Things 3rd-Party companies should make

Motto: "One look from me and you've lost"
Weapon: Black Magic
No clue if this has been discussed in another thread already, but here it is; suggest and support ideas, whether general or specific (general helps since more people will support it and hopefully aid its creation).

1. A Weapon pack that is especially designed to make use of the clip system.

2. Cybertronian-styled set pieces, ranging from fallen debris to dragon's teeth.

I had another, but it escapes me at the moment...

Generalized weapons packs would rock! They could do a couple sets of pistols, rifles and swords and not bother with unnecessary boxes and crates (I'm lookin' at you, iGear) and they'd make a killing! 10 weapons for $10-$15 would go over like gangbusters!

Exactly. I keep lookin at the newer figures and miss having guns to occupy the available clips. I steered clear of most of the crappy (imo) human alliance, and so missed out on most of the guns.

I agree, a pack like that would go over really well. But I've preordered the iGear weapons pack/crate with no remorse and I think even that's a great deal! To my knowledge, no one is offering a multi-weapon pack for even close to the price you're asking for, not even CLOSE. And look how much some of the single weapons cost on Shapeways, a 10 pack would be around $50. I believe you're being too hard on iGear, but to each their own. Still think $3/ea for weapons (and a "free" weapons crate) is a pretty good deal if it isn't HasTak distributing.

I'M A idea fan,so i could literally create a list in the infinty level.

Here's a short list of stuff I'd like to see get made by these 3rd party TF companies.

(1) headmaster zarak for the energon scorponok toy. also create the shield & large riffle gun with the clip thing.

(2)masterfoce styled headmaster for the energon/cbertron dark scorponok toy. include the shield,gun & red spiked sphere stick.

(3) Create protector styled trailer/armor for the SDCC Alternators rodimus toy.

(4)Leader sized 100% new mold for masterforce overlord. 2 voyager sized vhechicles,a tank & jet that merge to form a super robot overlord.

(5) lets gets some cancelled hasbro proto types,test shots,CGI images into 3rd party toy form. like the ROTF Tidalwave as a leader sized toy. leader sized animated tripple changer maruader megatron. cadillac escalade alternators megatron ultra sized.

(6) lets create more PCC drones that can transform into individual robot modes. for all the teams.

(7)G-1 Styled seeker head for the HFTD Leader sized starscream toy.

(8)create a whole new right arm that is super poseable for ROTF Leader sized Megatron.

(9)Ultra magnus trailer/armor for the MP-10 Convoy.

(10) animal based AEC styled minicons. like a bear,Shark,bull,boar,aligator,etc...

Replacement arms with better articulation for Classics Hot-Rod and Seekers.

Nullray cannons like the ones included with the Starscream coronation kit for all the other classic seekers.

Vortex and Brawl figures to replace the energon molds for the FP Bruticus set and a replacement head for Onslaught.

More target masters and headmasters.

I second Tidalwavx's idea about a replacement head, gun and shield for Energon Scorponok. Hell, I'm legit surprised we haven't seen that one yet.

A stock, silencer and mace for Classics Megatron, the stock and silencer combing to form a weapons platform.

A third-party Technobot set. After Devastator, Superion needs some help. ;)
Not caring about scale since 1984. Just like Hasbro.

I have always said that a TF is only as great as the weapon it carries. Now I think it would be great to see combiners Computron and a much needed Menasor, c'mon 3rd-Party people you can do it! The other thing that just came to my mind was Armada Shockwave (Tidalwave) and give him to grand size weapons to peg onto his mini-con pegs at the end of both arms and re-sculpted craft for his legs for better articulation and range of movement. Of course a total tribute to Armada Shockwave would just be :shock: .:VEHI:

They should make things Hasbro just won't. A combining Menasaur and the Protectobots would be nice.

Classics Dinobots. We don't really need Grimlock, the rest would be nice. TFC did an admiral job trying with that .... sort of, but this is the era of second options and I'd like an option that would really fit here.

The Sharkticons and Allicons. iGear said it was planning some Sharkticons .... would love to see them finish that.

Arbulus and Kranix. To round out the movie case.
