Another 3rd party Transformers maker has stepped into the arena with two new products for fans. iGear Toys, the new kid on the block, will be producing two sets: An Ultra Magnus head and accessories to be used with FansProject’s City Commander set as previously seen here; and an Autoscout. TF08.net has posted pictures on their site of these two sets.

iG-TF001, Ultra Magnus Accessories will include a new head sculpt, missles, gun, and a sword. Release date set for April.

iG-TF002, Autoscout will fit into Soundwave’s chest. Release date set for May and will include a mini comic.

Not sure about the head but the additional accessories look pretty nice. If the price is right, I'm all over it.

What episode was the autoscout in?

Another Autoscout? This does look more cartoon-accurate, but it begs the questions, why the sudden interest in tapes and will there be a cybertronian laserbeak in the works?

I like my City Commander head mold already but the other accessories look great! I hope it's affordable though.

I'm good with the current City Commander head.

Classics Prime has an 'anime' vibe to him, so the CC head works just fine.

I already spend a dumb amount of money for G1 Magnus missiles and launchers and the sword isn't necessary really.

This autoscout is more show accurate than the TFC's one and brings a comic. Since it is also a single item unlike the TFC's pack with other things I don't need, I'm choosing this one instead.

I want that autoscout

I'm tempted, but unless these are really cheap, like under $10, I won't be getting them.

I doubt they'll be that cheap...

We get it. City commander was awesome and everyone wants to make things for it. You want to make an entry into the market by making more awesome components for it.

Let's see new accessories for other characters now.
