Moonraker (Not-Countdown) Shows Some Third Party Love For Micromaster Characters

A new, and currently unnamed third party group is making their debut with design renders of an upcoming figure based on the Micromaster Countdown. Described as Scout-sized, this figure represents the original's moon buggy alternate mode, and while no launch base is mentioned, it will include a turret unit the figure can sit in, and will interact with Generations Metroplex! See all the images below. Images of an actual prototype piece have been indicated to be coming soon, so it looks like this project may be quite a bit farther along than many others that lead with computer imagery to drum up interest. I'm excited to see a group move outside the comfortable box most third parties seem to have settled in to lately. Thanks to CZ Hazard for the information.

Word is that the designer is working on a Kickstarter to get the project produced!

So it seems we have an update on Moonraker and his remold/recolor Duneracer (Beachcomber?)

(Personally I was hoping for a Buggyman version.)

Company is called Customs by Dawgstar.

With Hasbro and Shapeways teaming up I have decided to put my name forward for the new venture. I will be producing a new range of micromasters that scale nicely with the masterpiece figures. Please share these images to help support me in this venture. Enjoy.

1st up is Moonraker, some of you may have seen him on TFW or on images through google. This is the final version.

2nd up is Duneracer a retool of Moonraker

So Masterpiece Micromasters? Not a bad concept if you ask me. Which Micromasters would you want to see updated?
