New images have surfaced on eBay of a prototype WST Ramjet. It is unclear who will be producing this mold and when it will be due out. The images show the robot mode as well as the alt mode. The eBay listing states "test shot", but the seller indicates that this is not the final version.

The image can be viewed here.

Looks cool! The re-emergence of WST, or just a nice individually made bootleg?

Hopefully reemergence.

Like every other TF line(with the exception of 20th Anniv. MP Prime - not the DVD one - and Classics), I'm coming back into collecting late. So far, the only WSTs I have are Optimus, Megatron & Thrust (he was available, so I bought him!)...

I'd love more...

it does look nice.

It's not Takara.
The bit of the nose that was rubber on the G1 seekers is a seperate bit of plastic to the rest of the nose. Takara's wstf seekers all have a nosecone that is one peice of plastic.

I like that RamJet is getting some love, but where is his face?

Posted: **Sat May 12, 2007 2:15 am**

Face is there in the robot mode pic, Liege, it's just super duper tiny because of it being WST. And yes, I did just say super duper tiny. Because it is.

My thoughts exactly! Though, I do like my WST Prime (the only one I have).

WHAT?!?

The WSTFs are great!

Ahh well each to their own.

Soundwave is a must, he comes with ravage, who has to be offcially the SMALLEST transformer ever made.

hmm, no i know exactly who is making this. This is the same guy whos been makign the various versions of convoy's trailer and various repaints of the seeker mold, including remolding the null rays to be more accurate to the show (he also remolded the trailer mold to make a literal scaled down version of the g2 trailer with soundbox.)

He has had i think 3 accounts since he opened up business, 2 of which he closed for some reason. These are usually those "prototype" wstfs you see on ebay like the ghost starscreams. They are very high quality and I HIGHLY reccomend this seller and his products. I've dealt with him in at least 10+ transactions and i always get the figures within 2-3 days after paying for them. Nothing but good business with this guy.

and I definetly agree with you, the wstfs are absolutely fantastic. Also makes it really interesting putting them alongside unicron, tidalwave (armada), Metroplex (both cybertron and g1), and fort max and scorponok (g1).

(But yeah these little guys are great, have at least 2 of every official released one, one sealed, one opened thats including chase figures from all 3 waves, as well as all current versions of the dinobot ones, at least 2 of each also, every single repro'ed trailer this seller has made including the g2 trailer, pepsi trailer, coke trailer, diaclone trailer, repro of the wave 1 and 2.5 trailers, clear blue prime and matching trailer, ghost starscream, ghost sunstorm, sunstorm, ghost thundercracker, and ghost skywarp, as well as the ehobby gold starscream, theres a few more that I customed myself by takign the numerous extra figures I had and mixed and matched parts to make new characters.)

And let me for one last time HIGHLY reccomend this ebay seller's service, shipping, responsiveness, and of course quality of products. Very excited tos ee he's still putting new things out, and even remolding the seeker mold to put out another seeker we haven't gotten yet. :grin:

whoops, double post.

That's really cool.

STFs make expensive and more fragile Micromasters...or are Micromasters bigger?

Yup. I particularly like his Sunstorm:

World's Smallest dudes rock, and this fella's customs rock also. I've bought a Thundercracker from him as well as a G2 Prime trailer- they're both excellent work. I've been hoping he'd do the rest of the jets eventually! Huzzah.

Between this guy, Justitoys, and the knockoff people doing dinky versions of Fort Max and combiner teams, it's as if WST never ended!

Also, I've found that Overlord is exactly the right scale to be a WST base playset. They look great all arranged on it.

How's the color on the Thundercracker? I just grabbed one of the solid-colored "G1 Editions" from another seller, but it hasn't arrived yet.

I really want his Skywarp as well.

I will not rest until G1 is completely reproduced in Micromaster size. The fake Kabaya kits are helpful as well, though I've yet to figure out how to paint them well enough to not chip during transformation....
