Might have been covered before, but I'm surprised that no one has made an official upgrade kit for the FP Insecticons to make them more G1?

I know a fan was making his own home made kits for sell, but that was a long time ago, and I think it was an expensive kit and may not have even been released?

While show-accurate heads and guns would have been nice you have to admit... pretty hard to improve ninjas.

I would love to see G1-accurate characters to MP scale and detail to flesh out my Masterpiece collection, specifically characters Takara would never bother doing Masterpiece figures for. Throttlebots? Powermasters? Oooo, I would LOVE some MP Pretenders!

I hate to say it, but iGear could just copy that custom one on ebay. It's pretty damn nice. It's using the leader brawl and MP Starscream figure molds.

Seeing as FansProject has already brought us 2 triplechangers I don't think it's entirely out of the question that they'll give us Blitzwing one day. Just need to be patient until then.

Considering that Hasbro already did Astrontrain and Octane, I think many third party companies are worried if they did a Blitzwing, one could show up in the stores from Hasbro and under cut them. That's why they went with toys that Hasbro is less likely to make like Springer and Broadside.

X-Transbots has hinted at a triple changer line with a Springer and a Sandstorm.

I'd buy a decent set of the G1 tripplechangers.

Octane and Astrotrain could be redone, both of those molds have their issues, especially Octane.

If they could be from 1 company in 1 style, that would be even better.

This is my want list.
Shapeway, or anything, GET TO IT!

-- Weapons and accessory sets for Alternators. We have the reprolables, now we just need some decent weaponry to turn some Alternators into Masterpieces.
Hous and Jazz being top priority for me.

-- Splitstream. A jet that turn into one shapely and sexy robot. No, that stupid Club repaint dont count.

-- DC X-Over Batman. A Batmobile that turn into Batman. I expecially want the Tim Burton 1989 version.

-- A "workstation" that can fit inside the DotM very empty Optimus Prime's Deluxe trailer.

I wouldn't mind a Classiceverse Sliptream that made from a heavily modified Classics Starscream. It wouldn't be easy by any means since that mold is very blocky and masculine, but since the entire robot mode is just on the bottom of the jet, basically, it ought to be possible.

Not going to hold my breath or anything, though.

I'm resurrecting this thread! HA! HA!

I just hope 3rd parties are already developing a nice kit for the new Hoist/Trailbreaker deluxe figures.

They need their G1 wings and hand cannons. Maybe even an extra shoulder cannon!!!!

I love upgrade kits!!!!

I love third party accessories

, I want a pack of weapons. For example the weapons in Prime Beast Hunters like the rifle that Ultra Magnus uses in the show that thing is awesome. Or a FOC weapons pack. I love armoring my figures up with nice looking weapons.

Tue Jul 23, 2013 12:27 am

Soundwave + remaining Cassetticons and Blaster + remaining Cassettbots. Specifically, those I expected from Perfect Effect for well over 3 years now.

Tue Jul 23, 2013 2:26 am

Trypticon based off the game to go with metroplex.

we have gotten a lot of the FOC guns in the single figures, but I would like to see them released in more accurate colours. Hasbro's not gonna do it, so if Dr Wu were to get a little Cybertron Armoury gift set thing going on, it'd be cool. The TFPrime artifacts and an armoured up Miko might make for a nice purchase too.

Stasis pods!!!

Also, more screen accurate guns for my Beast Wars figures.

Screen accurate deluxe Terrorsaur and Blackarachnia.

The Nemesis.

Tarantulas' little arachnoid bot drone thingies.

Rattrap's little bombs.

Ravage's Transwarp Cruiser.

A playset of decent size replicating the inside of the Axalon/Maximal base.

A playset of decent size replicating the inside of the Pedacon base (real lava not included

).

I would pay handsomely for such things.
