FansToys is definitely staying busy these days. With some of their other projects nearing completion, they have turned their attention back towards their first attempt at a car-bot, Masterpiece-styled FT-15 Willis (designed after Generation 1 Hound).
FansToys has released the first colored test shots of Willis via their weibo page and it looks like they have gone for a more toy-accurate deco. Willis sports a glossy camo green paint job similar to the G1 toy, but also has many of the cartoon-aesthetics that many collectors have come to expect in their Masterpiece-styled figures. The figure comes choc full of weaponry, which includes both the cartoon-accurate rifle as well as the toy-accurate blaster, plus Hound’s distinctive shoulder-mounted rocket for the bot-mode and a real-world machine gun mount for the alt-mode.
Be sure to stop by our discussion boards to let everyone know what you think of this deco. Did they capture the true essence of the character, or did they miss the mark?
Willis currently has a release date of 1st Quarter of 2016 and can be pre-ordered from all of our site sponsors.
