Hey guys. four sotires to cover today so lets get crackin.

Ok so third party company Igear released a mini masterpiece optimus prime a few years back whihc they named Faith Leader for copyright issues, form what i saw it was nice looking a pretty affordable for a third party figure (we're talking Warbot Defender prices. Now htird parties like fansproject have been innovating alot these past few years so everyone expected somethign new from Igear. and guess what, they didnt innovate theyre simple repainting the Faith Leader into Ultra Magnus and shattered Glass Prime. Innovation fail. While these figures do look nice, theyre absurdly overpriced at $110 and $120 respectively. so yea pass.

Secondly, apparently theyre flimign the space shuttle Discovery for TF3. MovieVerse Sky-Lynx anyone?????????

Thirdly, remeber that challenege at cybertron 3 pack that was an Eastern Market exclusive and a prize at AA2010? well they've scrapped the Galvatron toy and marketing the cartoon accruate Cyclonus and Hot Rod in a 2 pack called "Battle in space" and they come wiht a mini matrix of leadership. I'm honestly really tempted to get this, mainly just for the cyclonus (so i'd have a representation of "and his armada") and the matrix. that way, if i get the protector armor for the holidays i can have the matrix ina display that looks like hot rod become Rodimus Prime. I plan on using the armor on ,my classics hot rod so yea. only problem with the 2 pack is the pre-order is like $25 on bigbad pre-shippinig whcihc seems a bit much to me for 2 deluxes. and the 2pack sint due out until december.

Lastly, Japanese third party company Jizai toys is apparently making a full on figure named Moonracer. Looks pretty nifty. check out the tfwiki for info on this obcure female transformer. I just hope the price isnt too high. I may end up naming her Chromia or soemthing. we'll see if i get here.


thats it for me. comment below.
