February 26, 2009 : What Do You Get When You Transform a Transformers Bust?

Dear Readers,

First all, I am back!  I missed you all and I wish I had something awesome to blog about when I was on leave but alas it was boring.  Now that I am back I have spent the day doing many mundane tasks, but lo and behold I went snooping for some projects I knew I would be working on in the coming weeks and I found THIS!  Turns out we are starting a new line of Transformers Resin! Exciting… I know right?

So If you are a fan of DST you know of the old Marvel Icons line of the past, if you are not familiar check the archives.  I like to think of them as the essence of the character in large chess piece form.  I probably own enough of these guys to start a giant chess game.  Well now we are resusitating the Icon’s line in the form of bots!  Autobots that is!

The line will start with the most important of all, Optimus Prime of course.  I saw the paint master pictures and we have gone with the 80’s style cartoon accurate Optimus.  He has great clear and sharp lines and awesome color.  I can’t wait to add him to my collection, look for him in previews soon and on the website.  I will post pictures when I photograph him myself.
