    They probably should be 9cm; they said Infernio and Cyclonus should be about 11cm. Seaspray was a little over 6cm. As best as Google can translate: " Cube of the giant country series - Highway Overlord, single head in the high 9-9.5cm, the main head high 10.5-11.2cm."

    Menasor seems like a hard one to get right. I wish them luck, but I am not expecting perfection for the combined mode. If the robot and alt-modes are anything like their other reveals I think I could be happy.

    It looks like they are running a poll to decide what to release first: The Stunticons, Ultra Magnus, Seaspray or Infernio/Grapple. I'm kinda hoping Seaspray or Infernio win. The DX9 and IF legends combiners were pricey so something a little smaller to check the quality would be appreciated.

    EDIT: I think I read it wrong; I went to the actual vote and it translated to Ultra Magnus(Transporter), Infernio(Fire Extinguisher), Seaspray(Surfer) and one of the Stunticons. So one of the Stunticons as their first figure and Infernio not Grapple.

    With all of the proto pics they've already released this past week, I'm willing to let silhouttes sneak by just this once.

    That would be great. I'm already psych'd about Iron Factory's Sideswipe... don't need competition there... more new characters!

    If it's as good as hulkie it will be glorious.

    I hope all the combiner bits are built in.

    People mentioned silhouettes but those silhouettes are quite revealing. All four of the right car modes are there, the bot modes show decent proportions and articulation with all the right details. This could be another legends project were people say damn why can't we have that in bigger. The combined mode if the silhouette is to be believed looks fine to me too.

    They probably shouldn't start with this project as you say, still this is looking good.

    Hmmmn. Cars remind me a bit of DX9's---all real except for the Tyrell 6-wheeler, which is close but not quite. (The rear spoiler is totally wrong, the nose looks iffy).

    Do the 3P companies fear Tyrell, but not HasTak/Lambo/Porsche, when it comes to licensing laws?

    And if they are anything similar to Infernio and Seaspray they should be decent, or look decent. With only prototypes it is hard to say; it all looks promising. It sounds like they have a lot of plans, I hope they have the business end worked out. I would hate for them to end like Shapeshift Inc or Ark Studios.

    Beachcomber!!!!

    And they're farther along on Stunticons than just silhouettes. Not big on Jetwing Prime, but if he has a regular alt mode maybe I can replace GT Optimus

    No... it's like... a mock-up of Godbomber Ginrai by taking Ultra Magns, taking off the chest armor, and putting on wings, cannon from Godbomber, an optimus head, and some power master prime weapons.

    Weirdest thing Ive ever seen.

    Not excited that Inferno/Grapple seem to be the same size of the Stunticon carbots unless it's just a wonky camera angle.

    Da faq you say? That really is crazy.

    I think the stunticons are all much too big. That means motomaster will be ultra Magnus size. No thank you. Please nake the limbs the size of UT Headmasters, thank you.

    The God Ginrai retool is a parallel to how CW Ultra Magnus was used to make TR PMOP.

    Don't listen to people wanting smaller stunticons. They look fine just like they are.
