Extensive Look at Pre-Production Headrobot's Hothead

Still it does make me want Classics Hard Head now, Has Tak will be better off letting the third Parties continue, tehy make me buy stuff I other wise would leave on the sehelves.

you are a hard guy to please. there is a lot more articulation. ball jointed shoulders and hips. Independent legs, when compared to the G1 where the legs were pinned together at the knees. Better sculpt? how? Its just some guns and a little guy that turns into a head.

Why dont you make something yourself. Design it, prototype it, and actually manufacture it and then see how well it goes.

only one company has exceeded expectations and that is Fansproject.

Everything else is bantha poodoo. Albeit an occasional exception. Most stuff is overly designed for no good reason, or plain poor engineered in the design.

also in defense of the design, It does try to cover both G1 and Universe/Classics. Not a simple thing to accomplish in designing the aesthetics as well as the engineering.

If you make it too much like G1, it doesnt work with Classics and vice versa.

I'd ignore him if I were you, he complains about alot of great stuff that everyone else seems to love.



I'd get this. But sadly, Hardhead is a bitch to find ANYWHERE.

What's your problem, are you some kind of cyber bully telling others what to do. If you read what I said, I'm only pointing out pros and cons. I'm impressed by alot of stuff out there and that's my point. Just because I don't agree with the majority doesn't mean I can't have an opinion. Your statement is totaly faulse and rude, You are basicaly ordering someone to ignore someone else becuase they have a different opinion from others and the opinion which you said I have is faulse to start with. You need to fix up.

Anyone else who has a problem with what I say PM me as I'm not going to get drawn it yet more arguments in the public domain just becuase I have an opinion, 99% of the time others are then distorting it or taking one thing I've said to start a pointless argument, it detracts from the thread and isn't fair on others and myself.

I thought I was quite clear in saying that all though I feel it's not as impressive as I imagined it could be rar rar rar.. that I still think it's a good product. And that I am very impressed with what is on offer at the moment. Aswel as some very jaw droppping products, there are equally extremly questionable designs and decisions made on products that ae currently available.
I will take on board what you have said. I try not to offend anyone when I am disagreeing with there opinion and I try to give a balanced opinion, I look for the good and bad in everything. If you could PM and show me an incident where you feel my method is what's causing the problem please do, becuase at the moment I feel it's a personal vendetta against me, as each attack is personal against me, when I have not attacked anyone on a personal level. What's worse is when I defend myself I am then attacked for that.
