    ive wanted a new Predaking almost as much as Devastator, but i dont know about these promo images. the joints look really spindly and everything is pointy, it looks kind of like Bionicle in a not good way. those shoulder cannons look like toothpicks. however i do really like the wings. i hope this is just preliminary stuff, im hoping for a chunkier beefy rendition when this actually comes out.

    I mostly just don't like how similar the legs look. Part of what makes a combiner cooler than just a giant robot is that the limbs don't match.

    Selfishly, I wouldn't mind seeing Hexatron pushed back to April. With Fort Max, MP cassettes and Prime AM/Takara Generations releases (plus SH MonsterArts Destroyah and this SIC Kamen Rider thing I'm tempted by) plus if any of the TFCC figs I have hit in February/March, that'll be a very busy period for me.

    That said, if Hexatron hits in February, I do plan to get it.

    I'm thinking toward the end of 2013 for the first of any Predacons to hit. I'm hoping we see pics of some by at least next year's TFCon.

    I think MMC's year looks kinda like this. Sixshot in Feb with Shadow Maru and GreatShot coming in a month or so gap between one or another, The HOS Crow's, HOS Hound that we saw some pictures of and end the year with the release of these. The first in my hopes atleast come before HOS Hound.

    My foolish idealism.

    This is great a Predabattle. I think the winner will have Uranos height or taller and whoever has the shiniest blind everyone in the room wings. :thumbs2:  Who is the imposter? Stay tuned.

    I'll be honest, I like the MMC divebomb more than the meteor operations (for lack of a better company) one. The over-the-top wings I really like

    They also don't seem to use the same wings in combined mode, which is unfortunate, but , we'll see.

    ^ i dunno-they arent on the arm, and seem about proportionate if you look at the left arm, then the wings. Likely some major partsforming there, but hopefully still the same wings.

    Well on page eight of the forum, several people sowed pics from rk of divebomb's alt mode, and the wings are muuuuch smaller than the wings of the combined mode. Though either way there will be some parts forming

    These images look way better than the prototype getting high praise now. The size and girth of the thing looks right here despite the fact that the image is colored in.

    If the actual product looks anything like this, this would be the one I'd go for.

    Just took a long hard look a the bull and rhino-they are definitely remolds of each other. Were they always?
