If the do decided to go bigger I love to see an MP Fort Max or a Metroplex .... Tryticon would rock too. It would probably end my colecting days though nothing would top it.

Devastator!!!

A masterpiece figure of him would be awesome. It wouldn't even need to be in scale with Optimus and Megatron(since Starscream isn't). All that would matter is that it'd be G1 accurate, highly poseable, and detailed. A 12-14 inch Devastator at a price point of $149.99, would be ideal.

First of all, yes, I'd buy a Masterpiece gestalt, pretty much regardless of what gestalt it was.

However, I also agree with pretty much all the reasons to the negative. It would be a scale nightmare if that's your thing, and either way it would be too large or too small. The mechanics do seem most prohibitive, becuase just as an example G1 Devastator is terribly constructed with that hip plate and Long Haul/Hook balancing act. The cost would be massive if each figure were seperately done to MP standards, and not just five-six generic figures with the detail level of the combined form being the real selling point.

But yes, I would.

I personally would like to see an alternator's size/quality Devs...it would only cost about £120 and they could even sell the combiners separately (but with current distribution that would be bad)

Admittedley the scale would be wrong but they could get some decent detail with alt sized constructicons...and the chances of an MP scale/quality Devs are just non existant
