Maybe too expensive. I don't think the design team's budget is high enough to replicate these in the toyline.

All of the trucks are neat. Two of them specifically make me think if they were produced for the Joe line we would be one step closer to having them repainted later as Joe/ Transformer crossover Optimus and Rodimus Convoys.

Not really a sculpting issue..its more of a non-desire to spend money to do it issue. They cant even get Wave 3.5 in stores much less ever expect to actually PAY to have something awesome made like these lol...theyd end up being wired spring loaded accessory homages like all of the really odd ball packs ins the current fgures have....like that spinning whirl till you hurl CLAW with booster rocket engine strapped to back pack thingamgig with ultimate storm shadow...best to leave this awesome stuff to newer companies like SK Omega one day or that other future looking group making the 1/18th scale steampunkish mech and such..they are new with nothing to loose and need some bang in the retail space...these could do it is they made em right.

Their neat concepts. I can see what aspects of these designs were pulled from to make the existing toolings. Even down to some of the weapons. That power armor with few tweaks could just as readily be a new take on the snake armor.
But I don't want Gijoe to become those overlypainted balljoint stuck and paintsmell toys other companies make for collectors. I kind of like Hasbros wacky blend of over the top realism contrasted by retro toyetic play features.

Yep, this is pretty much the direction I think Joe should go in.
