I do think this is impressive, however I only want 1 Reflector team and the PE set is more of what I want.

I have the PE set waiting on my pre-order list from BBTS, but I'm gonna buy this regardless, specially if it helps funding their project Deva in any way.

In that situation a far superior product was made available to the public. If you are referring to the autoscout, nobody cares because the rest of the TF Club set is the reason they bought it. Your comment is trolling. Obviously. Certainly ruffled my feathers.

Settle down, chief. It was a joke with a relevant point...and it obviously went over your head. The point is TFC sure has a lot of projects in the works, but we're still waiting for most of them to actually see release. How about rather than them just talking about all 763 projects they focus on actually getting some of them out? And I hope I don't have to explain the iGear part of the joke now...

Now go outside and have a smoke or whatever you need to do to calm down and I'll be here when you get back to listen to your apology.

Those aren't all TFC projects, the only stuff they're working on at the moment is the Devastator, this and those tank guys. The rest are other people's sets which they distribute but do not invest time and effort into producing and designing.
I-Gear has far more projects it has announced and still hasn't produced till today, it took them 1 year to release their first product, a year in which they announced around 15 things, half of which still haven't been made.

These guys are catching up though. Yes it is only three projects, but each project has at least 3 separate transformers. I don't think we have yet to see one complete yet either, unless Hook and Scavenger are supposedly finished.

TFC needs to actually get a product to market.

They need to get a product out that doesn't suck.

The Targetroids and headmaster heads are lame.

They also need to make sure Devastator pieces don't average $90 a pop.
