I was really hoping for a Delta Magnus repaint. Oh well. Hopefully I can find another Magnus at a good price to repaint as Delta Magnus. -
Transformers Earthrise Grapple Toyhax Review, Larkin's Lair

That's correct. If you watch the video it's really about him as a create in general and not so much the Batman.?

That is too awesome! Great work!

That’s it for now as I don’t have any of the carded figures... all at least not yet? It’s a cool figure and my favorite in the line ?

MOTU Caslte Greyskull He-Man Prime Custom Has the POWER!!!
Larkin Vain replied to BaCon's topic in News
Man that is awesome! Love these mash up customs. -
Just finished listening. I'm okay with knock offs, Technically a knock off is an imitation product so 3rd party figures like Fans Toys are technically knock offs (imitation of Transformers). Now the quality of knock offs vary by manufacturers. Outside of toys lots of products are knocked off (for example spin mops, hand bags, coolers, USB cables, etc.) The issue I have are counterfeits that are sold as original and that's where the law usually comes in. If you are referring to your products as Optimus Prime or Unicron (names that are trademarked with an official product) then there's an issue. We are basically buying imitation Transformers, which I'm okay with. "3rd party" is catering to a market that Hasbro really has no desire to be in. If you look at their investor slides they clearly state the market for their generations line start at 10 years old. at the end of the day the War for Cybertron and Cyberverse Deluxe figures are still toy make for children 10 years and up which 40 year olds like me happen to collect. Third party however, their target market is clearly adults with disposable income and not 10 year old children. There are over 4700 Walmarts, almost 2000 Targets and almost 10,000 Walgreens in the US. Throw in Amazon and those sales is what makes Hasbro a $5 billion. If shops like BigbadToyStore, TFSource, etc. ceased to exist I don't think it would make a dent in Hasbro's bottom line. Also disagree about Hasbro knocking off Takara, as they were partners when it came to Transformers same as Power Rangers and Super Sentai. That's it for now:) Keep up the awesome work.

Same here, being that the mold from the G1 era I’m a bit more forgiving? I really hope we get a Skyquake, Thunderclash or any of the predators, turbomasters and obliterstors in the generations line one day.
