If it didn't come across that way in my previous posts, I apologize, but the molds of any on-screen characters and their redecos from all four Movieverse toylines, as well as any non-screen mold from the 2007-2008 Movie line (like Longarm and Incinerator), have licensing issues with Paramount that keep Fun Pub from being able to use them at their leisure.
Meaning that the only Movieverse toys they can use at their disposal are non-screen character molds from ROTF, 2010, and DOTM.
I kinda figured that went without saying.Seibertron wrote:I don't think you understood what I meant with my question. You realize what "thanks to licensing concerns" really means, right? Like I've been saying, it comes down to $$$$

Only the Decepticons are clones in this Fun Pub story. So Hoist, Strika, and Obsidian are their true selves, and Optimus (if he shows up but the brochuse says he's out of commission) would likely be himself too.Caelus wrote:Jhiaxus has a funny idea of cloning, and its practical application.
"Hey Optimus! Welcome back to base! I hope your mission was successful; when did you get the elaborate black and teal paint job? And the red optics?"

Nope. Because Tankor, Thrust, and Jetstorm were Rhinox, Waspinator, and Silverbolt, respectively, in new bodies with shell programming hiding their true identities. We already have pre-Beast Wars toys of Waspinator and Rhinox.
That was in case those who missed out on the '08 set could have one for the '12 set since they were doing SG again.Blurrz wrote:Mindmaster wrote:Axelbro wrote:strika and obsidian i hope we will get thrust tankor and jetstorm for a nice shelf

Who knows bud, we got a new SG Optimus Prime in '12 despite one being released in '09.

Not when Paramount holds (part of?) the license to that mold.Rated X wrote:If they were going to draw Obsidian with propeller hands, they should have just went with the Incinerator mold.
I'd agree if this was meant to be the same guy as the 1997 Megaplex.Rated X wrote:And sombody please photoshop a Megatron head on that Megaplex drawing and tweet the crap out of it. If the fans give them hell, maybe by June theyll have some Megatron heads made like they did green headbands last year.
