Damn.. The extra stuff comes with the G2 version. They are smart.. I don't know if I can bite on that version though.

The Fallen altogether looks fantastic. Release date?

Hey man.. they just want to milk your wallet.. nothing wrong with that

Didn't have much time to talk about The Fallen. Was too busy cheesed out on the whole concept of the Toy Fair

They are working it well. Ah, bummer..but understandable. Minibots on display?

I find it odd FP didn't show anything new.

No Mini-bots. FansProject wasn't there, it was just Maketoys.

I think I'm going to gun for the G2 version first. Just for the extra stuff

I want to know what the extra stuff is before I bite on the G2 version but I may go that path since I'll have the TFC green version.

The Fallen eh? Paint him red and yellow and give us a thrid party armada-like Overload sounds better to me.

Love the Prime upgrade.

Not sure how the figure above resembles the fallen in any way. Was the fallen even part of G1 in the Japanese cartoons ??? I thought Michael Bay created the character...

If the Maketoys Devi comes out in G2 colors, ill buy it. If not, Im sticking with TFC Devi.

Sun Oct 16, 2011 10:44 pm

The fallen i'm gonna buy as soon as I see pre-orders. the toy looks to be voyager or ultra sized.

Giant I like better than hercules. I don't have the budget money to buy neither & I'd rather buy otherr 3rd party stuff in 2012 like Hexatron,G-1 new mold ultra magnus by CHMS,Dinobots combiner. 3rd party MP Soundwave.

If I get more budget money i'll buy giant in a heart beat in G-1 green & purple colors.

M. Bay definitely didn't create the Fallen.

MakeToy is putting out the G2 color scheme and as Blurrz said, it will have extra goodies. I may double dip and get both. Definitely going to kill the budget though.

Simon furman first created the idea of the fallen. don figueroa first created the art designs of the fallen. I suspect simon furman had a general idea how he wanted the fallen to look like. don figueroa & simon most likely both help create the fallen's design

How does it sound better? they look nothing alike. :-(

And 3mm clip points! what's Maketoys up to?

If done right, MakeToy looks to be a serious competitor in the 3rd party market. Absolutely LOVING The Fallen. So huge and bad ass looking. Just impressive looking.

Their "Battle Tanker" is another impressive looking piece. Just really loving what I am seeing from them. I hope they can keep their pricing down as much as possible. That's the only thing that is worrying me.

And I'll be buying their Green Devy when it comes out. This is the one I've been waiting for more then the TFClub's version.

Mon Oct 17, 2011 10:03 am

maketoys devi is definitely more on par with G1 devi in the looks department. infact, it looks almost like G1 devi with all the crazydevy parts! albeit, just a bit bulkier. not sure how much bigger the fallen is tho. hes only about an inch taller than deluxe size optimus? looks big in picture. definitely getting tanker upgrade!

I can see a resemblance, the thick shoulders, thighs and waist. The head is a different story, but remolded would loook good.

Tank looks great! His arms are huge. lol Any news on the light up sword Blurrz?

The Fallen=Pure win.

Green will be released alltogether, just with less special stuff.

Didn't hear anything about the light up sword.

Fallen's swords is BMF.

Sad news about the green version. I was hoping they would release the bots separately, I can't afford $400 in one go. :-(

Still, looks like a must-have, perhaps even moreso than FP's Bruticus.

woah. giant looks pretty big. close to supreme class it looks like. does that mean tfc herc will be bigger than supreme class? anyone that attended the show have a ruler to measure this guy? in inches preferably

News Credits: 1 · Mon Oct 17, 2011 1:02 pm

Herc won't be THAT much bigger in size measurement-wise, but the proportions are different. Herc's head is the highest point of his body while on Giant that goes for his shoulders.

I'm impressed with the height of the Constructicon shown. I thought these would be Scout sized.

Mon Oct 17, 2011 4:21 pm

even they grey prototype looks badass. this is all im preordering this year as its all i want. :APPLAUSE:

on a side note this isnt bashing but whats up with g1 uppers? i mean while i didnt expect resin proto's at least some artwork to tell us where youre headed.just saying >:oP

I completely agree about the Fallen.

The pricing is fair I think. Yeah, it's higher than what we'd expect from FP, but I think we are also getting a little more from these guys. Excellent looking trailer that turns into the battle station and armor, two swords for Prime(one with lights), a sword for drift, and the gun. That's a decent amount of accessories IMO.

These guys are hitting a grand slam. The Fallen size is outstanding. Move over Megatron, the Fallen is about to take over my Decepticon army. I'm also impressed by the size of the Constructicon.

Mon Oct 17, 2011 4:58 pm

i was just thinking if they keep the 2packs at around their projected cost of 135 then imo its worth the money especially if theyre deluxe sixed and come with acessories. mun/exp were scout and were 100 and included acc. so their prices are somewhat inline with fp.

News Credits: 198 · Mon Oct 17, 2011 6:03 pm

I just don't see how they're going to get Giant (or any of his 2-packs) released this year when we haven't seen anything in color or any pre-orders yet.

Agree with the earlier comment, when they do make that Fallen, Megatron might be bumped down a rank or two on my shelf.

News Credits: 1235 · Mon Oct 17, 2011 10:33 pm

The Fallen does look outstanding!

Tue Oct 18, 2011 4:04 am

That's going to be MY Devy right there. Sorry TFC.

That release schedule looks "ambitious" though to say the least.
