Via Mech Fans Toys Weibo we have our first look at the gray prototype of their Chivalrouser (G1 Chromedome) Prototype.
This another new release for the popular Legends scaled market. Mech Fans Toys is bringing us a very detailed G1 Chromedome. The image shows us the robot mode (which includes 2 guns) and the alt mode which looks very cartoon-accurate for a figure of this size. While it is not shown, we should expect a Headmaster gimmick too.
We still don’t have price or release at the moment, but you can click on the bar to check out the promotional image after the jump. After that, you can chime in your impressions on the 2005 Boards!

Yeah sorry, not his more famous quote.
At this point, anyone really, as long as it's not way expensive
lilcarus
which one are you trying to pick up? the white thighs or the black?
Hougangkid
Is that an Archer reference? Had to Google that.

I just want a reissue of Overlord… It's been almost two years it was announced and still nothing
It's obviously a Tackleneck… a Tactic turtleneck

Unfortunately, the Jinbao seekers didn't have the coneheads and rainmakers like the MFT did.

Definitely outdated now, though the Conehead version of this mold looks better – looking forward to MFT's upcoming Evangelion decos of the Conehead trio.
I wish Jinbao would make more 3-packs with alt decos, I would buy 'em all! In the meantime, the MFT guys will either stand in the background where nobody can notice their goofy turtlenecks, or hang out in Jet Mode.

Same as both of you, it's easily my most desired of their large sets between their recent Seeker reissues and their Dinobot reissues. If those are still considered desirable enough to reissue, surely the figures covering a pretty noticeable gap in the 3P Legends space should be worth getting back out there, right?
Destron1
Yeah, same. Contacted them a few weeks back and they said they haven't heard from them yet.
Sandstormer
Whither Rubbish? In the bin?

On another note, I'm really hoping MFT doesn't cancel their Headmaster reissue set. I've had that paid off since it was announced. ShowZ said they aren't sure what is happening with it. It was originally supposed to release January, then March, and now they don't know at all.

Obsolete now with the Jinbao ones available. These DX9 upscales were nice at the time, but can be retired now. The only nice thing about these molds is that MFT released them in other colors (rainmakers) and I don't think Jinbao ever released more than the regular trio.
Firestorm
Yeah, I went with the Jinbao Seekers instead for my collection. Didn't like the look of the MFT ones.
Hougangkid
You mean the turtlenecks?
Yeah they're so 1970's...

These are up at BBB for pre-order and they don't look good in robot mode with that base/gap under their heads:

Getting the original metallic version individually is a better deal since they came with a diaclone pilot.

The little movie figures have been great. I have Mohawk and the microscope dude, and have been meaning to pick up Wheelie but find him a little expensive at $30+ for what he is.
ph4zed
Oh yeah this stuff doesn't exist in my head lol
lilcarus
they did the lambos already. but they have their v2 set that is basically ninja-fied. but their sunstreaker actually looks pretty good since he doesn't have all that shit hanging off his hip and back like the other bots do.
**also, i absolutely hate anything legend related Wu produces. some of his little bots are ok. but when he tries to do the other stuff you can really see that he is way out of his league.
ph4zed
That dr. wu arcee was ugh… Have they put out any non-sub-legends figs since her? I'm a fan of their normal microbots, so imo, they should stay in their lane lol
Didn't IF already do the lambros? I thought they were some of the super early ones released.
