    Just kidding on the childhood thing.

    I'm actually in agreement about filling the sense of nostalgia.

    I'm just waaayy too impatient to go one figure at a time. I have no problem waiting for an entire set of figures, but you stick one in my hand and tell me that it forms an arm and I have to wait for the rest, I will go completely bonkers waiting for the rest.

    So, definitely to each their own. Those who have the patience to go one figure at a time, I applaud your resolve.

    I think this picture has just about become obsolete. Both Talon and Not-Tantrum have changed drastically from the computer renderings. Just look at the wings of Predaking and you can see that they scraped a lot of this initial idea.

    Therefore new PIC MMC!

    Scraped or scrapped? I think you mean the latter. Also not that there are actually two "wings"... One for Divebomb, and another for the gestalt.

    Don't get me wrong, I'd also like an updated picture. The response was to "Where is the combiner picture?"... Missing the "new" there...

    And hopefully to tweak the alt-mode to make it a little more different from the Rhino. :) 

    (and while I would also like leg-mode to not be quite so bottom-heavy, I don't really expect it---if the missile launchers/beast-haunches could hinge around to be on the back of the leg it'd look better IMHO, and wouldn't force the legs to be so very widely spread apart)

    Why is Razorclaw so small in combined mode? For that price, you'd expect them to come up with a better design solution. I like UT Predaking better. They look like small Masterpieces.

    They specifically wanted them to all be the same size in alt-mode, since they were clearly depicted as such on the show.

    Personally, I'd have gone for a bit larger Razorclaw---maybe not a full 50% bigger than the others or something, but "enough" for a better torso while still "fitting in" with the others.

    Looks good but I think the only 3P gestalt I plan on owning for now is FP Menasor

    except u can only hold something in pol for up to 6 months. So unless these come out one per month keeping all in pol may not be possible.

    Damn, another excellent point.

    Anyone know what the release timeline is for each figure?

    Ah hell, just pulled the trigger on this. MMC don't let me down!

    This is so so cool!

    I don't care what i gotta do, be late on rent, not pay a bill, i'm getting this set. This is what we all have been waiting for. Thank you third party companies who make the characters of an alltime era come to life in our hand as they were on screen.

    I'm going to have to second this. IIRC UT's version has the two wings. At 18" I don't think MMC's needs a larger set of wings.

    That is amazing. At this point, the only things making me hesitate are the color tone and overall price
