Maketoys like FP produce one of the best 3P Transformers interpretations...
their attention to detail differentiates their products from the other 3P.
I'm looking forward to this... although in saying that, my wallet won't! :p
wow this is going to be great! :)
Poor TFC :p
This is great news. Will bring variation to the table and promote competitive pricing!
Hehe! - You're not wrong! :pQuote:

Oh whoops, I obviously must have done something wrong. He looks pretty cool though. I'm in!Quote:

I'm just going off of what I'm being presented with:Quote:

Yeah man I screwed that one up but ah well luckily Everyone else's pics are showing.Quote:

most likely. there aren't even preorders for computron and we're pretty much halfway thru the year.Quote:

Yes please!Quote:

And still no Terrorcons ... :rolleyes:
:p
And that's optimistic at best, given Computron was announced yonks ago before that. :)Quote:

The eventual Seacons, Terrorcons & Monstructor will be worth the wait I reckon, if MakeToys and FansProject's previous efforts are any indicator ;) - That wait IS painful however. :oQuote:

I will be getting this Defensor as I would only get the TFC one if there was no other alternative. Makes me wonder whether I should get Uranos or will Maketoys or FP make a version? We need another Bruticus as well I reckon.
With Bruticus, I really hope the masterpiece line beats any more 3rd parties to the punch. There are enough 3rd party combiners out now, to really push an official release.They, the designers of the masterpiece line have mentioned in an interview of a desire to do more decepticons. So I'll be happy to wait.Quote:

It would be slightly bigger than MMC and TFC combiners. I held up MP Red Alert as that would be my preferred alt mode for him and its a bit longer than Tantrum/Headstrong.Quote:

More Guardia pics from TFCon I found on NTF-Archive.de It's mostly Quantron pics but I found the Guardia stuff quite interesting.

If they ever figure out how to produce the ir own official version of the conehead seekers using the old mould of MP 11 then they'd have more seekers already - 3 of em. in fact with just a small retool for each. Which I'll be all over POing...:D:DQuote:

Lovin Groove's alt-mode :cool:
just beautiful. maketoys combiners are just wow!
Looks alright overall, but those "tennis racket" snow shoes he's rockin for feet aren't very appealing.
wow he looks awsome!
Very awesome... First Quantron, now Guardia...
Not really feeling it but can't quite pinpoint why. Changing Streetwise's alt mode into a muscle car (while the rest still seem faithful) bothers me but it can't be just that.
