    Hmmn. I wonder if it'd do something like make a 4-legged more animalistic combined mode. Maybe like a griffin or something? (being a mixture of parts and all, with wings) Or centaur-like.

    Hi there.

    Glad that the project has pulled you into the discussion!

    Just to clear it up for you, it's Cenokibble and Rravage, but you are forgiven!

    The wings are 18.2 inches long, so are a nice spread on Rex's back. If they were too long the proportions would be off.

    Of course comments and criticisms are taken into account, hence the change in Talons head.

    Like any new product, it could have some teething roads to cross. The other thing with the 'breakages' in reviewers videos is that people might not be used to the detail/design/construct of the product. MMC products are not your typical blocky toys, the attention to detail is amazing, and realism ( in a world of giant transforming robots ) is taken to the best level possible.

    You will also notice that, as reviewer Vangelus mentions, that MMC products are vastly improving, this comes from listening and improving things on production.

    As for the 6th member. Again, it is not in the new render. That would spoil a big piece of Rex!

    I love what you guys did. He looks more menacing now. Bulking up the torso was nice but bulking up the thighs made this perfect. :)

    Not-Tantrum is hot on the heels of Not-Weirdwolf in having a temptingly evocative poses and sculpts in prototype photos. The robot mode heads are particularly expressive and Bovis' seems better to my eye in the new pictures.

    That is very cool idea. My mind would be blown (after seeing the new render) all over again.

    I'll bet the 6th member becomes the waist/hip/rear/cod piece armor to hide razorclaw's skinny upper legs in combined mode to give the torso more bulk.

    or... He Becomes some kind of Shield or BFG.

    Ok, then the only logical conclusion now is that the 6th member turns him into BWTM Megatron :lol

    I am wondering about the pre-order dates for these. Given that we have had two pre-orders go live this week, and prices for both Razorclaw and the sixth member are unknown, its a little scary planning a budget for these. Can anyone say that we will get two pre-orders live in Feb and two in March, or now one per month (pay cheque!) for the next four months, or a months break and the two more....? I dont even care so much about the release dates or that sixth member, I just want to make sure that I am not blindsided and end up missing Razorclaw as he turns up in the last week of a month unexpectedly.... which would utterly suck!

    My only concern at this point is size. Hercules is kind of the end all for most folks re 3rd party devastator, and I'd like this guy to be bigger. Was really hoping that 6th member would add that height. Right now aren't the 2 the same size? I'd rather not have to get a giant to be in scale with him.

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! WHY DID I HAVE TO COME INTO THIS THREAD?!?!?!!!!

    I had just bumper this guy off my "to get" list earlier this week. Then I saw the new render...

    To tell you guy the truth... I don't have a problem spending money on an awesome product. I love how they bulked up that torso and thighs. Bravo MMC. Your Predaking is back on the list. You just bumped off FansProject's Menasor ;)

    Hmmm the only other thing I can think of then is that the 6th member is.....

    Galvatron.

    since my BFG idea wasn't shot down. that has to be it. :D 

    G1 Galvatron did have a handgun mode of sorts. so it would make sense eh?

    But that can't be it. That would be too easy. :lol 

    Ah, but one can dream. :)

    Hmmm, I don't suppose there's another manta ray floating around besides that one Seacon? I'm suddenly getting visions of a massive cape. :D 

    Ok, probably not ...

    Well, as long as it doesn't add on like Gaia Unicron *shudders* I'm sure it'll be cool.

    The 6th member will be a Targetmaster, a first for 3rd party combiners.

    :lol  but so true.

    This is how I feel as well on all points. I was going to get Uranos after all were released and reviewed, but after seeing MMC's Predaking and 4/5 FPJ's Menasor, I'm out with TFC's Uranos--I like it, but not enough to make me really want it.

    My wife is seriously going to kill me:lol 
    :lol 
    With two big beefy horned animals, two big cats and only one bird, I was wondering if the optional member would be another bird to better balance out the team, but who really knows?

    Before the new render, I thought the sixth member would form part of the midsection to balance out Predakings look, but MMC solved that problem bit time.
    Oh, okay. Thanks for the update.

    The sixth optional member can be used with all five current members at the same time, right? It isn't something like an optional limb or something, is it?

    I think the 6th member will be a weapon. Like Overbite is to Piranacon.
    Btw, where can I find CLEAR images of all members?? I can only seem Tantrum and Divebomb and a blueprint of Predaking.

    That's all that exists to the public so far.
