    Wanted to start a separate thread for this wicked project coming out for the Ferocicons from MMC. There's still one more surprise about this project and they have a cool back story for this team. They are said to be pre-G1 earth and they have no faction as the Reformatted Storyline that includes Hexatron & Nova-Prime is based on Cybertron before there were Autobots and Decepticons. So the Ferocicons (Predacons) had no alliance to the Decepticons yet.

    SIXTH FIGURE ANNOUNCEMENT:

    He will be a Sabre-toothed tiger, an established character and a nice counterpart to Rampage, so you can balance the combined mode out with two similar arms, and move Divebomb onto the rear of the figure.

    Some additional information via Cenokibble (creative writer for MMC)

    Gestalt is 32cm tall from feet to head, excluding shoulders, backpack cannons etc...

    All 5 figures will all be discounted 15%-20% for pre-orders

    Pricing is based on the packā€“in content and design of the figures: e.g. the leg members will have more parts, and Razorclaw is bigger.

    Updated COMBINED mode picture incoming, hopefully this evening.

    Also, sixth member is a figure...not sixth accessory. Full figure. New member, established character joins the team, with fiction to explain. Not needed for combined mode if you don't want to, but very cool.

    Updated with new images of R02- Talon and R04-Leo Dux

    If these are a similar scale to Hercules, I'm in . . .

    I love the proportions of the combined mode. Just screams massive robot.

    So can I preorder this yet? LOL. Seriously though between this, the HOS Seekers, Hexatron, FP Menasor, and TFC Superion the next year is going to be amazing, and I will be poor.

    its nice to finally see them make these. I remember a few years back talking to one of the guys of MMC (though at the time there wasn't MMC yet) and he was showing me sketches of predacons and predaking. Looked awesome. This was one of his dream projects to do. Unfortunately lack of funds (certainly not lack of talent) was the holdup back then. I'm happy this dream project is seeing the light for them and for us fans.

    It's impossible for me to get excited about something that I can't imagine actually seeing within the next twelve months given that they can't even give us an estimate on Hexatron who is much much further along.

    My distaste for silhouettes has not been abated with this. Silhouettes are like over-the-pants HJs. Hard to turn down, but unfulfilling.

    That said, I love Predaking, I like MMC's work and I'll be certain to give this a serious look when there's actual information to be had.

    They didn't want to give an exact time for Hexatron as there's still other things ahead of it such as the HOS seekers and there's further testing to be done on Hexatron. They don't want to pull an iGear where toys keep getting delayed because of unrealistic time frame or factory delays. MMC wants to announce release dates once they know when the toy is fully ready to be mass produced.

    That's good, but I think I'd rather have them not show anything at all until they're fairly certain of a release date. Waiting for years after the first tease kind of sucks, and they risk people losing interest over time, especially with all the other stuff coming out.
    Or maybe I just want Hexatron and the Ferocicons NOW :D

    Funny as it sounds... I don't mind if they are larger than FP's offerings... particularly because G1 Predaking towered over most other combiners. (Yes, I know beast probably should make a much smaller combiner than all the vehicular ones, but there's something imposing about it.)

    I'm dying of laughter! ROFLMAO

    I'm excited at the prospect but if course reserve judgement. I dont think I've ever liked their timelines from reveal to release. If anyone can do any lighting of the photos silhouettes it would be sweet.

    I cannot wait for these. These will be epic. I need to remortgaged the house after all these announcements.

    MMC is starting to show up Fans Project. I am more excited for their stuff then FP.

    Love the individual bots and alts but again the torso area looks skinny/lanky.

    That's gold right there.
