Does anyone know how I might go about contacting Perfect Effect? I have (very) rough drawings of an idea for Ramhorn as a tank/hammer (Rhammer? Ramhammer?) to counter the Trident. And I think that Perfect may truly, and honestly be interested in this. Problem is, I don't know how to contact them. Or if I even could, for that matter, as I believe they are a Chinese third party company, correct?

let me preface this with an admission that I've never even bought a PE product, let alone contacted them and have only the barest knowledge of who they are and what they do.

now. about contacting them...have you tried their website? (if they have one?) most websites have some kind of email link on them somewhere. if not, there's always the possibility of trying to contact them through one of their distributors.

and about your idea...I personally think they'll have already considered how to make the various animal Cassette-formers into vaguely recognisable alt-moded figures. I assume that as they're now touching on them with the condors, and wouldn't be surprised to see a Ravage/Steeljaw type soon. If you truly believe in your idea, I would recommend first asking them if they're interested before sending any real details of the design. If they want to hear what you've got to say, fair enough, but be careful, and don't be upset if they've already got plans for that particular character, or for legal reasons don't want to hear a thing about your design.

I completely figured as much as far as all of that is concerned... I just kinda wanted to test the waters here before I did anything that would embarrass myself. Anyways, thank you for the input.

I would suggest contacting some of their resellers, such as BBTS, Robot Kingdom, Captured Prey, etc. Perhaps someone will be willing to give you their contact information.

If that doesn't work, PM Venksta, he's usually got an in with many 3rd party companies.

I find it very unlikely this will succeed but I wish you luck.
