Me too! They'll make Stepper/Riccochet for sure.
They could totally do Hotspot from Inferno/Grapple as well but that one's a little less likely.

I think you mean Artfire or maybe even Load Hauler

I did actually mean Hotspot from the Protectobots. He would be the best choice for a repaint from this mold.

They've already done G1 combiner members like Strafe, Onslaught, Wildrider and Dragstrip and Hotspot would be a good choice if they wanted to use the Inferon/Grapple mold again.

I hadn't actually heard of load hauler or artfire until I checked your links. I wouldn't bother with artfire as I don't like his paint job, load hauler looks ok but think I would pass as I just don't have space for anything other than my favourite G1 characters/characters that were important.

me too man.thats why I have purchased an Autobot and Decepticon sticker sheet with all shapes of sizes of symbols on there

should keep me covered

[Michael Alex Kawa]

Cool ,i sould do the same.Great idea.

Stick a new head on Wreck Gars body huh ???

If you catch a still frame of the planet of junk, there are plenty of head molds to copy. Would be nice if a 3rd party company could just make a "Junkion head set" that way yoou can buy 3 cheap Wreck Gars and attach the heads. The could also make clip on body armor and weapons and shields to make them look different. Now that would be worth the money rather than a repaint.

That's a pretty good idea actually.

Sounds like a perfect job for Headrobots.

[Jazz-1982]

Now if headrobots could just make a G1 head for poor old Generations Blurr to replace that monstrosity he had on his shoulders at the moment..........

Agreed, that could potentially be really cool.

I'm not interested in the Autobot pack anymore. Blue Rodimus isn't one I want, I'd rather have a clean version of Kup and I can do without the Junkion warrior.

I might be tempted by the Decepticon set but these are pretty pricey! $100 including shipping and that's just for those of us who live in Japan.

[El Duque]

Out of all of that I'm really only interested in the Junkion. Wonder if Hasbro will be releasing a Junkion remold of Wreck-gar?

[Galvatrondestroyer]

so we get three molds that have been reissued quite a bit in clear plastic, one new figure in clear plastic, battle damaged kup and a head remold of Wreck Gar to make a junkion? the remold seems like win dunno bout the other 5

[Mkall]

Can't say I'm too thrilled with them, but I'll snatch them up anyways.

[Optimutt]

I'm far less enthusiastic about this set now. At first sight, if Rod, Kup and Junk were killer-Henkei colored, they'd be BOL (bought online), but now...? They just don't interest me any more. Can't stand "Battle Damage" toys. What are all your takes on Battle Damage?

[kirbenvost]

I hate battle damage, unless it's barely noticeable like on 20th Prime.

Blech, pass on these for sure. Not only do I dislike battle damage, I'm also not a fan of clear figures. Junkion is the only one that sounds interesting, and chances are we'll get the remold down the line with Hasbro anyway.

[Axalon_Prime]

Sounds to me like the purple clear for the Decepticon set is trying to recreate the part in the movie where Unicron reformats the Decepticons into Galvatron, Scourge, and Cyclonus. Basically, they will be clear purple with the grid lines kind of like that chase Megatron figure From that PVC set a few years ago.

[Jazz-1982]

I just got a new email from E-Hobby stating that there is already a delay in when the ordering period will be for these sets.

http://e-hobby.co.jp/ehobby2010/

That clear purple plastic will have to look pretty darn cool for me to part with 8,000 yen.

[Sodan-1]

Everyone is presuming that Kup is Battle damaged. The description only says Damaged. It might only be versions of the United figure that have been dropped on the factory floor, lol.

Double pass on these, as I share the sentiments of the majority on here. Most of the versions I get, but why clear blue Rodimus?

[Jazz-1982]

I'm pretty sure in one episode of the animated series that he turned blue, just for one scene or something.

A wasted opportunity. I'm sorry but he would have looked super cool in movie accurate colours (pink, orange, yellow and grey).

The Decepticon pack could be cool if it's done right but I'd have to love it for that price.

[The Legend]

A second blue Hot Rod. Enough to warrant a blue Protector upgrade?

[Jazz-1982]

For sure, good call. They should totally release it at Botcon or as an exclusive at a TF event like I think they did with DIA Commande.r

[craggy]

the purple cons sound like they could be kinda cool. I too am expecting a Unicron-Reformatting theme there.
blue Rodimus doesn't bother me one way or the other, the Junkion will hopefully be released separately (or a 3rd party company will do a bunch of add-ons in a set, a few new heads some armour and weapons?) but Damaged Kup? could be more in line with the cartoon/movie colouring. He was always a bit dinged up on screen. That'd be nice.

[rpetras]

I find myself interested in the Autobot pack.

I always see Kup as old and rusty, so the "battle damage" may be appropriate.

Depending on how they do it, a blue Roddy may work well in the Shadow FP armor (assuming I can get that)

And a Junkion with a remold from Wreck-Gar would be great! They can get a lot of remolding/repainting from this guy to make many variants, and I'd be on them.

Buying this will depend very much on the final products and the impending wallet pain.

[Optimum Supreme]

Double pass on these, as I share the sentiments of the majority on here. Most of the versions I get, but why clear blue Rodimus?

Just a guess, maybe to simulate the blue light coming out of the Matrix when he opened it to destroy Unicron?

[Court Jester]

Too much Rodimus already. Really glad FansProject is releasing just two add ons for the classics mold. It's redundant to the point of lunacy, now. Is there any way we'll get a continuation of the Transformers with brand new characters, or is it gonna be Optimus Prime for another 25-30 years? www.move_the_hell_on.org

Here's an idea... how about a couple of new factions? You can come back to Autobots and Decepticons whenever you want. How about a new cyber world? In other words - tell us about the Gobots, Hasbro!
