Agreed

dude, they are developing interest, don't click on a link that says BLURRED IMAGE IN THE DAMNED TITLE AND THEN COMPLAIN ABOUT IT. Such a jagoff thing to do...
I stand with Kibble on this. They'd get far more interest generated if we could actually see something.

Plus they've already teased the project...so now show us something or shut up and work on the damn thing. And I disagree people would complain about being shown a prototype that actually shows something.

If, for example, they showed a clear proto pic, but then decided to change the design, people who saw the initial image would be pissed off that they went and changed it at what they perceive as being the 'last minute' (even though the fact is that it's probably pretty early in the dev phase that they start showing us these teasers).
These types of teasers and promos avoid that while still generating more product awareness and buzz within their potential/target customer base (namely us).
Yes it sucks to not see a complete proto or even the final figure in these early stages, but at the same time, it's marketing for their product. They can't do TV ads, so this is their only option so they need to get started much earlier to reach as many potential customers as possible in order to ensure that they'll have a significant market demand for their product once it finally is released.

In that case I go back to the stance of 'shut up and work on the damn thing' then... Like I said, it has already been teased, people are aware of their intent to put it out. If they want to show us WIP pics, great, then show them. If they don't, then don't. But the in between **** is just annoying.

I know you said "most people", but just for the record I wasn't. I'm kind of picky when it comes to the Aerialbots.JRFitzpatrick7 wrote:TFC made a Bruticus (which they would call Mars, hopefully)

Since they used the Roman spelling for Herc, I felt Mars fit best because it fits Roman them with Herc and planetary with Uranus!
