Couple of things :CON: :CON: Cyclops is beautiful!!!!!!!!!!! I can't wait!...I don't understand the Iron Giant / which character is the center piece? I obviously see the 4 character but who is the center piece? Perfect Effects is amazing she is very very neat looking...blue or pink? To be or not to be? Right now I am really high on Mastermind Creations VERY and I love the new Seeker Mold.....correct me if I am wrong but are they offering multiple scale with this figure? Lastly that Dr. Wu WheelJack head sculpt is amazing! :APPLAUSE: and I am so happy to hear that MakeToys Giant is very very durable like a dang consruction site no pun :KREMZEEK: :KREMZEEK: :KREMZEEK: :CON: :CON: intended.

One more thing with Mastermind Creations...for those of you turned off by the first KM-01 and the QC issues.....they were all fixed and I know everyone knows this. But until you have the tangible in hand you don't know what to expect. I have all three......KM-01 KM-02 and KM-01X they are AMAZING.......they have good weight and excellent articulation with AMAZING light piping.....place reprolabel chrome stickers on shoulders and BAAAMMMMMMMM SICKNESS!!!!!!!!!! I can only imagine how Cyclops will feel in hand and would go as far as to say that it will have ZILCHO with QC issues due to the fact they were so proactive with KM-01 and wanting a hardcore fans base. This is all of course IMO but I know quality when I have it in hand. I miss Fansproject.........what's up? I have all the Fansproject action City Commander... Crystal Protector....Bruticus...Insecticons. Igear MP replacement heads....Kup......SG Prime and Perfect Effect Camera...and mini warriors. I am happy with All THRID PARY ACTION AND HASBRO FOR ONCE......BUT WHERE IS FANSPROJECT?

Hm, I dunno how I feel about Hasbro not being able to enforce their rules. I like the 3rd party market, but am not so supportive of the KO market.

Oh well. What I've seen out of the pics from Botcon aren't really my sort of thing, but they all look great. Cyclops looks badass.
Wanted:
City Commander's head (KO or original)
Henkei Hot Rod's bio card
Universe Ironhide / Ratchet's gun/blade attachment

Holy crap, those Knight Morphers are boss. Especially Starscream. :x Alas, I haven't the budget for adding another expensive 3rd Party line to my collection.

PE Arcee/Chromia I'm really liking too and I wish I could keep my preorder, especially with the word from Hasbro being there is no classics Arcee on the horizon. Unfortunately I need to divert all the funds I can to Maketoys Giant for the time being.

That is Power Core Combiner Bombshock. Those also look nice combined with Heavy Tread.

I'm disappointed there was nothing new on show, but I feel even more justified in my decision to order Perfect Effect's RC.

I'm not. My wallet needs time to heal. :D

Really, this'll give us all more time to save up and get the stuff we really want. We've seen SO MANY 3rd party stuff ... there's no way to keep up with it all. Personally I need more time to get funds to buy what I want. Jolly Green Giant being "save up project" #1 for now.

Whoever is Poking THE BEAR.......STOP IT. You know it's like messing with the Boss and screwing around then everyone suffers and not just you. :HEADHURTS: now leave it alone will ya. :-? :BANG_HEAD: It was all good, Transforming robots is not proprietary and for us millions of Fans that are loyal to Hasbro ( Why they are still in business ) should here and there buy from others whom listen to our wants and needs becuase they are fans as well THEN SO BE IT. LONG LIVE CYBERTRON!!!!! :BOT: :CON: :KREMZEEK:
