    I want these but I don't mind being teased. I'm already saving up for Project Uranus and FP Not Menasor.

    The torso looks small. And the head is tiny. In Predaking mode I mean. Hope they can make Razorclaw a bit bigger.

    That's fine. I didn't say they shouldn't try. I just said it's impossible for me to get excited about something that's coming "someday" that gives me little more than a small idea of what there is to be excited about. There are lots of toys that fall under this heading. Until today, Fansproject Menasor was one such project. Now that there's a thing to be excited about and, sure enough, I am excited.

    Wow a razorclaw with proper proportions not to mention the tease of the our members plus Un-predaking (or would that be Herbaqueen? j/k) And an introduction by fansproject with Tuneup (un-Breakdown) and Speedlimit (un-Wildrider) And I told myself Herc would be the only 3rd party ghestalt. Scramble city love this year and I have no problem with that! My upcoming first born child will be ok with going to community college right?! Or does Sally Mae accept the excuse . . . "BUT it was Predaking!"

    I think the size of this predaking should be bigger than the other recent combiner figures like herc since the orginal G1 predaking was the biggest g1 combiner toy.

    The alt-modes bug me a bit. Razorclaw and Rampage have *tiny* feet, Rampage's shoulders look odd, and Headstrong seems way too "horizontal/wide" for a Rhino.

    Combined form looks awesome of course, but I really like combiners to be good in every mode, even if most people leave them combined 99% of the time.

    MMC is really good about pretty fair pricing for what you get, not FP good but pretty good, so I'm hoping these guys are below Herc level pricing, maybe more around Giant. It really comes down to how big these guys are. Though, if it is Herc size and pricing, well, I like Predaking a lot more than Devastator and will drop the money on him. SO glad MMC is doing this.

    My thoughts exactly. A tad beefier would have been nice.

    i think this puts at rest Justitoys Tantrum sketch from last year.
    Although, given MMC record, I don't expect Predaking to be complete before mid 2015.

    Shouldn't Predaking be bigger than Devastator/Bruticus tho? If he is Herc sized he'd stand perfectly next to them. However if they are gonna scale with Herc/Superion then he needs to be fucking huge.....18+" at least.

    Tuneup and Speedlimit? Actual names or something you made up? Cool names, either way.

    I don't see any swords in the art. The Predacons need swords. Maybe Infinity Warfare.

    Yes I've spoken to MMC and they are very aware about the fandom price sensitivity when they price their releases.

    Here's another tease, there will be a sixth member as part of this crew, can anyone guest who it might be?

    Is the sixth member going to be the crotch and thighs to help fill out the torso section?

    A sixth member, huh? Cool. Couldn't even begin to guess who though...maybe a Beast Wars Predacon in G1 Cybertronian style?
