Do they plan on doing any other victory bots after they're done with Leo?

Is there really this much interest in just a 3PG for Transformers? Asking sincerely.

I think we need something like a 3PG but personally could give two fucks about TFs. I appreciate that some people do, but prefer something like the KO Block Lego 3P Brick thread where it's not tied to say the Spy manga bricks or Simpson bricks or other 3P brick IPs (or generic IP looking brick crap).

There was a /pbg/ plastic brick general or something for non-lego bricks including KOs but it died. Maybe u can try restarting it.

Anyway what you need to understand first is that "3rd Party" refers to any maker that's not the IP rights holder. So technically Hasbro, Lego etc are also 3rd parties when making products for Star Wars, Marvel whatever they don't own. So if you just make an "Everything 3P" thread it's going to include every other toyline, which doesn't make sense for a thread.

What makes TFs special is that Hasbro's 3rd Party license agreement very likely has some non-compete clause that doesn't allow them to make transformable action figures, which defeats the point of TF toys for many. This led to Transformers having a large market of *unlicensed* 3rd parties making TFs that can transform, hence a special thread to keep track of them.

Transformers are the most popular toys outside of LEGO
So yes

used to be a pretty active general. I don't know what killed it off.
>>
>>11803258
There fucking used to be but the autosage limit and dying userbase killed everything. How do we even get new users to ask stupid shit like this?

>>11803335
Trolls unironically
People just don’t post here as much any more

Sucks because this used to be my main source for news. Trying to get in the habit of checking tfw regularly again, but that place sucks.

/3pg/ is better than a lot of threads, I just think there's not a ton of news rn and the userbase of 4chan as a whole has drastically declined post-hack.

Anything's better than /tfg/ though, last I checked that place is still overrun by trolls to the point where there were like seven threads on /toy/ a few days ago.
