Hi.
It's, well, quite some time before the next TFCon, surprisingly enough - but when it comes to organising some elements of it, perhaps it's never too soon to ask.
Well, that's my excuse, anyway!
What I wanted to ask was whether or not it was ok for those of us who may or may not have requests regarding what, if any, exclusive figure might be considered for TFCon 2010 - or indeed if x or y idea was plausible in the first place.
For my part, I had two requests, both related to upcoming FansProject... well... projects, and laced with the assumption (or, well, hope really) that either could be made ready by next April.
One request was for consideration to be given for a goatee-packing
Shattered Glass re-deco of the upcoming
Protector set - in a similar black-and-purple scheme that the
evil Rodimus has (and that the
Gentei Wildrider isn't too far off from having) - and perhaps called something suitably opposite to its 'normal' name...
...like, say,
Despoiler.
However, I appreciate that such a kit might depend on having a dark-coloured Rodimus re-deco, but there are those who have put other coloured cabs into various Commander trailer sets.
(Indeed, would Hasbro be willing to do a second run of SG Rodimus figures to match, or would the BotCon organisers nix that idea?)
That said, if this option wasn't viable for TFCon, perhaps another upcoming FP figure could be so altered.
If the
Defender (Springer) figure is ready in time, could a SG-esque '
Invader' version, perhaps in Astrotrain or Blitzwing's colour scheme, be an option instead?
Or do you have a better idea?
