If Im reading his posts correctly, it seems he has canned the "limited" number releases in favor of accepting all pre-orders within the 1st 48 hours of his site going live. That's a very respectable move since many of us were waiting at 1 PM PST yesterday for nothing. Nobody should have to sit in front of a computer all day hitting refresh to compete with other buyers. Ive always said he should adopt the "make to order" approach style of business but send invoices out in small groups to avoid a Maiden Japan style scenario. Either way, when his site goes live, I plan on placing a pretty large order now. Thanks Azim. As far as feedback on size for the Stunticon guns...keep them small pistol sized guns so they dont look like rifles. Keep the big gun big as it is perfect for Menasor. Maybe do a smaller version for motormaster that doesnt seem over sized.
He's said on facebook that he'll honour all pre-orders made within the first 48 hours of the pre-orders going live, regardless if it's above the advertise "Limited" number.
That said, I want that Menasor gun for my FP Menasor.

There's a bunch of versions (expressions, piped/not piped) and 20 pics, so go to the FB page to see em allRF-017 - ROAD SHOGUN upgrade head for Combiner Wars Menasor! This is a G1 toy inspired head, given a more samurai styling. This head has 6 variants, based on eyes (painted or light piped) and three facial expression, Calm, Angry, and Rage. The options are not interchangeable, so you will have to order the combination you like best, as that will be how the head will be produced, due to parts needing to be glued. The price for each head will be $20.00. The photos show a prototype version. The final pieces will have the same finish all Renderform products have, and the faces will be more defined. Feedback is welcomed while the design is being finalized. CHECK the entire gallery for all the combination options.

Venk - what would be SUPER AWESOME is if you created some type of gift set for RF-17. This is going only by what I *think* you're doing here, but please humor me: I'm guessing the face plate is a separate piece from the helmet and eyes. I would be totally into buying a set at a bit higher price if it had the following: 1 helmet, 1 eyes (painted or light piped), and all 3 face plates. Not sure if that's even feasible based on how you designed them, but would make a really kick ass set. And at least cut down production time of making multiple helmets.
Anyways, thanks for this round of upgrades. A new head, Stunticon weapons, Animated Menasor head (*swoon*) and a Jetfire rifle are going to be ordered. I'll expect them sometime in September
*edit - oh damn, almost passed up the Eliminator gun. I'm not fully awake yet*

Purple MM/Menasor gun , i wonder if it will fit the PE hands?
and the g1 menasor head with clam face and painted eyes , so the eyes dont look dead when theres no light shining through .

I like you. You're good peopleVenksta wrote:If you have the original black version, I don't recommend picking up the metallic one. The difference is not that huge, unless their side by side, or seen up close.
megatronus wrote:What'd you order, X?
I got a set of G1 Stunticon guns (plus the MM/Menasor one), both banshee blades, and the frost fury blade.
I might add more later (that green fury blade would go great with EVA Prime...), but I wanted to get that minimum in.

I ordered the classic G1 Menasor head with the light piping and rage face, the black jetfire gun, the stunticon gun set in G1 colors, the purple motormaster gun, a large orange sword for my botcon ginrai, and the rivet gun for a special figure im working on. Cant wait to get my order.

Interesting. It's hard for me to give orange energy weapons to Ginrai. When he has blue light piping and chest windows, my OCD kicks in and he MUST have blue!
Sounds like you have an awesome haul! Glad you were given the opportunity to pick up a Jetfire gun.
Here is a quick mock up to show how scaled down versions of the Stunticon guns will look like, using Breakdown and Dragstrip's designs. The bottom row is the current over sized prototypes. Middle row is scaled down to 75%, while the top row is 50% of the size. The peg handles can not be scaled down, so you can see in relation to that, how each gun will look like. At the 75% size, the guns would be in line with previous guns I've made for deluxe kits, like the Red Alert kit. The 50% size would be just small than the hand pistol from the Gold Scout kit. Photos have been attached for reference.
