I just feel we should be getting G1 classic versions of our favorite characters from 3rd party companies before they start creating bizzare variations themed for the smallest of Transformer audiences.

So...this is a pointless whiny post?

Got it.

At least I gave an honest opinion. Im not feeling the wild west theme. If everybody just gave the same old boring posts like "It will be mine" or "Pass" this forum would be pretty boring. If you disagree with my opinon, try explaining why...

Make a G1 Shockwave Classics-ish figure. Have to deal with import gun laws and all of that crappy import stuff. Has no design to start with, thus fans can infinitely complain about how bad the figure is. Sales will epic fail if Hasbro decides to make the figure instead. (Sure, Deflector hit the jackpot, but looks at IT Arcee after i-Gear Arcee, that figure is freaking junk now. Perfect Effect Rumble/Frenzy?) Straight up creations for G1 Characters that already have representations on toy collector's shelves is just a bad idea.

OR

Make a Shockwave toy based off a comic design that will never be touched by Hasbro ever. Will make huge profit based off of the fanbase that likes these designs and the quality of the product from certain third party. Does not have to worry about competition or originality, thus profit ensues.

Because it *is* a pointless, whiny post.

You come into this thread, a thread about Hearts Of Steel Shockwave and say it sucks (which is fine) and then go on about G1 Shockwave, and to me that just seems like a waste of time. A 3rd party already gave you the Shockwave you're clamoring for...the bootleggers responsible for "reissuing" the original. Hasbro won't do you any favors, so you're sol.

Your post came across like "it's not G1 Shockwave, so I don't want it, waaa!!!!" in a thread having nothing to do with that version.

It seems like a waste of time. It'd be like going into a bar, and complaining about the alcohol in there. Everyone would look at you like "WTF are you doing here then?" and they'd be right.

Didn't know if it had been noted yet that MC updated their blog with a parts layout to KM03 Cyclops.

Still looking good.

Freakin' A it still looks good! IMHO I think this alt mode compliments Annihilators alt mode totally. You got one steamer on land (tracks) and another on water....'nuff said!
