I must be the only one who like the blue & yellow...

I get that they're (probably) a nod to the circuitry stickers we used to get with G1 figures, but they strike me as out-of-place given the reletive blandness of his upper body.

I like this figure quite a bit.

Pre-Order seems to have been and gone already on Kapow - anyone else going to put a pre-order up?

Why is it not on BBTS, Robot Kingdom, or TF Source yet ???

Has anyone else noticed that the "Big 3" seem to avoid selling certain random 3rd party figures ???


Toyworld Hegemon a "no-go" but Toyworld Throttlebots are ok ???

Everyone scared to sell Art-Feather Bumblebee ??? (Big props to Tony)

Survival Specialist Wheelie ???

I can understand the KO's but WTF ???

Not at all. They've just go the page ready for once they get details of how much and how many. They haven't gone on sale just yet.

1. KapowToy's only has a placeholder. The other e-tailers will eventually have this up for pre-order.
2. Hegemon closely resembles MP Megs which is why BBTS and TFSource didn't carry it.
3. Art Feather BB... What do you expect, it a blatant rip off.

No need for panic... the preorder page on Kapow Toys only appears to be a placeholder & doesn't even have a price listed. These aren't ready for sale just yet...

You should email them if you are interested though, that's what they have advised on facebook.

I personally find it amusing how they distingush which 3rd party figures are modest IP theft vs. blatant IP theft. It's like one big joke. If your Fansproject or TFC, your blatant IP theft gets downgraded to modest IP theft. But if youre a small, up and coming company you get no love.

Well, TFC/FP at least is using a different name and they don't even use the insignias... Art Feather's BB is really that bold.
