Got an itch for a certain type of converting robotic action figure that certain Fortune 500 companies (who will remain nameless) are failing to scratch? Well, that’s where the wide world of third-party figures comes in, and The Chosen Prime’s sponsored panel at the recent TFcon LA 2024 was chock-full of them!
You can check out the full half-hour-and-change presentation here, from the official TFcon YouTube channel:
We can’t run down everything from everyone here (unless you don’t mind us getting back to this post until a few weeks from now), but here are a few highlights taken from the above video to help whet your appetite for more:
We’ve got all sorts of stuff to look forward to, including the not-Transformers: The Ultimate Guide version of not-Primus, not-Beast Wars Megatron, toon-shaded not-Grimlock, not-Fallen, not-Leozack and not-Liokaiser, not-Superion, not-Hot Spot, not-Ironhide sporting an optional all-red head (just like he didn’t do in the not-comic books from not-Marvel), not-Nemesis Prime (complete with the trailer that the original [actually] lacked), and a peek at a large group of ships that we’re fairly certain is not Tidal Wave.
Oh, and two guys who pretty much are the two guys from Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, because we all know certain people in certain places are probably never touching those two again.
Remember, this is just some of what they showed off there. Check out the full video above for even more of your favorites from the world of third-party plastic playthings that change from one form to another, but most assuredly do not “transform” or anything like it.
If you’d like to talk about these reveals, or anything else that’s sorta like a Transformer (but officially isn’t), then head over to the “B.O.T. Talk” section of our forums.
