Impossible Toys

So I’ve heard that Impossible Toys is closing up shop. Is there any truth to this rumour? I have yet to buy any tetra-jets and I want to, should I do this now? I know their stuff has been a bit simple compared to other third party companies but they are just about the only company where I put the toys directly on my G1 shelf, so I have a soft spot for them. Anyway, if anyone knows anything I’m curious what happened.

Re: Impossible Toys

after talking with a guy at tfcon,they are actually closing down,just too many bigger fish in the water in the 3rd party side(a shame cause they did some awesome shiz)but if you're looking still to purchase the tetrajets,pm fellow member "stepper" as he was the one selling them at the show(he even gave me some smoking deals on some quintessons and the exosuits) and he may be able to give you the more in depth reasoning behind them shutting their doors.

Re: Impossible Toys

BBTS and TFSource also have the Tetrajets in stock, and I guess Automaton will receive their shipment soon.

Re: Impossible Toys

Too bad. I liked their G1 stuff. Still want to get an Allicon and maybe some more Quintessons

Re: Impossible Toys

I bought all the Quints I could find, along with the Alicon, and the little Spike and Sparkplug Diaclone drivers.

I love them! And I agree with the OP, they went right on to my various G1 shelves.

As far as I'm concerned Impossible Toys made the figures that we always wanted back in the 80's, but never got.

And as you can see from my sig, I want their Arcee!

Thanks for that, the link has a thorough explanation. I guess I will order a tetra-jet or two. I think their mistake though was in producing too many non transforming toys and in producing too many tetra-jets at once (7 different ones).

Re: Impossible Toys

The company probably will close then revive with a different shell, after all all the designer are still there, and for sure they will still love to create some new transformers toys.
