    I admit, would be nice if you could buy the whole set at once for less than the component bots.

    I think that the 'project' should be exactly that.... a full set at a very good price in one shot. You have to hope the quality is almost the same as the CD's one though :)

    This is neither the Crazydey or Junkion Blacksmith mold.

    Looks better than the other two, with the new rifle, the thigh swivels and the stylized chest wing. Kind of interested!

    You're right :D  At first I didn't notice at all the differences... the head and forearms looked the same to me, so the topic's title :D

    Well the forearms and hands look to be an exact match, but the connecting piece to Scavenger and Bonecrusher are different. It looks like it will allow for more articulation than what the Crazy Devy pieces would allow. The hip piece and thighs look interesting, but I don't really care for the chest shield. Still, if the price is decent, and the quality is good.....then....why not?

    I just hope the quality of these pieces aren't going to be like the seeker molds.....especially the clear seeker.....or Deep Cover.....

    Well, the finished product probably won't be made of clear plastic.

    Looks off. Chest shield is especially laughable.
