These iGear people make me. They're also releasing (or have released, I don't keep track of this stuff) a Masterpiece Prime-sized Optimus Prime trailer and a crown for Masterpiece Grimlock: hmm... items that sound vaguely familiar for some reason. They're bootleggers and yet for some reason they regularly get in the newsfeed at TFW2005 and praised on the boards as if they're not the knockoff merchants they are.
They're just asking for trouble, and will get Hasbro to bring the hammer down on the actual fan kit makers.
Their products have no real creativity. And there have been rumours they were the ones who've been KO-ing the works of other fan kit makers.![]()
It is way way way too far...
This explosion of 'fan' crap is crazy even if it is an original concept it is getting less and less cool with me...
Look at the front page of robot kingdom, it is almost all that type of stuff.
I did get some addons for my MP's but it basically went right back in the box...
I think I'd rather keep my money to buy real transformers.
Come on - You must be buying it for more![]()
I want it for the whole awesome comic tribute - If it was just the crown I would only get the fan kit since I already have the original release.
Are you actually getting King Grimlock? Because if you are getting it just for the crown while aware of the fan kit then the existence of the kit doesn't affect your purchase to TakTom at all.
What? We are talking about buying custom accessories in regards to the Grimlock crown not full complete figures as well as an expensive release that came out without said accessory despite prototype pics.
Your G1 Prowl comparison is apple and oranges unless you mean it to be a parallel with this Mini MP Prime rather than MP Grimlock. Also Prowl and Bluestreak are two separate characters.

Chill guys.
I agree with kup that I would not buy the whole expensive toy again only for the crown.
Maybe "nobody in their right mind" is too strong... but then again I don't consider myself sane.
For this particular toy, I would not buy it for the new paint job or new packaging either... I AM going to buy it just because I am a MP series completist...![]()
