Alex Milne TFCon Exclusive Litho

[Kyle]

No one seemed to notice that they have Music Label Soundwave, Rumble and Frenzy in there as well? Very SWEEEEEET!!!

Well that's what happens when Hasbro happens to own all names and likenesses of Transformers! I don't think FansProject would be in a good position to try and sue Hasbro for using their own intellectual property.

FP would be anything but bitter about this!

I don't think that's the point. I think more so the fact that Hasbro is allowing a custom kit to be acknowledged in an artistic representation of their character.

Does Hasbro participate or acknowledge TFCon? Would Alex Milne need to secure rights to sell this? If so, Kyle, do you have any insight as to whether he approached FP as well?

I actually have no idea. I'll ask the guys at FP about this. This is so awesome!

Josh's colours make this a masterpiece. This is one lovely piece of art.



The City Commander armour is in there twice!

Three times! CC, SC and PC are all in there~!

Wasn't suggesting they do, was just mildly suprised about their products being in the litho. I also see the add-on kit on Lambor's sholder too at least.

Yep, I did notice them, plus Lazerbeak...? Is he in Classics/Henkei somewhere too?



Heh, heh. Loving Grimlock's elegent swan-dive

I think Laserbeak was included because there was a Hasbro reissue of G1 Soundwave with Laserbeak and Ravage in Classic style of packaging.

Yep, that would be it.

Oh yeah.... the classics style packaging would make them qualify...
Good work Kyle....

*nods* this is indeed a great compliment to them! Heck, I think any reference to fan activities from official sources is always a cool compliment, no matter how obscure.

I agree. Since the Music Label headphones are also there though along with [what I presume is Music Label] Soundblaster, which version of Soundwave is it? Commemorative Series or Music Label?

That is Music Label Soundwave. The elbows and back give it away.

Hey! Why is Jazz in there?

Legends Jazz.

Like JAaM.

Actually, after some more thought, the inclusion of the Fans Project stuff makes perfect sense as Fans Project was a major sponsor/vendor/exclusive supplier.
