Ever thought about making some upgrade kits to some of the figures that have already come out? Like Cobra Commander’s metal mask or even Captain Rex’s Phase 2 helmet? Rather than coming out with a whole new figure it’d be better with an upgrade kit!

We like the ideas and options upgrade kits could offer, and are looking into it. But we also like producing new figures with fresh eyes!

Things are progressing quickly with our development and production processes, and we feel somewhat obligated to take a new approach at characters, especially if our last attempts were years ago.

Plus, you have to consider that characters like Captain Rex have an entirely new look in the Phase 2 gear; it’s not just an accessory bucket swap!

    Not sure i like the sound of that, it’s the reason i stopped buying hot toys, too much of the same already done figures and not enough new.

    Please don’t go down that road Sideshow
