Another new third party project has burst onto the scene, and what they have to offer seems very refreshing and promising given the current -insert character name here- “wars” going on between other companies. The outfit’s name is Mayhem Mekanics and their Kickstarter has officially gone live! While new in name, those behind the endeavor are by no means inexperienced. Most notable is probably the designer, who is best known for designing figures such as Mastermind Creations’s Feral Rex, Hexatron, the just-released Carnifex, and many more from MMC’s Reformatted line.
Mayhem Mekanics already has full color pics of their first figure (who has been seen in a few TFCon panels) from their line titled “Unrustable Ba$tards” and said figure is all kinds of post-apocalyptic killing machine awesomeness! The figure is fully transformable, highly articulated, and comes with quite the arsenal of weapons, a variety of different heads, and a smaller robot partner to ride his motorcycle mode or form his chest plate in bot mode. The Kickstarter of course has pledge tiers, so at $35, backers get the smaller figure, at $100 backers get the full figure, etc. Each tier and its respective details can be found on the Kickstarter page linked below.
If you’re already stoked or at least interested in seeing the project reach its full potential, you can support Mayhem Mekanics via their Kickstarter and give them some likes and shares on Facebook.

Might be better to convert it to an actual page.

Love to see it! My I politely ask if you can remember to please keep this thread updated as well for those of us without Facebook? Sorry, I know that adds extra work for you.

This was just to follow the early development. It will be used to show the early concepts before anything more substantial is done.

Looks like a personal page on FB.

Interested to see how this plays out. I really like the Unrustable that I got.

Just a quick update and, I guess, tease.
I am working towards the spiritual successor of Unrustable Bastards. It is still in the early phases but if you’d like to follow along;
Chaos Engines
Once there is something more substantial I will post it here and create a new thread to discuss the product.

I'd be down for those two spiritual designs, I like them both.

I caught it immediately but I wasn't sure if it was intentional.
I'm curious about the nWo version though. That could be pretty cool.

I can see it now that you point it out.
But TBH… I was thinking you were going for Cheetor

D'oh! I missed that. I thought it was trying to be Pretender Bumblebee.
But I would absolutely love to see these type of figures continue! I really loved the designs Casey had back in the day, and spiritual successors to those would definitely interest me. Please keep us posted

if the homage was missed for whatever reason, this is a Hulk Hogan homage. I also did an nWo version.

Groovy
Robogeek28
Yes please!

More like this, but better managed would be cool.

I'm really liking the skeletal themed one…
Hybrid Style
Yeah. I don’t think this one will ever be done so I can share this

Anything you can share?
TCJJ
Here's hoping it's successful. People clearly like these. Good luck.
Hybrid Style
Yeah, I have every intention of contacting some of the bigger retailers as the project develops. There are a few smaller ones as well that I’d like to speak with.
Once I have something a bit more substantial, I will most likely create a new thread for the newer IP and hopefully generate some more interest from there.
TCJJ
Perhaps. I think enough people understand that it wasn't the Mayhem Mekanics team at fault though, but it's hard to gauge interest specifically – perhaps you need to talk to some of the big retailers like BBTS and TFsource, and see what they have to say.
