Oh scr@p!

I should have had saved the pic. It was there 3 hours ago. FP must have taken it down.

The picture imho looked like a mock up in gray of an armored vehicle that came with a mechanical looking/powered armor pilot.

Given the name "heart master", maybe they bastardized it from head master?

Wasnt this pic a prototype Heart Master (which was their version of powermasters)

Yeah, that's more or less the 'bot in the site but with more angled posses and clearer pilot picture.

To me, its a powermaster version of WW Grimlock, but im probably wrong

Is that supposed to be someone in particular? Or a all-new design homaging the old concept?

Best guess: both. The vehicle mode is very War Within Grimlock.

I dunno, classics grimmy was naff for me, so yea i have the MP, but a grimmie to fit in with my deluxes would be cool, and WW Grimlock was pretty funky, would fit in brilliantly with the WFC figs

I wonder if there's a way to do a Powermaster add-on kit for Classics Prime. Might be a bit difficult but I'd like to see one done.

Maybe an add-on for the fansproject armour or something?

Isn't that what the 3rd party bonus for Slagacon is?

im one of those who displays the MP with the deluxes. the aesthetic fits really well, and i dont give a crud if he is taller than voyager prime, hes a metal T-rex for cripes sake! but thats just my justification.

aaanyway, with that said i cant really think of who he would resemble otherwise. it looks like we will need to see paint to truly discern

FansProject have posted new images of their new Heart Master figure, first revealed at this year's BotCon. The figure comes with a smaller figure, and appears to pay homage to G1's Powermaster figures. Check out the new images mirrored below.

Is it just me, or does this not match the usual Fansproject aesthetic? It's cool and all... just different.

Yeah it looks like Fansproject is going for a more anime-inspired look as of late, which I have to say they pull off really well.

Just in case people are still wondering who it is, it is War Within Grimlock

Robot mode is only loosely based from off WW Grimlock but the vehicle modes are pretty much the same, except that one has wheels. =P

Really? Aside from the smokestacks, I don't really see Grimlock in that. It looks really cool, but I may pass if it doesn't turn out to be an important TF character. I need to save money somehow.

Really? I can see where you get that but I'm getting more of a Roadbuster vibe. Still, the coloration will give it away.

The BotCon pictures intrigued me but didn't make this look that special. These pictures on the other hand, make this thing look incredible. I can't wait to see the color scheme on this masterpiece. The Powermaster has elbow and knee articulation... =P~

Btw, his chest/belly section looks a little odd.

I agree, it's gotta be someone of significance. What happend to me was when first images for Warbot came out it got my attention. Then when it was finally available to buy I just didn't dig it. I don't wanna repeat of that mess...'nuff said! :VEHI:
