Transformers

I agree. The only thing Jerry would have to do is add some details, and that can more or less be done in the paintup.

Oh well, one can only hope.

Actually, a company called Calibre makes them, and Syco is more of less selling and distributing them...kind of like SS I think.

Their too damn expensive....but they are extremely detailed and very very nice no doubt. But not for $1500.

[QUOTE=Podolski06;4405263 Not sure why Jerry would be worried about possible damage, as someone else mentioned, the G1 designs of the Transformers were very solid.[/QUOTE]

Jerry actually was the one who mentioned that he was afraid of damage. Possibly because he thinks people are going to try and transform them :P

The Calibre statues look very nice. I hear people complaining about the price but they dont understand the amount of engineering that goes into prototyping/manufacturing something like a 'Bayformer'. So many small interlocking pieces...way more complicated than a G1 TF

I agree Mr. Yac lol. I agee.

But to what Jerry said, there are lots of individual machined parts involved in making the Calibre Bayformers. I just don't understand why there is so much involvement with the gears and movable parts in the movie. Its that reason alone that drove up the cost of making that movie by $100 million. Totally unnecessary.

Slightly reimagined/updated G1s OK :P
