I think the problem is that I remember Impossible Toys Quintessons being announced a long time ago. They weren't maybe as good looking as the official toys of the time, but there wasn't a whole lot of competition for 3rd party stuff. Nowadays, we've got TFC, Maketoys, iGear and of course Fans Project, all of whom are putting out stuff that is at least the equal of Hasbro, sometimes even dancing around behind the official releases making bunny ears and giving them wedgies, they're that much cooler. Impossible haven't improved, and what was acceptable 5 years ago, just isn't now, not for the same money.
I dearly want Quintessons, Shark and Alli - cons, Arblus, Kranix, the freaky little Lithonians, that dude who got fed to the Sharkticons, a dozen completely different Junkions with interchangeable parts, the weird Nightcrawler looking Decepticon who runs past a bunch of times in a loop when Unicron attacks Cybertron, the whole shebang! BUT, I'm only interested in paying for quality product, mang, choo hear what I'm sayin'?
