    I was never keen on how small MMC Leo Dux looked as a torso but loved the limbs so I decided to smash a couple of third party Predaking's together to try and make the 'ultimate' version. He has the shoulder, arm, wrist and ankle movement of Feral Rex with the added benefit of the bigger Warlord wings which have flap (in and out), up and down and individual feather movement. On top of that he has a waist swivel, strong thigh ratchets and double jointed knees so when I get chance I'll be playing with some poses which will be fun giving his sheer mass and weight but he is very stable on his feet. He stands just short of 17" to his head and can reach a whopping 22" at the wings. Finishing him off is a modded MP Menasor sword designed by Dawgstar. This is a cast of it (as it can no longer be printed due to its size and being classed as a weapon) and I left the cast imperfections as they look like battle damage which I think looks pretty cool.

    For now here's a few solo and comparison shots:

    Hope you guys enjoy and if there is anything else you wanna see I'll see what I can do. I'm just waiting for Warbo Onslaught to give Bruticus a similar makeover.

    This looks great. I'd like to see pictures of Leo Dux in both modes, if they still exist, also some different poses of Predaking.

    Cheers guys :) 

    There is no Leo Dux besides the waist plate/shield. The torso is built to hold the weight and mass of the figure, which is significant, and give better proportions (IMO). So it's just a torso. No compromises made to accommodate anything else.

    Cheers man!
