Heard a rumor from a reliable anonymous source that the TFC guys are behind warbotron (or at least affiliates of TFC) The add on kit definitely seems like something TFC would do. But announcing it when only one out of five figures is out is reaching a new all time low...

To be fair some people seems to think this is a bonus and will come with one of the figures. But seems like TF Source has every intention of selling it separately as well. I'm sure they'll also include it with the figure as a bonus item if that is Warbotron's intentions.

If TFC IS behind Warbotron, they should have stuck with their normal size, then I would have bought one.

Agreed. And showing an upgrade kit before the combiner is finished is bogus.

I see it as an accessory pack more than an upgrade kit .

I think is a great idea especially releasing them this early .

Only 1 out of 5 figures have been released. It makes no sense for Warbotron to label something as an "accessory pack" when they still have 4 more chances to include it with the figures. They clearly have plans to sell it separately unless they refer to it as a "bonus" down the line.

So whats wrong with them selling this now ? if they had waited till the end everybody would shitting on complaining that they new this was going to happen :BANG_HEAD:

A weapons accessory pack is something i've heard a lot of fans ask for in this hobby , this is good for two reasons , you can equip your combaticons giving you extra playability and display options as they come out and also these don't just have to be for warbotron other transformers can use these packs .

Having to resort to buying add on kits to complete the gestalt is lame. Its bogus due to these 3rd party combiners already costing $350 to $600 to complete.

These are optional kits you don't have to buy them , How ever if it was an upgrade kit that had a chest plate and what have you then yes i would be a little pissed because as always you get sucked in to wanting the more accurate look .

I agree with Rated X. Selling this separately, whether now or after all the figures, just doesn't work with me. If they are already this far along, split up the weapons and package them in with the last three figures.

How about just throwing 1 gun in for free with each figure ? What is it, 50 cents more worth of plastic ? And its not like theyre transformable accessories that cost a ton to design. Even renderform throws in free guns with his sets. Dont tell me warbotron cant afford to...

I agree with this.
I'm not planning to get Warbotron, but I might be interested in the BFG!

Just think of it as a generic weapons pack that just happens to work well with Warbotron.

I don't see a problem with this accessory pack. It's is a nice way to arm the armies of those, like myself, not buying any of the Warbotron bots.

i gotta agree with everyone else... this add on set just looks like something that should come with the figures already. unless he has a gun... and this is just an alternative.
