    They're outlandishly big. To me, they look awful.

    Apparently everyone offended by the big wings has never seen him in the comic book nor have they ever had a feral rex.

    Never cared for Feral Rex, myself. Too over detailed. I wouldn't mind the wings if DNA designed the "feathers" to slide further into the orange body of the wings. As they are, Divebomb can't stand correctly with them folded down

    DNA offer explanation on the delay? Re-design? Back to formula?

    Well, we know Grimlock's kit was delayed for a change or two (and it still didn't really fix anything) and they listened to the complaints about the color on Predaking's sword, so I'm guessing those two issues led to a slight back up at the factory, pushing the release date down a bit.

    Plus, it's 3rd party. They'd be late, anyway.

    The only 3P I ever consider worth it are add-ons, so this has my attention.

    Those wings are hilariously big, unfortunately. I'm sure they were trying to emulate that Zoid-ish Feral Rex, but they just don't work here. The fact Divebomb can't actually fold them down in bot mode is silly.

    I do like the side cannons and back spine. The spine in particular just seems to work nicely and better than that box...thing the other company is making.

    I'm kind of luke warm on the sword. On one hand, he never used a sword like that, or even more than once. It's a nice throwback to the G1 set, but I don't see it as necessary as a proper set of guns would have been.

    The real winners of this set are the hands. Man, those look soooo nice. Can't wait for Predaking to be able to throttle other bots.

    The only other item I'd have liked would have been a transforming cannon like the G1 version. The stock cannon is okay, but lacks character.

    I can handle the delay, as the holiday is a pretty expensive time of year.

    The only thing I don't like much about the wings is the design - I'd like them to look fuller and more solid. Size is fine. In any event, I am all in for those hand, torso fillers and sword, the wings were never what sold me in the first place.

    Watch them be the same company and they take an additional month or two and ship 'em all out all at once so our wallets cry in agony as our spouses and significant others beat us because we spent more money and Christmas is over. *puts on Kevlar* BRING IT!

    My Feral Rex has OS wings, and I still feel he needs bigger wings.
