Because we don't have enough Transformers threads down here in the toy forum...
Just kidding. Because the 3rd party transformers groups are awesome and make awesome stuff that might not necessarily fit into one or the other of the "Classics" or the "Masterpiece" threads. Now we have the Transformers 3rd Party Appreciation Thread. Ill start 'er off with some work from TFC. The first company to begin production and release what at the time many Transformers fans said couldn't be done.. a Voyager based gestalt Devestator, aka Hercules. Hercules bot modes It took awhile for their next effort to get all 5 bots out, but Superion, aka Uranos, has arrived. We are still waiting on the official release of an upgrade set "Wings of Uranos" that will replace the chest piece and supply a gestalt gun as well as more pieces for the individual bots. Superion bot modes jet modes TFC has come under heavy criticism lately for many reasons, but I for one am happy they have put these two awesome combiners out and I will keep my eye out for possible future releases from them.

I'll leave you tonight with this one. An upcoming gestalt project from an as of yet unnamed company. It is known only as Warbotron.
Warbotron - WB01 (Unofficial Bruticus) - TFW2005 - The 2005 Boards

Planet X Genesis aka War for Cybertron Omega Supreme. Usually, a TF of his size (over 15") is either a brick or just going to stand in the "A" pose. As you can see, Genesis is capable of much more dynamic stances. Yes, his forearms are massive, but I love that. They are his source of power, but also somewhat of a curse. Terrifying and tragic at the same time. He will always stand apart from other Cybertronians, like some kind of primordial "old god". |

I have been drooling over these Third Party Devastator, Superion, and Omega Supreme for weeks. They are things of beauty, but I just can't afford them.
This may be blasphemous, but does anyone know how that 3rd party Omega compares to the just released Platinum Edition?

I really like the Hercules figure but you have to take out a loan or take out a second mortgage in order to afford him. I wish I have the disposable income a lot of you guys have.

This may be blasphemous, but does anyone know how that 3rd party Omega compares to the just released Platinum Edition? Here's a comparison picture I found. Note that Genesis is mis-transformed; his waist is turned backwards, hiding his ab plate. Aww. G1 Omega re-issue is adorable. I just want to poke his belly.
