    This, if I'm gonna get these I simply can't right now as Grindrod is long out of stock everywhere.

    Soooooo glad I stuck with this amazing line from the beginning. I didn't even need them to combine, but this is freaking incredible!!

    The irony is that the limb bots so far are either slightly more expensive or much cheaper (in the case of Aurora) than a lot of other combiners and they are bigger in size and IMHO better in quality. But all sorts of people are justifying the "engineering" wonders of FP and MT products, etc for the price. Just LOL. I mean, I compare my 3 existing TW bots againsts FP Menasor's limb bots, and it's like, that's all I get for 59.99 each?

    Nice combine mode, and happy I did pick these up. Really picked these up to represent the Throttlebots in my collection.

    I expect to see grindrod prices start to rise, especially considering he's hard enough to find as it is.

    Man, look at those shoulder joints. His arm poseability is going to be insane!

    You looking TFC & MMC? This is how you do combiner proportions. Amazing. I'm not seeing any complaints about the torso bot being too big either which is good.

    Win.

    I may be wrong, but I'm thinking a huge portion of the gestalt is kibble "that goes in a drawer" when not being used. That's totally against how most 3P companies are doing their gestalts nowadays. Everything's a trade-off.

    I really hope a forced reference doesn't happen, and this guy just gets a badass name like Throttle Kaiser 7.

    I'd personally take that trade off everytime to get a better looking end result.

    I think I'm in the minority on that one though.
