^ bazinga!
Im ready for something new...
Oddly enough, I'm not. I think it boils dow to cost for me. When it comes to original characters from Hasbro, I buy many of them because they look cool and are pretty cheap. However if a 3rd Party puts out something that is just as, if not more, cool and interesting it will be a lot more expensive for a character that I don't have any previous emotional attachment to. I just don't know if I'm ready to spend that type of dough. Time will tell I suppose.
This is true for me as well.
Heartmaster looked much more appealing after he was shown to be very similar to WW Prime. But even then he's a step removed from someone like Defender. Even their new not-Broadside is too obscure for me to really want to shell out money for. I have no emotional attachment to that guy whatsoever.

I think this way both parties win. we get our transformers homage and FP can crate their original characters. granted their original character would have to have some likeness to a transformers....

Fansproject was the best at the 3rd party game but now , well a year hiatus is very disappointing.

As always, if a product needs to be rushed in order to meet a predetermined release date then I'd rather sit patiently and twiddle my thumbs. A happy medium may be to not announce a release date or preorders until the thing is closer to being ready, not months in advance. Based on what (little) we've seen this seems to be the case with Steelcore.
On another note, FPC has been down for maintenance a lot over the past douple of days. Hopefully something big is coming.

They are not timely in their product delivery or with their information delivery.
They launched an ambitious website that has really gone nowhere. Why would I trust them with my money for longer than PayPal will allow me to file a claim for?
They've made some good stuff but this reeks of failure.
