I wholeheartedly endorse this statement.

I'm all in!

It'd be nice... but how keep it scramble-city, or go all out and make a sixth Constructicon?

Ohhh....too pricey, and at the moment I'm not getting Classics stuff....it'd be cheaper to find a usable mold and build a Swindle and Blast Off....

That'd be awesome to have a sixth Constructicon with him turning into the parts (chest, feet, hands, etc.).

I'm not a Classics/Universe/Generations kinda guy. I told myself I don't consider these to be Classics items, and it worked. I've been able to buy them (and only the ones I want and/or need) without buyer's remorse and I've enjoyed them.

Neo-G1, thanks to FansProject, puts a handful of molds far above the Hasbro/TakaraTomy brethren.

It's like they're not even a part of the same toyline. They become so different.

I didn't realise it was going to be four separate sets, I was thinking two. How much will it cost to get all four?

Er...I think you might've gotten some bad info here.

Your initial thought was the correct one. There are only one set each to Munitioner and Explorer. (Two total.)

Both come with a fully functional, transforming robot.
Both come with an assortment of accessories that go with all of the figures (both Munitioner and Explorer, plus Onslaught and the other two remaining Combaticons.)

Their boxes stack to create special artwork.

There's only two sets to buy, one of Munitioner and his accessories, and one of Explorer and his.

$100.00 plus shipping. That's all there is to it.

They will work with pre-existing Bruticus toys, whether they're the Energon originals, or the ROTF repaints, or the Universe 2.0 set. All work the same.

Hope this helps.

Well, let's not forget about the eventual repaints...so it's possible that there will eventually be four sets. Which I'm really really hoping that they do repaint these guys. I want a set to display in their individual Bot modes. I mean I still have 2 other limb pieces that aren't gonna be used and an extra Energon Barricade!

Sorry but I'm pretty sure FP already said they won't be doing a Devastator because of the Crazy Devy sets. Probably so as not to cut into their profits.

I think they may be talking about constructicon maximus AKA Energon Devestator not G1 devestator.

Oh, I'd always considered Classics as Neo G1....which is what I meant by I'm not getting classics yet.
Problem is, I'm getting Movie and not only are these reeeeally pricey(fifty bucks for a roughly deluxe class figure I think) they just don't fit in.

Thanks! Something about this thread confused me. It costs about what I thought it would cost originally.

That IS what I was talking about.
I know it's silly. But I could swear someone already asked them about an Universe/Energon Devastator upgrade set. And that was pretty much their response.

There's a good chance I read that on some other site though.

Nope, you are correct. I read that over at TFW awhile ago as well. It's kind of a 3rd party respect thing. I dig it. That's why my CD will be in me NEO G1 and I have since put Clssc Devy away.

I know exactly where this photo was taken, and the shop it's in! It's only up for display though. It looks really nice in person.

Additional pics?

And my pre-order on bbts has changed to August...

^ WTF are you serious? Maybe I should go into the shop where these were taken and find out if they're getting it sooner...

The shop doesn't allow pictures. Whomever took the ones on that page must've done it when they weren't looking.

I, too, can confirm that the BBTS date has been pushed back too August.

I'm guessing BBTS is expecting surface shipping to take well over a month and then some.

These are due to leave FP's hands at the end of this month, to begin their trek to the US and other retailers. BBTS was the first to say August.

I do know that ToyArena uses Airmail and sometime EMS to get their shipments, so they might have 'em a lot sooner than August. Who knows?

If they do get them in sooner, I might switch to ToyArena. I have the money set aside for these guys and I need to get them bought and paid for, before the money gets used for something else.

I saw last night the date was changed to August and my heart sank a little. I don't have the money anyways but I would figure it out if they arrived sooner, it is getting harder and harder to wait for these guys.
