    BTW, Are there any issues with going to Alt-mode once the crane has been unscrewed from the base? I don't have my set B yet. Thanks. ;)

    I am glad I opted for Hercules. The combined mode is nice, but the individual robot and vehicle mode leave a LOT to be desired in design and poseability.

    These bots look TERRIBLE! I dont even care about all the price garbage talk on price! These bots are just plain ugly and I cant rationalize buying something soo dame awful looking because of price!

    Conclusion

    If You people had the money to buy a Bugatti but realize its expensive and notice a Charger for a very cheaper price. Then its the Charger.............I guess many of you would buy two Corvette's, despite the fact it wasn't as awesome too

    Call me what you will! lol but the Giant combined isnt bad but not as terrific as Hercules. The MakeToy individual bots look like a pile of plastic SHIT too me, thats all I'm saying and thats not being a hater.....Its real talk!

    You know I can see your point but the way I see it they match up pretty well in bot mode so far:

    Exgraver vs Excavator: I give Exgraver the win but not by a large margin.

    Neckbreaker vs Bulldozer: Bulldozer wins I think.

    Dr Crank vs Mobile Crane: I'll give this one to Dr. Crank but if you unscrew the crane the difference isn't that big.

    Heavylabor vs Dump Truck: A slight edge to Dump Truck here.

    That's nice dear. I personally think that Hercules individual bots look like Playskool Gobots made out of Play Dough, but you don't hear me shouting about it.

    Oh come on now. Both Hercules and Giant suck in their own special way. Who cares..

    It's your opinion.


    Like I posted in another, unrelated thread...

    Now the world don't move,

    to the beat of just one drum.

    What might be right for you,

    might not be right for some.

    It takes Diff'rent Strokes to move the world!


    Enjoy your Bugatti and stop needlessly hammering on other people's Chargers.
