Rad Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 Wow. Where did you get those? I'm guessing they're very sweet customised Emerald City blanks. Either that or some kind of promo thing that DST/AA were chucking at Hasbro to try and get the mini licences for those properties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBT! Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 I know the answer to this and am curious where you got them from... they aren't official. I'll shoot you a PM BHM. T. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiniFiend UK Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 The base figures are emerald city blanks going by the colour I recognise them as I have some. But other then that no idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fujis Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 Nervous modified a couple of ECCC blanks with a Cobra symbol and a decepticon symbol, is that what we're taking about? IIRC he brought them to one of the SDCC's along with some custom Joes and showed them to the AA guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SillyGooserTC Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 There were only 25 of these sets produced. 2 of them leaked out as you can see one of the sets went to the UK. I'm keeping 3 for myself, and the remaining 20 are now available for purchase via eBay. If you want one just click the link in the bottom left hand corner. All proceeds are going towards my trip to San Diego. More info in my new topic post about these sets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are correct sir! they really are pretty slick looking in person, hope you guys dig them, it was a pretty heavy load making 100 customs at once...I don't think I will be trying it again truly a labor of love I was wondering when these little dudes were gonna show up. the one thing I'd like to point out. I never sprayed them with any sealer, because I only had the matte finish at the time, and didn't want to dull them out, they should be fine if unless you guys are really going to be handling them alot, but if you are gonna "play" with them, I'd suggest a glossier finish like the crystal coat(i think its what it is called) from michael's.

Cappy Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 (edited) So, can some one enlighten me as to what the two Transformer symbols are? I received my order from Jaycen and these guys rock! These are not basic decal customs, but look like honest tampos. Nice work, Josh. Edited August 16, 2008 by Cappy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 So, can some one enlighten me as to what the two Transformer symbols are? The white one is the "Autobot," or "good guy," symbol. The blue one is the "Decepticon," or "bad guy" symbol. In other words, the good guys transform into cars, the bad guys transform into mischievous liars. Why not "Honestbots"?

Cappy Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 Thank you, sir! Now my toy knowledge is just a little bit broader. See, it's good to learn something new every day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
