With me being a huge fan of 3rd Party Transformers (who isn’t these days?), I felt like this poll couldn’t be more appropriate for New Year’s Eve. With 2012 being an awesome year for many 3rd Party Transformers companies, I anticipate 2013 to be just as kickass, or even better!
It’s not even 2013 and we’ve already gotten a slew of announcements and preorders for products being released in the coming year. While I’ve got my reservations for the companies I think will have the biggest years, I want to know what you all think? Are you hoping for some of tried-and-true FansProject goodness, or are you looking to see a newcomer such as MECH iDEAS or Planet X prove themselves?

Out of what we have seen so far, the claim for #1 3rd party group is between MMC and Fansproject. FP is the benchmark of 3rd party and had some great releases in 2012 but MMC stepped up big time with the HOS Seekers. The other groups are catching up as well. I believe 2013 will be amazing for the fans with all the upcoming releases.
In reply to you and aptkane, I don't think you could say it any better! I think you always have to give FP that #1 slot for what they've done for the 3rd party game, but MMC can easily be argued for a #2.
Oh man, that's a tough poll. Inevitabely, I had to vote for FP. While I love what Mastermind Creations is doing, I think Fans Project put out more in terms of new volume which put them over the top. MMC is in a great spot to win next year though!
