different level then official by miles and giving them competition making official try to step up their game just a fact of how it is and I hope they do climb to that standard of Transformer 🤷♂️🤖 Their getting there like MP 44 is a contender but look at the price and their new Bumblebee is trash and the plastic isn't as good as it once was
Definitely interested in that IronTrans Star Saber... if only because there's at least a chance a matching Deathsaurus will also be made.
Yes they hinted at Victory Leo and Deathsaurus would make sense. Thanks
Make toys makes the best headmasters. I am dying for those.
They really need to get on to those headmasters pronto! Thanks
Yeah, I'm really looking forward to seeing what comes out in 2020. I have a few I'm hoping for.
It will be a big year for G1 collectors! Thanks
I’m in on the MMC Combaticons I think the engineering to be all in is fantastic. Although I’d love to see all the figures from FT released in 2020 like you shown I doubt they’ll all get released, looking back at 2019 they released/re-released figures every two months so that six or maybe seven figures for 2020, but you never know.
It will be fun for me to go back to this vid in DEC and see what actually got released. If FT gets their own Factory production will ramp up. Thanks
I agree that Fanstoys Acoustic wave looks better than the Takara. Yeah, Thomas looks absolutely phenomenal! Can't wait for these figures. :0)
Thomas appears to be very far along in development so hopefully soon! Thanks
Any word on the new predaking?
What do you think about the Fans Toys Menasaur? I did a lot of research and I think the size isnt that off from the cartoon in scale. The Stunticons looked like big bots in the cartoon.

Lots of fun releases on the way! Thanks
I’m looking forward to Fantoys blitz wing and astrotrain plus there fort max. Hopefully completing the decepticon combiners
Great ones to look forward to! Thanks
Welp! I guess I need the MMC tapes to complete my movie shelf. And here I am thinking I was done.
Sorry to do that to you and your welcome at the same time! LOL Thanks
what no Scorponok ?
Yes I am excited for him but this was the MP list. I am very excited for Toyfair in February to see how that new titan shapes up!
Waiting for Astrotrain and Blitzwing soooo much!
Combiners do make good business sense though. You almost have to buy the whole set.
Yes it does feel that way. I do not see myself combining Fanstoys because the individual bots look so good as a team. Thanks
@@tydiriumhanger1320 either way, combining or keeping them as a team, we buy them all.

Cang Toys predaking. That should be good.
Yes that set will be great! Not sure if they will all make it out by the end of the year but I hope so! Thanks
Omega Supreme, Thrust,Dirge,and Ram Jet,Supherion and Bruticus
All great figures to get this year! Thanks
Any hope for Fansproject return?
It's all about X-transbots Motormaster and trailer! I do already have DX9 Chigurh, but I'm really eying that Thomas! I really wonder why DX9 went with such a different aesthetic.

That FT Blitzwing looks pretty damn good.
He looks great and I am glad they redesigned him to make him more stable. Thanks
The photos showed us how great the models are to look at, the only thing that worries me is the durability of the paint and plastic
Yes that sure is true that even the best looking figure could have issues! Thanks
Fans Toys Astrotrain & Soundwave all day long.
Yeah I need the astrotrain and blitzwing. FTs Soundwave gonna make it tough for to keep my takara...
@@josephmonroy3865 100%
Sure hope to see them both this year!

I think they called Astrotrain Thomas because of.

I'm sorry but I think Dx9s version of Astro train looks better in both alt modes. Fanstoys shuttle mode looks a bit chunky at the cockpit section
DX9 does many things great. Most collectors display in Bot mode so that is a priority. Yes those alt modes do look great. Thanks
Think the TE Mirage is called Phantom.
I’m really not sure if will ever see the XTB springer 😂

My legbots both don't hold together which has caused my Superion to take a dive off the table and break bits off. The X-transbots look pretty fantastic in their bot and alt mode. I'm sure the combine mode will also please. I am liking the FT ones better, but that hasn't at all taken away from my enjoyment of the X-transbots. My biggest problem is I just don't know if I can continue buying more then one copy of a figure. I have to stop buying filler figures. Also with Takara's rising prices, I may be out of official MP collecting. I am very happy with my MP-44, and looking forward to my Hound coming in (but I got them both at more reasonable prices then retail), but I received my MP Bumblebee V2 and Spoiler at about the same time, and only paid $18 Canadian more for Spoiler. The Bumblebee looks good from certain angles, but feels jangly, and does not tab together well in alt mode - even out of the box. This all makes me glad though, that my G1 collection is coming to a close. Thank-you for all the great videos. Look forward to more. Sorry for the super long rant.
Need Takara MP Blitzwing
That’s a lot of FansToys wishful thinking. 12-13 figures this year, that would be nice but I don’t think they will. I think they will finish the combiners, Warpath and Brawn all of which I’m looking forward to. That Soundwave looks dope! That would be a bonus if that comes out this year.
Yes it is wishful thinking but FT will grant many of these wishes this year. Thanks
I don't care that much about the fanstoys Soundwave except for their Ravage. I have MP Ravage and it's junk. I hope they release the Ravage cassette separately, as I feel Takara's other cassettes are pretty good.
My main issue with Takara's takes was the size. It looks like FT will be about the same size but different engineering. Still look forward to those. Thanks
GREAT VID BRO
Glad you enjoyed! Thanks
Don't you worry that all these Fanstoys projects that quality may begin to suffer?
I hope not but we will see how many they can crank out. I think they learned from the issues they had with Rouge and Hydra to take time and maintain quality.
Fancy cell astroturd. They should've mp sized it, oh well. Sucks to be them now.
Gcreation Wrath, UT Dragoon, TW Knight Orion, FT Thomas looks good but the "shuttle" mode unfortunately very looks bad...
With a triple changer one mode will suffer...glad it is not the robot mode! Thanks
Imperial ship with decepticon insignia is all kinds of wrong! Lol
I’m 40. I grew up with g1. It was the best show on tv when I was 5,6,7 years old. Now it just looks like crap. The idw and movie bots just look cooler. I still collect g1 masterpiece because they are good quality. But looks wise there isn’t a g1 that looks better then a movie bot or idw bot. They just look old. This is all my opinion.
Yeah new ssstar sssaber !!!
I have almost pulled the trigger on many others but this one may have sold me! Thanks
@@tydiriumhanger1320 no problem,ssstar sssaber it's my favorite autobot.
@@cobrageneral556 you and me both man! Here's to hoping we get an official MP Victory Leo!

Fanstoys fan boys are so annoying. I don’t understand why people gush over fanstoys so much. They really haven’t given anything that great lately. In the last two years they haven’t knocked anything out of the park really.
I see what you are saying. I just reviewed GOOSE and he looks great and transforms well and near perfect. His backpack is bad so not a complete home run. Thanks
That's the bad good news aways something better just when you think your done boom something new no rush for me and I don't mean the band
Yes it is a mixed bag of news when a new figure comes out that looks better than what I have on my shelf. I have cleared out some space for these guys by selling off some old so the sting will not be as bad. Thanks
Well looks like I will be picking up more overtime. Astrotrain is a must and most of the other ones I will entertain some of it but my funds are in on all the menasors and combiners in general. Will skip the mmc. Don’t care for his combined form. The zeta second edition is all I need for bruticus. They need to work on other combiners. Defensor computron and abominus would be nice. Def in on the fort max. That will be sick. Xtransbot covered most of the other ones for me so u less something sticks out totally I will pass on the ones I already have which is all from xtransbot. The dx9 blitzwing is excellent but the scale is wrong so might go in on fanstoys. All this showing will simply make Takara play catch up and unfortunately most of them will be over priced because people don’t need the actual company to release it. $159 for hound???? No thanks. Til that drops down close to $100 I won’t even entertain the idea. The cone heads I am quite pleased with takaras so will pass on those as well
Yes we need a good Computron and Abominus. Maybe Zeta or FT for those? Thanks
Tydirium hanger yeah I think they will all bet on seeing how all the menasors sell
ME NEED STAR SABER BADLY!!
(I’m trying to be funny btw)
Wonder how this Iron Trans will turn out. Thanks
Tydirium hanger no problem
Fanstoys Fortmax
I would love to see the first step to it becoming a reality. Thanks
I think that they're going outta the tf game. Hopefully they'll sell the rights/files of their existing prototype figs to another 3rdparty like KFC xtransbots or fanstoys to complete the Headmasters crews. We will all buy these in mp scale, companies shouldn't worry about those G1 figures. Personally I want these 3ps to chill out on making existing combiners, maybe make those we don't have yet idiots 👹, FTOYS has surpassed Takara for the moment, stop trying to beat them other 3rdparty's, once the GenToy Hotspot is ready to ship, everything will change finally getting a new complete Not'Defensor, ppl have been ragging about this set for awhile, I bet it'll sellout just like their Stunticons did at all u.s. Retailers did ppl complain-absolutely still kept buying the figures didn't they.
I personally don't really believe all this psychotic hysteria about absolute perfectly boring g1 cartoon aesthetics to 11billion degrees... I think that they're some-25% like that, and more than 60-75% mp collectors are wanting sophisticated looking pieces that capture the essence of the G186 movie then the show since most regular characters weren't even in the movie. Who truly loves loves loves the mp Ironhide, Inferno, Star Saber, how many people think that the autobot characters as a whole are too freaking small, I remember Sideswipe bluestreak looking at Screamer eye2eye, not up at him as if they were half his size nope. It seems 2me Takara Hasbro has forgotten about mass shifting unless its a Decepticon. How bout Tracks same size as Blaster right, not in the line again a midget in comparison. This is 1 reason for loving FTOYS and XTB they try2 get these bots Right, or make up4 past mistakes by the official companies. Ok said too much again, apologies Mike. Haven't been well but your videos have helped me while convalescing, blessings my XTB Gravestone, FANSHOBBY black godbomber, and yellow diaclone jinbao devastator,all coming
Also received sharpshooter-xmas gift,this latest Arialbot Skydive his name maybe
You can't say original if it's not from the 80's Gen 1...WTF bro!
Mmc Defensor.
Yes we need that for sure! Thanks
