If this has been asked for, I apologize, but I really wanna know, and I haven't found anything anywhere else.

I think its unlikely. He's too obscure even for the Real Gear line.

You could pull all the truck parts off of Cyberton Mud Flap and paint him up with red, amber and green and put him on a stick. He is roughly the same shape :)

I'd do that if it weren't for a few problems.

1. I have no money.

2. I can't find Mudflap anywhere

I'd buy it. If it were deluxe or basic, I'd buy several.

Didnt they basically use Mudflap's transformation for him in the cartoon too?

Thats what I thought and why I suggested Mudflap.

How can he be too obscure for a line with all original characters?

The reason he'd never make the realgear line is who wants a roughly lifesize transforming traffic light?

As cool as his little sequence at the end of the show was, I doubt a toy would really sell other then to collectors and a few fans. I mean as a toy he'd have very little play value. He's a traffic light, not alot of action involved there.

And yeah from what I've read and from watching the sequence they used a modified version Mudflaps animation model to do the Signal Lancer scene.

i would totally buy signal lancer. just... i'd hope they'd put a button cell battery in it, and allow the lights to light up/change. LEDs! i normally hate electronic features, but for that one character, i'd be all for it!

I dont, traffic lights are generally eye sores... one in your bedroom = doubly so.

And what will you do with the poll when he's in robot mode? give it to him as a weapon?

Mister Rogers had a traffic light in his living room. I always wanted one. Until, that is, I realized "red light green light" wasn't quite as much fun anymore.
