Blood for the Baron!

That's pretty much what I said Steve.

Repaint Optimus Prime!

Guys, please keep BFTB Elite thread chatter to a minimum, these are serious issues which I need to be able to flick through and get feedback and suggestions. Sorry to be an ass, I really don't want this to be a substitute for the main forum.

That is a good point about the TF element, DA, but this is the BFTB contribution and as Steve says it won't be the only exclusive on offer. I do like the idea of a SHADOW acronym!

Skeletal Hybrid Assault Droid Offensive Weaponry?

Speaking of which... how would Hasbro view the selling of this figure @ such an event as RCRC4?
I seem to remember Mr Tree not liking the idea of using the Black Majors customs in-case they upset 'the powers that be'.

Well, I have had no feedback from last year's figure and they've abandoned the O-ring concept altogether. Hasbro have been more than accommodating to us, I think they like the fact we give them free advertising. I insulated Dave last year by not putting any mention of RORC on the packaging, it was solely a BFTB release. I'm more than happy to take the risk on a short-run fan-made release and if I get asked to stop then I will, simple as.

What about a Cobra royal guard head?
Got the whole skeleton robot vibe and shouldn't be to difficult to cast.

Or a shad head in black? Wounded shads reconstructed for the battlefield.

Thought about it but the chest logo would look silly with a head logo to match not to mention we'd need to add the eyslits manually. Can I have a link to the Royal guard figure please? Would it work as a single colour as painting them is not an option.

Mate, on the phone and can't figure out how to add links but it was in the imperial procession box set.

This one? Prefer Skelly I have to say.
