I am 1000% in on H.T.B.\'s G.I. Joe Transformers crossovers! Hands down, no questions asked…bring \'em on! And of course everything Iron Factory!

I\'m a little disappointed Magic Square didn\'t show up. I was really hoping to see some future legends goodness.

MMC's Stray mold (and remolds) has been used a lot. I got Saltus recently and like him a lot. How does Stray compare?

Search for posts by @griffith76 in the old Feral Rex thread. He shared some insights on the production process across several posts. Granted it's a few years old, but a lot of it likely still applies today.

I really hope MMC will bring Pyro. The only Wrecker without somehow decent representation in plastic form.
SofosXIII
i dont know if this has been asked before, but have you considered doing a mini doc on the design process of a transforming toy? like from concept to prototype to production. from what i can find, none has ever been done

We have a Getaway remold from Calidus in the works that's been teased before. Don't know what's keeping it.
Rung I can't say anything about, take that how you will.
Duskscream
Hello,
Are there any plans for Rung or Getaway?

Personally I CANNOT WAIT for Lightning Eagle. Ever since I first laid eyes on Thunderclash in one of Thew\'s reviews, I loved him. I wanted him. In fact, he\'s one of my holy grails and I\'m hunting down a complete one. Plus, I\'ve always wanted a new figure of the G1 character. Not the retool of Energon Rodimus, not the MMC IDW Thunderclash, G1 Thunderclash, trailer and all. I\'ve been following the development of Lightning Eagle since it was first announced, and I fully intend to follow through with a purchase of this guy. I *love* it.
THE-TRANSFORMER
It's been a long wait for that Guzzle.
Still looking forward to Beachcomber and the other 86 minibots.
The REmix tapes look great. I think I'm going to cave and complete the Con set then grab these…
kaszal
I and many others would love IDW style Ratchet and Chromedome… after Fort Max of course.
I only own one MMC figure, Saltus, and very happy with him!

New fembots (especially Nautica!) is something we definitely want to do. Unfortunately, it's on a list of a LOT of stuff we want to do, and we have only so many designers/engineers to tackle it all. Having a number of big bots coming up probably doesn't help either since those tend to gobble up a lot of resources and not sell very well. Which is also why we're going to be scaling back a bit on those after we have released the ones already in the pipeline, and focusing on more manageable/affordable characters after. Like Chromedome and maybe Ratchet. Among others.
