Yeah, I know. Still pretty funny though.Originally Posted by Trent
What would be even funnier is if it were revealed later on that all these 3P companies really ARE run by Hasbro in a loose fashion as a way to sell collectors items at a massive premium. Plenty of plot-holes in that one though...

It could always be a way to test out new plastics or engineering qualities while catering to the collector community to get the best opinion on those qualities.
But that's just me.

I hope MMC realise how important (to me at least) the final colour choice for their Predacons is. I'm not buying in to Superion partly due to his overly vibrant colour scheme, and chose Giant over Herc partly based on the more accurate shade of green and purple. Colour provides a very strong nostalgic link to the original toys and does a lot of the work selling the homage.

Honestly the original colour scheme for this guy is good enough, however more orange would be even better, either way though It looks pretty cool.

2013 has proven to be a pretty tough year for us in the MMC Team with the sudden loss of one of our most important resellers and the rise of two formidable contenders for the same character in the Feral Rex Project.
We deeply regret that we have to announce the termination of the project due to the poor feedback on what we have released so far and the results from the preorders that we've put up over that past few months are.. well... disappointing.
We would still like to thank a couple of special members from the TFW2005 community, namely Transbot90210, hardreturn, exomega255, David Hingtgen, Transformed, Jigga, SCPrime, Trailbreaker77, daimchoc, eriku, Jehsee, Torque, RRavage, jonplumlee, Darcemeus, TENIME_art and many others more [like Astronut] for their support, contributions, digibashes, suggestions and erm.... constructive criticisms towards our designs, products and especially for this particular project.
It had been a fun ride and it was a really sad decision that we had to make to end this, but here's some good news for all those who have already preordered either Talon or Bovis from our resellers!
We are please to announce the KNIGHT MORPHER REX COMMANDER as a replacement figure and it will be ready to ship very very soon!!
A note to those who have ordered both Talon and Bovis. You lucky guys will be getting TWO Rex Commanders!!! (or FOUR if you have ordered two sets of the original Rex members!!!) Happy days!

No fricken way! They were looking so damned good too. Geez that's a real kick in the nuts. Most people weren't going to order anyway until they saw final pics - hence the sparse pre-orders.
This has got to be an April Fools prank

Depends on when it was announced.

Looks like that second pic is still part of the 'fun'.
