FansProject will be reissuing their Powered Commander trailer/armor set, compatible with Classics/Henkei Optimus Prime/Convoy figures, for the Japanese market. This time around, it will feature chrome parts, to fit in with the Henkei figure.
Unlike the previous release at TFCON, this will not be limited. It will be available soon.
Thanks to 2005 boards member Red Leader of sponsor Kapow Toys for the heads up.
UPDATE: A comparison photo has been posted to the discussion thread. You can view it by clicking the thumbnail at left. The TFcon exclusive is on the right, on the left is the reissue.

Funds Projects are in Canada, So will they go back in this time machine and try to correct the lies. because I bet if any of us go into the future we will not see shit of them fixing this.

So instead of being secure with your own beliefs, you feel the need to justify your own beliefs by taking the position "Everyone harms everyone, and since it can't be helped it is never wrong and no one should ever bother trying not to lie cheat or steal from each other."
Watching Wall-e supports drug addicted teens make porn eh? That's a new one… And people said KO's supporting terrorisim was a stretch.

And if the company takes steps to make up for the mistake? What then?
You're coming across like FansProject deserve to go out of business for this. Bigger companies have made bigger mistakes, and they've survived.

We should trade one of our many stargates for that

We all know Canada has time machines. They should have seen it coming. Duh…

How is it that TFCon is responsible for these sets selling for twice the original price?….
I blame the price jump on the laws of supply and demand….but please indulge us with your reasoning.

I blame TFCon.

Indeed, its is a living for them and TFCON has already made their money and FP is has made their money and are making more. Whats the problem? Its not like people are trying to return their TFCON armor sets to TFCON and getting their money back. If anything they are selling their sets on the second hand market which would have happened anyway.

Okay here is the thing though, we all buy toys made in china, which choke this planet and contaminate it with fire ******ant chemicals. Think of all the waste in a TF package, thats an environmental no no…. Even our own little hobby has major repercussions that effect everyone globally, not just this little fandom.
You can't open that can of worms about man harming his fellow man and holding yourself above that without being a little bit hypocritical. Are you not going to watch porn since its exploits the innocent and naive youth, or not see the next big Disney Pixar Movie since they own 90% of the adult entertainment industry ( and is an evil Conglomerate).

2. a person who feigns some desirable or publicly approved attitude, esp. one whose private life, opinions, or statements belie his or her public statements.
I did go to Tfcon, a day long trip, spent hundreds on travel and lodging, just for the PC since I thought it was an exclusive. Woke up at 5:30 so i could get in line at 7, paranoid they would sell. out. Am i mad, well yea. Is that anger at fansproject? Nope.
No offense, I love the TFCon staff ( although they did express an anti American sentiment ) I'd have to say the fault lies with them. Things should have been in writing before they advertised PC as an exclusive. And maybe I'm wrong but i doubt they didn't know about the Japanese release. That being said I'd still even go back next year since i had such a great time in Toronto.

Honestly, I don't care what you do. It's cool with me. It's the way you present yourself that I find distasteful… (holier than thou is a figure of speech and you don't have to be religious to be such)… in such a way that you come off as if you are superior for your position and have taken a moral high ground (especially when morality is a very subjective thing) and, regardless of your beliefs (which I honestly couldn't care less about), I find anyone who puts themselves on such a pedestal to be rather arrogant and high on themselves.
In short… it's not your beliefs but the way you present them and yourself.

Jesus wept. Seriously. You say something, someone else says something, you say the same thing again, and then so do they. Wash, rinse, repeat for over 1000 posts.
This isn't an argument, it's a rerun.

I haven't seen anything 'holy'. None of my beliefs are religious or even claimed to be religious.
Some people are capable of not wanting to cause harm to his fellow man without the need of a higher power or religion telling him to. I wouldn't want what happened TFCON to happen to me if I was in the same situation and therefor I don't support the company that did it.
If you are fine with others being hurt as long as it does not impact you personally than why do you care if others disagree with you and with hold their business from FP and find what they did underhanded?
