    Flex Ark can you post a picture of Voyager Predaking with some Cyberverse, specifically dragon mode. Curious how it actually looks because i've only imagined it. hehehe

    I'll see what I can do. I'm still not sure about opening him. I'm tempted though.

    Ah right, then don't trouble yourself on my account. Maybe someone else can provide comparison pics...

    I bet someone from the Prime Appreciation Thread has a Voyager Predaking and Cyberverse they could setup.

    Picked up Twinstrike yesterday and he's great! Only complaint is that his front legs are a different, metallic looking blue compared to the rest of the blue on him. His heads don't necessary only have to look down depending on how low you position the front legs. Really looking forward to picking up some more legion predacons.

    To do what you want, you might need the bigger one.

    Really good, thanks Jetbolt, that is the one.

    He seems big enough to be the big monster he's meant to be by my reckoning, think he'd command enough space on a shelf too, will look good with the other Predacons CV... Nothing not to like, maybe just a case of all the detail and the proper big size of the Ultimate.

    I'll have to wait and see what situation i'm in when he gets released in the UK, could still well go Voyager.

    I very much dislike Smokescreen. The arms are just bad and too stumpy to look good. I do like the doors folding out, but that's about it.
    Twin Strike needs kbee joints to be a real winner, but I really like the beast mode.
    Bumblebee is.. Bumblebee. I'm impartial.
    Airachnid is fantastic! I'll be getting multiples for some planned customs.
    Prime is okay. I really like the alt mode, and the bot mode is solid. I just dislike the head setup.
    Bulkhead's not bad, though the only reason I bought it was for completion.
    Predaking is easily my favorite. Dragon mode is solid and the bot mode has a good shelf presence.

    I'm most looking forward to Shockwave, Hardshell, Shockwave, Abominus, and Shockwave.
    Oh yeah, and Metroplex.

    I'm rolling around on the floor and dying in anticipation of some ebay dork finally putting up a Twinstrike that won't cost me 30 dollars with shipping. It got so bad I ordered Fallback. The mold is nice, I don't have it and I like the deco. A little bulky Autobot never did any harm. Makes the wait for the terrorcons a little less awful. Plus I'm sure he'll go better with their weapons than they themselves do.

    What kind of plastic is the current crop of grey guns, anyway?

    I kinda feel the opposite here. I would probably buy the little guy if he had a tailsword instead because at least that way he wouldn't end in that lumpy thing. Of course, I'm basically never a fan of projectile launchers so y'know, I'm biased. I've also been playing too much Dark Souls so going [dragon tail] -> [odd sword thing] is perfectly natural to me.

    Dark Souls made cutting off dragon tails cool.

    The Terrorcons all have individual bios and weapons on the new BH site, which kinda hints toward them being released individually as well.

    LOVE Predaking. Such a good COmmander, almost up to Scout-level excellence.

    How is Airachnid's rotor mounted? This will affect my purchase. If it's a 3mm post, then she's bought.

    Yeah. So I've revisited my opinion on tailswords from "lol" to having a soft spot for them. Granted, some of the more strictly organic stuff still looks bad but a black tail scimitar or something would've been perfect for commander Predaking. It's like they decided that the defining accessory of all three sizes wouldn't be a sword but a wonky projectile launcher.

    Has anyone been able to find legion class twinstrike in stores? He's the only one out of the three i haven't seen. On a side note, I deeply regret not buying commander class predaking.

    I've seen Twinstrike a few times and bought two.

    Predaking is everywhere, so you'll have another chance.

    Isn't Twinstrike only two per case? That would explain relative rarity.

    Walmart stores seem to have more abundance of these figures.. Does this hold true for those of you who have bought the recent cyberverse BH line?
