    The sixth and last figure will contain all the parts for the combiner mode. I assume this will be like the old G1 combiners, where the "leader" has the gestalt fitst, feet head and chestplate (s).

    I've always thought Headrobots to be an interesting name for a 3rd party company...

    Very good point. The two leg modes shown so far both look like they are standing on their tippy-toes.

    Could all of the limb bots be Scramble City style, with feet and fists to plug in as you wish?

    A little late to this party - which online retailer has the best price on this and it's still in stock?


    Thanks for the help

    All depends as you didn't even specify the shipping method and where you are located.

    I don't know, but you probably would have found out a long time ago if you searched the stores yourself :) 
    Most people have this by now, so I doubt many people are keeping tabs on where to find this guy anymore.
    Try 3rdpartystore.com

    Robotkingdom has them for 59.90. If you pick small packet shipping thats 10 dollars to Canada so the US will be quite similar.

    I also saw this cool item on Shapeways for Grind Rod. It's a reproduction of the handgun Rollbar used in the Marvel Transformers comic.

    if anyone is interested i'll have an extra opened grind rod used only for display that i'll be getting rid of very soon. i was thinking of selling for $62 shipping included within US. outside of country shipping would be added based on where it's going. only paypal will be accepted. i'll post here and in junkion exchange hopefully some time in the next week.
    or you can pm me if interested. first come, first served.


    ......if you happen to miss above mentioned sale......
