That says it all to me. Now 90% of my collection is official but if a well done 3rd party product (not KO) is offered to me then I will buy it without guilt or hesitation. I understand those who only buy official products & if that is their stance then fine by me.

The FP non insecticons is a great example as I don't believe that Hasbro would ever release robots that transform into insects. That is not cool now & as a kid it was never cool.
