TakTomy exec 1) We have to come up with a another lucky*draw transformer. Who has ideas?
exec 2) We can do a gold or silver plated Animated figure, fan love the metal ones?
exec 3) We made that green Unicron, lets make a fire burning Primus.
exec 4) I asked the publicity guys to see what fans are looking for. They seem to think we should do more e-hobby type specials, but get this they say theirs some guy on the internet called Metalhead or something like that who said he would buy every single version of the Henkei Convoy mold we put out.
exec 2) That sounds like he's challenging us.
exec 3) Yes, I feel we should teach this Metal of Head a lesson.
exec 1) Very well, 4 let the guys know they'll have another Convoy to taunt the fans with.

I suspect it went very similar to that, Editor! I think you're onto something. It's just like the time someone said they'll get every Minicon, and then they made a unique one for Aaron Archer's wedding cake topper.

FML.

I want all the "Classics" Starscream/Seekers mold, but only have the classics Starscream and Ramjet right now. I've got 2 of each actually. Experimented with some part swaps on my spares for a custom project, the conehead with standard wings looked cool as did standard head with the modified wings. Has/Tak has so much variety with all the wing/body combinations on this set of molds they could have us in seeker overload in a wave or 2 and add to the list of G1 characters in the process. And there are so many more things they could do with the SG line as well, I would like to see a SG Ultra Magnus and Nemesis Prime personally, maybe as a TFCC 2-pack set. I would get it, I don't care ho much it costs.

RELEASE BLACK CONVOY ALREADY!!!

Amirite?

Yep.

Honestly, I've always just suspected that those figures that showed up were just one-offs for the SDCC Nemesis Convoy. I really never expected them to be produced. eh.

It's possible but not likely. Red transparent plastic instead of blue. Nearly all dark black plastic instead of the lighter colors we got. Fairly different paint apps and Bot symbols not Con. The faction symbols would probably be the easiest to accept as a "test" piece. I'd like to think you're right on one hand. On the other, I still want the bloody thing no matter who's right.

Yeah, quit trying to crush our dreams, CP!

lol @ Editor's story. :mrgreen:

James T. Kirk hasn't made an appearance in a "repaint thread" for a while, please correct that, sir.

Baby, they can repaint the Seeker mold all day long and I'll still buy it. I really hope they get all the Animated ones.

Leader Starscream - they need to repaint it into Thundercracker or Skywarp...

that would me awesome, but I think the voyager cybertron SS would be a better choice for those repaints

I am a sucker for Seekers. If it's a Seeker, repaint or not, I will most likely get it. Unless it's one of those one eyed ones. What's up with that?

by **PowerEncarnate** » Sun Jan 31, 2010 9:57 pm

As far as seekers go I prefer Classics, Titanium WW, and Masterpiece figures. Just love the G1 time line over the other franchises, But the others are cool to. Just one question though, whats with the Cybertron TC/SW figure design? I about got sick when I saw that funky gun arm of his. I missed most of the classics seekers when they came out and getting them now is proving difficult. I refuse to get the TFTM/ROTF "Seekers" other then protoform SS though. Liked the movies, hate the toylines.

*edit* I'm even planning on getting the KO Classics Seekers to repaint into custom characters and both Botcon and henkie versions of them for untouched and mod'ed figures.

if it's in continuity like a nemesis prime r.i.d or scourge armada sure but lately black rodimus primes have been catching my eye.
How bout clear versions, do those count cause if so ghost starscream and crystal figures in general rock.
