Re: Maketoys Computron On The Way?

what the hell's with maketoys making (or planning to) the same combiners as TFC? are they intentionally competing against each other or something?

Yeah, this coincidence is kinda nuts. But going by the images, both teams are probably already a ways into their respective design processes, so I doubt it's a case of one-upsmanship unless they were butting heads right at the beginning.

It would be hilarious if the exact opposite were true. The teams were both thinking, "Well, the last thing we want is another case of overlap, and I'm willing to bet that the other company is going to do a more obvious choice, so let's do the crazy thing and go with Computron!" and the whole thing backfired because they had a severe case of brain-share and ended up overlapping anyway.

Interesting, was hoping for Defensor or Menasor. Silhouette looks impressive.

@Requateer that would be pretty funny.

Agreed I was never a big Comptutron fan myself. I would like to see Menasor, I need more 'Cons

Re: Maketoys Computron On The Way?

TFC hinted at the Terrorcons too, now would be a GREAT time to say "Hey everybody, we're doing them first!" that way we don't have 2 of the same combiner out at the same time again...

If Computron is being released twice, I don't really want to choose which one I buy... though, I think in terms of quality, TFC wins me right away.
