    Default Can we have models by please??

    Just wondering if we can eventually have some TF models up for grabs, as nice as the cars are, screw that, I'm talkin about in robot form. That would be pretty sweet if revell released a line of them, or perhaps a japanes company with better detail as revell greatly lacks that.

    Also, I think there should be more capitolizing on merchandise. I have not seen ANY TF cloths for the film really, nore any Sam or kayla action figures. Kids would eat it up, but Bay's movies seem to fall short on producing toys, even if thats there original goal, like the "debris elimintaors"

    Any chance we will see model kits of TF in the not too distant future???

    Totally, it seems as though they are not taking advantage of what they can do with merchandise. What, we see a few piece of crap toys, that are cheap, and cant even transform well, that are farther from accurate then honey O's are to cheri O's.

    Whats up with that.

    More merchandising please.

    Toys, models, clothes... All of that fun stuff.

    I am gonna make a Bumble bee style mcfarlane thingy and hawk it off here, or some where.
    It will be about 2 feet tall.
    It will take a while to do as it is a spar time project. But It's gonna come soon. P.S. 2 of em, one for me and whoever else wants one off of ebay.

    Ya. Since there don't seem to be any chic TF cloths for the film, I've got a tattoo of Autobot insignia with flame on my chest.

    Please let me know if there is any chance you'll make Optimus model and sell it on eBay.

    Not at all a bad idea, I just got picked up to do a studio scale x-wing and tie fighter. Also directing and producing none stop. But I will go ahead and hash out an optimus as I am sure many will want him too.

    There is no reason the 2 foot deluxe replicas shouldnt be out by xmas. Maybe a lil longer.

    I will keep you guys posted on these forums of how the progress is coming along with picks and such.
    I will also post picks of the studio x wing and tie fighter.

    I want that mini bust!!!

    I hope another company gets the rights to produce and distribute full sized vinyl or resin model/statues of them.

    Hard Hero and Diamond Comics made some really awesome statues of Transformers based on G1 and the Dreamwave comics.

    If Japanese model and figure company Kotobukiya can get the rights to produce this, I would be all over it.

    After downloading, well, a bunch of reference photos, I have decided to create BB first. Also, for better detail, it will most likely stand almost 4 feet tall. Maybe more.

    Optimus will have to wait as I am very busy. Also, this BB will take ALOT of time to create as I can spend 30 minutes to an hour a day on him. I will also have the BB in his battle mode, as he looks kinda retarded with his face shield up.

    One question I must ask as I am doing research for this:
    Does BB rally look any different when he changes to the newer car? That is in Guardian robot form?

    And what were the two kinda cars used for BB-I desirve a slap for that, any advice would be a help.

    I also want to see a complete artbook.
    It was disappointing to find out that the movie guide was a book for children. It requires at least:

    -Precise pictures in front view, side view, rear view of all robots
    -Pictures of actual CG textures on the surface of CG models
    -A chart of Cybertronian runes seen on the Allspark
    -The concept design gallery

    Do you remember this bust [link]?
    It has been made into 12" one-off figure [link]. Awesome *ka-boom* details and colors!

    Oh, why is it just one-off? Make the mold, cast, and massproduce. Or else, please say that he'd sell it on eBay!
    Luckily, I got a comment from the artist.

    Sumimasen is a magic word. You can use it on every occasion. And I thought mind reading was Soundwave's favorite trick.

    Check this out.. I love it.. heh heh..

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smokescreen_(Transformers)

    Smokescreen's bio originally indicated that while he appeared calm and easy-going, he was in reality the closest thing the Autobots had to someone who thought like a Decepticon. He would cheat to win without hesitation, and often covers his true goals from even his fellow Autobots. Autobot leaders even use him as a spy amongst the ranks at times.

    Or this from Seibertron...

    Whether engaged in raging battle or friendly conversation, seldom is Smokescreen up to what he appears to be up to. More likely, an ulterior purpose exists. In combat, his job is to lead the enemy astray, to prevent him from discovering the true nature of an Autobot strategy until it is too late for the enemy to counter it. It is a job he performs with great proficiency. His duplicity carries over to his personal affairs as well. Charming and affable, it is easy for Smokescreen to use his genuine camaraderie with his fellow Autobots in order to root out their deepest concerns. And, at Optimus Prime's request, that is exactly what Smokescreen does, because Optimus feels that his role as Autobot leader creates a personal barrier between himself and his followers that he cannot overcome alone. Strangely enough, in Optimus' eyes, the most devious of the Autobots is also the most trusted.

    I second that... i was just talking to other people about the mcfarlane toy line and the detale they put into their products and that movie transformers line would be bad ass. I got most of the Dragons line and the detale is just sweet.

    WOW..that's an awesome Prime Bust Sora! I've never seen that before.

    I never bought a movie toy prime. It sucks with no chrome on it. The only ones with chrome were prizes won by some dude in a captioning contest.

    I'll wait for a masterpiece or Perfect prime......damn well better have chrome on it!!
