    I certainly like that filler versus the one from DNA.. But, I wish they did more for the hands. Feels kind of, "Eh, throw 'em in with the filler."

    For the back filler, I might bite depending on price

    This should colour match with Hasbro's PotP Predaking, right?

    I don't really care about the hand spikes, but I like the waist filler. It fills out a lot more empty space than the DNA set does. The thing is, I really like the DNA upgrades, too. I'm toying with the idea of incorporating both sets of waist fillers, even if it requires some modding (I like the DNA 'spine effect'. I'd like to keep that, even if it's just pretty much ends up being cosmetic). I intend to leave Predaking in combined mode, anyway.

    Well, I guess I'm getting both. Won't be the first or the last time I'm doing this.

    What I really like is how the torso filler is a mini missile rack when it's not used.

    This is what the hands should of been originally, instead of leaving out the spiked knuckles for storage. I'm always pro for parts-forming especially when it comes to combiners, because this is the primary example the reason why integrated combiner parts hurts the other two modes. Sacrificing the other modes for combined mode integration, just doesn't work for me. I'm still buying potp predaking, but I'm also looking for ways to have the leg thighs detach and reattach easily between modes.

    This looks great! Not to mention it'll probably be really affordable. It fixes the one major issue I had with the set, that being the hollow lower back, so I'll definitely be picking it up. Though I might still try to pick up the DNA set for the hands, sword, and wing upgrades. But even if I do I'll get it after this one.

    I mean it’s nice but it feels like it should be part of a bigger set. I mean you could probably print out a back filler.

    Now all we need is a Predaking torso that can split right down the middle with a combined mode head that has an organic brain in it.

    Damn I want that back filler. I preordered the DNA kit so I don't need the knuckle spikes

    Where do these kits normally get sold?

    I'd like to order them from Ohmyprimus but I noticed they don't seem to sell shockwave lab kits.

    I'd prefer to buy from an asian based store that doesn't charge in USD, as converting to AUD often sucks

    I can't give an input on trust worthy seller but, just look up shockwave lab kits and it should be on the first page.

    That's what I've been doing. Tried the product code as well. Closest I can find the "2013 SDCC Comic Con SHOCKWAVE'S LAB Transformers w/ PREDAKING"
