    I agree with the above post about mmc. It is one of the only companies that takes what fans say into consideration. I don't think it sways them in their decisions on a large scale. I respect and love that they do their own thing. In my opinion mmc has one of the best futures out there. I just want to say keep up the great work

    guys, since they take fan suggestions into consideration, CUT THEM A LITTLE SLACK about release dates? They may want to gather enough fan opinions and change things before going into final production, which WILL DELAY them. It's perhaps one reason that we haven't seen a prototype fully?

    Just sayin. If you guys like how our feedback matters to MMC, then cut them some slack on release dates and time.

    It's a trade-off afterall.

    The original render of the combined form makes it appear that the shoulder connector for Talon-as-arm would be on his back under the removable wings, but I'm inclined to think that the connector on the front of Talon's torso is the Feral Rex shoulder joint. To me it looks like a portion of the chest rotates upwards with it, extending it from the body, and the connector itself looks very much like a MakeToys Giant shoulder connector.

    Think he may possibly have two connectors? One on his chest for backpack mode, one on his back for arm mode?

    Agree completely, there is nothing more irritating then reading a bunch of impatient posts of people threatening to drop their preorders, not order, or pout in a corner unless there is a reveal every two days. If you want a quality product find some patience. UT is putting out their Prediking quickly, read some reviews to see how that is working out quality-wise.

    you can only pick 2

    you want it quick & cheap = it wont be nice
    you want it cheap & nice = it wont be quick
    you want it nice & quick = it wont be cheap

    (I think the same applies for prostitutes)

    Well from the war hawk I have it's not bad, yet real plain and boring. Mmc will put out the better of the two in all ways. I was always told good things come to those who wait.

    Possibly, but I don't know why a backpack would need a connector that looks like it was designed to rotate. I suppose it's possible that the same connector does double-duty and there isn't actually one on the back.

    There is a 6th member, a remould of Rampage, so it balances out Feral Rexs body, and that in turn allows you to combine Talon onto Rexs back.

    This option is of course optional, and you don't have to have the 6th member at all.

    Myself, I'm buying him and customising a spiked collar and chain....walkies!

    Your list is perfect in our current state of affairs. But you can get cheap, nice and quickly if groups stopped teasing a year or two in advance and waited at least until a working prototype is completed before showing anything.


    As for prostitutes, every depends on how strong your pimp hand is.

    I have very little interest in the 6th member but for some reason, if he comes packed with a chain and leash I will have to buy it. I don't know why I will have to buy it just because of a chain and leash but I will. I guess it is because I like the idea of Predaking one upping himself by adding a hunting pet to the pack. I think it will be a cool little extra that will also add additional character and purpose to the 6th member. Instead of the Sabertooth Tiger being there to balance things out (which is not completely necessary) he will be Feral Rex's pet/weapon/additional attack adding substance and now worth and desire to this new Feralcon.

    Make it so MMC, you added a metal chain to Cyclops, you can make a chain and leash for the 6th bot (every little thing to sell a figure counts and I don't think I am alone in wanting the chain and leash)

    If they put a chain and leash on the 6th member, please make it removeable. That would be the first thing to come off, as I think that it sounds dumb. It barely worked for HA Leadfoot.

    well, I can't completely agree.


    They showed the first two bots. And they are ready to go. The motormaster wasn't suppose to be ready to go. It was leaked. This fandom is just incredibly impatient that's all.
