powerglide Bomber & seaspray Hover look great, as does the RTS G2 Prime trailer \armour.

the blueprints at the bottom of the page looks interesting as well

Excellent find - whats more amazing is everyone thought it was Fansproject.

Another player, wow.... getting crowded.

Why does Powerglide look like he has a cerebral shell on his forehead, loss a customer

There you go. That makes me wrong twice. And to think just yesterday I said I'd bet vital parts of my anatomy that it was FP. Sure glad I didn't.

G1 accuracy?

I don't know, while these guys are no classics I find these Minibots kinda appealing in a nostalgic way.

lol good thing you didn't otherwise - *snip* *snip*

I always suspected that they weren't FP's despite the strong claims that they were. The sculpt designs are way too different to the stuff we have typically seen from FP.

Whilst I feel a little vindicated, the more important thing is that these are quite good for a new player and they have already given iGear a swift kick in their stolen mold for testicles.

I don't know about the Minibots... if they're in scale with Windcharger, then maybe, but that G2 Prime upgrade and the design work for 'Giant look very appealing indeed.

those minibots are pretty cute and nifty. I'd consider getting them on their own merit even if they don't scale with other toys.

Nice! powerglide looks nicer with colour, then as prototype.

I'm still on the fence about the g2 prime armor, one one hand he looks disgustingly awesome fully bulked up with all those missile pods, etc on the other hand, I don't need it....

ANd wait... is that a pic of a devastator... that is g1 styled.. are they releasing a better devy than TFC?
