    Your best bet is probably eBay at this point. I think I've seen them going for about 140 + 30-40 shipping, which is only about 20 bucks more than I payed from RK and probably the best deal you're going to get for the foreseeable future.

    My preferred Victorion setup... Legs extended with tightened Pyra Magna knees to serve as the combiner mode hip joints, and additional parts from my bins to fill out and cover the now exposed Pyra Magna thighs.

    If you don't care about the box, there was an eBay seller selling it loose for 150 shipped. Catch a good coupon or eBay bucks you can get it for 135 or so shipped. That's what I did. Came in a little over a week.

    Had a member request I take a picture of Rook beside Hotspot's ladder. I had to take Defensor apart, but figured I'd also use it as an opportunity to see how the KO Black Hands/Feet looked as weapons. IMG_2144.JPG IMG_2148.JPG

    Don't get me wrong, I WANT them to do it. I'd probably buy it, I would have bought the current one if the torso (lynx) has a robot mode, uncombined he is just not a "team" like the other guys, so to me is lacking.

    If they did do it, and here's hoping they do, I can reasonably see them doing it as the precursor to more combiners that involve the next waves of toys in the next 10 years, to justify the cost of the mold. Whatever lines they do, they can always slip in new combiners and redecos for years, every line (well most) has it's remold from previous lines slipped in and repainted like with CHUG toys of yesteryear, and even the movie lines had old Unicron trilogy toys mixed in as repaints.

    Looking good!

    You should take pics of your G1 combiners hulking up into their CW versions standing behind them :ev:

    hmm. A friend of mine might be interested. May i ask, why just the torso of the box set? Have you made a custom combiner/set up? I only ask as i have the same problem with G2 Silverbolt. The limbs have joined Sky Lynx and i feel i'll have trouble moving it on alone.

    I'd also like to see the G1 guys next to the new versions!
    Its kinda interesting to see what they changed. I still want to make a more faithful Cw Bruticus.

    Menasor has the Eliminator Rifle from Renderform, Bruticus' rifles are from the Perfect Effect PC-10 kit.

    Is that the PC 10 Head too? I like the way you have the HFGs around his waist, it gives him some extra bulk.

    Yup, that's the PC-10 head.

    The HFG on his waist are from CW Blast Off. I ended up buying two just so I would have a matching pair :lol
