The 3rd party acquisitions thread!

[Tallestblue]

I got Function-X Code with a lot of stuff from BBTS.

he's an interesting departure from Fansproject's usal style, but he meshes with CHUG really well. he's also the reason I've pre-ordered Toyworld's Hardbone.

After reading the numerous reviews here I decided to get some 3rd party figures:


Loved Hegemon even more once the orange tip was removed, yet to open Assaulter yet, but he is one sturdy figure, much meatier than Hegemon.

Also got some nice shiny stickers and a "fansporoject 2012" grey sprue with a series of tiny cars, bikes and cybertronian vehicles that look like they belong to another set. Anyone have any idea as to whom?

They're supposed to represent the other Fansproject warbots on a small scale for Assualter's carrier mode. The helicopter/Car is Defender and the truck/trailer is Steelcore. I don't know who the motorcycles are, presumably unreleased/unmade characters.

Ah, that makes sense, thanks!

Now I'll have to get some good coloured pics and try to paint the tiny buggers. Not tiny Crosshairs, not tiny Whirl, not tiny Chromedome, not tiny Brainstorm, not tiny Animated Wreck-gar and two unnamed bikes as well as maybe not tiny Hound....

With my terrible painting skills and nothing to hold the miniature models, this will not end well...

Alt mode pic please, VERT when you can. So far Ive only always seen this in the Bot mode, curious to see what the altmode looks.

That is one big brute of a figure & one helluva nice box too actually , how do you find him man? - How's the plastic quality, joints, paint apps etc?

I could have saved some money & bought Broadside 2 or 3 months ago... but no, I only decided that I wanted him just now & I ended up paying ebay prices for him...

So... Who's the idiot?

Awesome! Let us know what you think of them. It is always good to hear the perspective of a new person getting into 3rd parties.

I'm really loving Hegemon and I am so jealous. I'll probably order him in a few weeks, once I actually have the money.
