A Few Questions About Rodimus Add On Kit

I just got the Fansproject Protector (Rodimus Prime add on) and have a couple questions for you guys.

1. I have this weird little piece left over. It kinda looks like a open fist when you look at it on way it is black with a peg in one end and if you roll it over there looks like another open fist, but in white it a slightly different peg size. Any ideas??

2. Inside the back cover of the comic/instructions there is a mostly blacked out figure pictured. I assume this maybe a clue as to the next Fansproject project??

3. In the comic story when Prime is going over the qualities that make a leader, I think you can see reference to Springer, Arcee, Ultra Magnus, Junkions and maybe Kup. Has there been any talk about Fansproject doing something for Arcee, Kup or the Junkions??

I don't have mine yet, but I can tell you that from the reviews I've seen the hand is so that Protector can shake hands with the Voyager Prime.

That piece allows you to recreate the "handshake" scence from the pack-in comic/instructions between not-Rodimus Prime and voyager class Classics Optimus Prime / Henkei Optimus Prime.

1. ^What they said.

3. If you follow the link in the above picture, you'll see FansProject was planning on producing their own Wreck-Gar/Junkion figure(s), but what with Hasbro now making their own, it seems unlikely they will produce it. Perhaps something to help fans troop-build official Junkions, like a set of alternate heads and weapons and maybe chest pieces to vary them up is the best to hope for. But I'm just speculating.

We have Generations Kup coming so I doubt FansProject would waste their time doing their own.

And as for Arcee, with the numerous other 3rd party Arcees out there and the fact that Hasbro has teased that they may be a Generations Arcee in the pipeline, again I don't think FansProject would bother doing their own.

Kind of funny how it took three posts to establish this. Not to be rude, but I find it kind of funny that no one reads each others posts!

Back on topic, I too was wondering about that picture. Thanks for showing us that, Ultraprimal.

Or, you know, two of them posted at 6:01, and one posted at 6:03, so they were probably all typing before the first answer "posted".

Thanks for the insight!
I hope they still go ahead and make their versions of the junkions, they would be additions to the ranks!
