3rd Party Discussion (thread formerly "Fans Project?")

[shmax]

Shmax,
I'm personally all for adding 3rd party products, lord knows I buy plenty of them: but I think we need to tackle the Challenge of the Gobots and Diaclone stuff first. I'm sure Engledogg agrees with me in that regard.

If you're willing to take on the bulk of the moderator duties for any or all of the above, and Engledogg doesn't object, then I say do whatever interests you.

Diaclone won't be much of an issue (same goes for Microchange/Microman) as we already have a bunch of that mold information in the system under the Transformers brand (early TFs used those molds)...

Nothing to add except that maybe the top category should be 'collection' instead of 'toys', since you are limiting yourself to 'toys' when you make that your top level.

Good point. "Toys" was just an example, but I don't think it really matters too much what the root is called as you generally don't see it listed around the site--usually it's sort of invisible and you just see the children listed.

Sooooo.....that a yes? I'm ready to start.

This can easily work with another toyline that Transformers has used some molds from in the past as well as recently. *cough*G.I.*cough*Joe*cough*
