Might have been covered before, but I'm surprised that no one has made an official upgrade kit for the FP Insecticons to make them more G1?
I know a fan was making his own home made kits for sell, but that was a long time ago, and I think it was an expensive kit and may not have even been released?

While show-accurate heads and guns would have been nice you have to admit... pretty hard to improve ninjas.

I would love to see G1-accurate characters to MP scale and detail to flesh out my Masterpiece collection, specifically characters Takara would never bother doing Masterpiece figures for. Throttlebots? Powermasters? Oooo, I would LOVE some MP Pretenders!

I hate to say it, but iGear could just copy that custom one on ebay. It's pretty damn nice. It's using the leader brawl and MP Starscream figure molds.

Seeing as FansProject has already brought us 2 triplechangers I don't think it's entirely out of the question that they'll give us Blitzwing one day. Just need to be patient until then.

Considering that Hasbro already did Astrontrain and Octane, I think many third party companies are worried if they did a Blitzwing, one could show up in the stores from Hasbro and under cut them. That's why they went with toys that Hasbro is less likely to make like Springer and Broadside.
X-Transbots has hinted at a triple changer line with a Springer and a Sandstorm.
