Nevermind, I found that link. The silhouette based on Wreck-Gar is named Collector, so now I feel like a fool

I can't find it to confirm my theory, but I do believe Guardian is the next figure they make, plus their comics are set up to introduce their next custom, based on city-commanders and Protector in Defender's comic. Again, I'm sure I am WAY off. Just thought I'd throw that out there.

They're calling the Wreck-Gar figure "Collector". comes in young male, elder male & young female. And they can ride each other.

FP aren't doing Wreck-Gar as far as I know, I heard they were doing other Junkticons. A male, female and another (older male?). Anyway, I think they were titled Collector, so I would assume it is just Collector-1, Collector-2 and Collector-3. This was a year ago or so though so maybe the name has changed.

Edit: I was beaten to it

Epic...just epic. I wish I could afford the Protector set so I could read this whole comic.

Seems to me that G3 was the name of OP's trailer, it WAS the G3 trailer. He is also CLEARLY next to the G3 trailer when he puts a hand on it and talks to it, referring to it as G3, this is also where he mentions that he and Guardian will do their best, so logically I would infer that Guardian is his trailer.

That's how I see it anyway.

I can get behind this theory. I usually get too wrapped up in the thought that the trailers are extensions of that leader and therefore don't have a name of their own. But given that this trailer is both additional armour AND a battle station, this makes sense.

Damn you DangerousFat! I was dreaming of FansProject Omega.

I hope they don't ever make an Omega Supreme. If Springer ran me $80, Swindle $45, Blast-Off $45. Omega would probably weigh in around $215. The wife will NEVER allow that, so it's best that they don't put the temptation there.

Yeah, at that price range it might just be worth it to make one out of scratch instead. I kept on wanting to get a Thundercracker but the prices that he goes for meant it was just cheaper to repaint an Acidstorm that I have. I would love to heavily modify the hell out of a Tidalwave toy and turn it into Overlord.

That's exactly what I've been doing today. The hardest part you're going to have is if you use different arms. I'll post wip pics in a kitbash thread if you want.

Nice to see Protector's still a whiny puss.

Other than that, Helsinki yes. FansProject continues to outdo themselves.
