FansProject: Retro-Future

[Hursticon]

Ah! - ok, I guess that shows that I've never looked at a G1 combiner's instruction sheet then does it, hehe...

Yeah man, no two-ways about it - There is definitely more to this set than...

Announcing Fans Project Glacialord Pre-order #2

Fans Project Glacialord
When Fans Project conceived the idea of Glacialord, there was only one thing in mind – provide fans with more than just a toy. The goal was to create the nostalgic experience of collecting in a different era for long time collectors as well as new prospective collectors. As long-time collectors ourselves, we understand better than anyone else that one of the most rewarding and satisfying feelings as collectors is finally completing your hunt after embarking on a far and wide search. With that in mind, Glacialord by Fans Project received much support and interest along with many positive reviews. We’re delighted that everyone who supported this concept early is happy with their Glacialord combiner. It was fun and exciting to read and be a part of some of the stories that the fans shared with us. As a result of Glacialord's success in bringing back happy memories, we would like to offer everyone who missed out or second-guessed themselves on our first pre-orders, a chance to own the full set again.

The second pre-order of Glacialord will be open Sunday March 2nd, 2014 at 2:00 PM CST. There will be two sets available for pre-order: The first two limb releases Fangro and Tailclub will be sold as a set of two, and Glacialord as a complete set of five (Fangro, Tailclub, Tusker, Razorspike and Megazero). We will not be selling individual pieces on this pre-order.


Pricing will be as follows:

Glacialord Fangro & Tailclub Set of 2 - $79.99 USD
Glacialord Complete Set of 5 - $219.99 USD

Special Flat Rate Shipping available within the US and Canada! You can purchase either set for 1 low flat rate... Just $12.99 USD within the US and $17.99 USD within Canada. International Flat Rates will be $49.99 USD. Orders will be limited to 1 set per member and we reserve the right to cancel any orders that do not comply with this policy.

Glacialord Complete Set of 5 - $219.99 USD

Just read their mailout - love the retro poster; the complete set is very tempting

I don't like the kid's pose. It wrecks the vintage ad feel of the poster and more in the realm of 'Look at my kid!' amateurism.

He should have been shown playing with Glacial lord instead.

Sigh...

As much as I adore this set of figures, I simply cannot justify the $302.57 required to own them - Looks like I'll forever have to enjoy them vicariously.

The Hasbro instructions had all the modes except for Hun-Gurrr's one-armed bandit mode - in fact instructions are pretty much the only place most of the modes are even referenced. Hardreturn at TFW2005 has worked out that Tusker also connects to Metroplex!

This is a really neat touch, I'm not getting these, the aesthetic doesn't really appeal enough and similar reasons to Hursty but I like the concept and I'm happy it's going well for FP.

Got an email this morning saying these were posted then 10 min later they arrived







Really loving these guys. Is it worth the price? Probably not but there is a real charm about them
