FansProject: Retro-Future

[SuspectimusPrime]

Just came across these via UpgradeCommander. Nothing new for those that have been actively following third party updates (if you are new, the links also contain video reviews ). First 3 releases now available.

FansProject Glacialord TAILCLUB = 4,999 YEN

FansProject Glacialord FANGRO = 4,999 YEN

FansProject Glacialord TUSKER = 11,999 YEN

So far looks like the whole set will be about $340ish + $50ish for shipping.

I really like FP stuff, however do not actually collect - so do not know where these guys would sit in my collection.

It is very nice however I think Tuskor is a bit too blocky (even for G1).

[CBratron]

Not my cup of tea.

Do they have a healthy stock? or is it like a number of other retailers that have had those 3 since TFcon this year as they were available in extremely limited quantities?

Those member prices are sweet. I'd be expecting Tusker to be $75-80 at those ratios against Upgrade Commander's price pointing.

Looks like it's going to be $200 for the full set, but then unfortunately shipping may cost $100 (1/3 of total cost ).

I really want these figures but I'm just not willing to pay $50 for postage of the pair, I'm going to hold out until the other members are put up & hope that stock remains until then.

Might be a bit of a stretch, but if postage was to remain as $50 for the set, it'd be fantastic. Currently their shipping option only allows $50 for 1-3? At $100 for 5, that's $20 each which is almost ordering each one at a time.
