Site sponsor Robotkingdom.com had the upcoming TFC Toys World War II military based combiner limbs(Power Core Combiner compatible) on display! If you wanted to further make Bombshock into an even more Bruticus- looking gestalt(a WWII themed one at that!), this set is not one to pass up. This also caters to fans who wanted individual members to combine with the PCC commanders, not just automorphing drones.

Check out more images of the TFC Toys Iron Army,(brought our way by ORIO), after the jump!

interesting. that altmode silhouette looks pretty awesome.
Gundamben831
that is some serious instructions to transform RC but I can't wait until she shows up, also the "do not touch" always cracks me up because it is just asking for someone to touch it. Just put the damn things behind glass or in a plastic case lol.
TFao
Damn. That pic of the blue PE motobot just made me realize that I will definitely be throwing cash down for one of these molds.
Peagis
Freaking awesome! Soooooo gonna start saving for this!
sh002
i'll probably get this superion.
Ratchets Hatch
I posted this a few minutes earlier... but my thread disappeared. No news credit for me?
Alucard77
Wait, I thought there wasn't going to be any 3rd Party companies at Botcon
Gundamben831
no toys but they can have pictures apparently
Roger Semerad
Superion looks interesting, but there isn't enough shown to make an opinion on it yet.
The more important bit are those instructions for Arcee. I'm really disapointed that she part-forms.
Scaleface
So is Super Ion just 3 robots and you have to add two Energon jets?
Ratchets Hatch
Aw, thanks DESTRO! You rock!

What makes you think that?
Nemesis251
That blue arcee is toy porn. Almost forgot I checked the link to see the combiner.

No, the three silhouettes are just the three modes of TFC's NOT-Fireflight. I think they're teasing one piece at the time, just like they initially did with Hercules.
deaculpa
so on the way we have superion, computron, and a heavily alleged menasor.
sounds like a good year for the divorce lawyer market.
Gundamben831
^lol
optics
I'm thinking TFC is going to release each Super Ion limb in the same order as Herc.... Only because the first image is of the right arm.
Yobuster
So much for the don't bring 3rd party stuff to botcon. I get the feeling Robotkingdom is asking for trouble. Any of the other retailers showing any 3rd party stuff? Pictures or otherwise?

will probably get all of them. haha my wife jokes around and asks is this room for our son or your toys?
skiss
Any idea if Ion aka superion is the same scale as herc or is he downsized to the norm 3rd party combiner size?
G.I.EDDIE
Yay!!...a Superion to be excited for!...meaning a 3rd party version...

Hope the individual bots just a tad smaller than MP seekers...that'd put them in real scale wit Herc...

It's been reported elsewhere that Superion will be the same height/size as Hercules.
Optimus Magnus78
This new Superion really made my day. I would have been happy with Computron but this is equally awesome. Quick, some make the Ion Not-Superion Megathread, its time to start the journey again!!!

lame =(
sarnian1979
Super. Ion. Way to sail close to the wind with the IP there!

I'm quite interest in this I must admit, definitely a wait and see on the Aesthetic.
masishadow
Only thing I care about is Superion's joints and QC.
ChaosLordX
All we need now is for TFC to sell Iron Army piece by piece just like hercules and Super Ion
phoenix88
awesome. bought as long as the individual bots aren't as slightly pricey as hercules' were. i cant see each bot being a voyager for Superion being justifiable. I can see silverbolt being at least a voyager, and the others being deluxes
Ryoku
Oh man, Superion is my major combiner. I want to see this thing be amazing.
Nemesis251
What about Computron? Was that a tease?
Peagis
Computron was a guess as to what it was because we couldnt really make it out at the time.
DJW107PRIME
Some good stuff in the works.

The only real part-forming going on there is her large backpack.

Granted her weapons are integrated into her alt mode but I think it is actually pretty cool how her sniper rifle can break down into smaller weapons.

It isn't too bothersome in my opinion but hey thats what it is, my opinion.

I still see posts on their Facebook wall from folks unhappy with QC on Hercules. So I'm probably going to pass. Plus, I actually like my Superlink Superion with the FP add on and the Process insert.

The upside is that here soon I'll probably be able to get a RoTF Superion and a Snowman upgrade for dirt cheap.
Grimlock_13
Hell yes, Superion!
Zeitgeist
i can tell by that one blackout picture that this superion will rock. the gestault wars have begun!

ps - awesome its in scale with my devastator, hercules!
Timesynch
I felt a great disturbance in the TFW, as if millions of wallets suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.

Well, I already made the decision to get TFC Hercules, might as well add Super Ion to the collection.
DethPike
I can't stand up. I'm THAT excited for this.

As I said before, Let TFC Combiners be inscale with TFC Combiners. I am so glad that they have set their own standard. Although, Devastator should be slightly bigger perhaps....After all hes made of SIX and Superion is of FIVE!

The FB Bruticus and Superion are just to damn SMALL and whoever likes that than fine.

But let their stuff fall inscale with exactly their stuff and if other 3rd party company follows FANSPROJECT's scale than I just wont buy.

HOOOOORAY! for TFC COMPUTRON and SUPERION making gestalts as they should be.... BIG & ENORMOUS,

STRONGLY AGREE!!

Well said

although I agree that bigger is better when it comes to combiners, I do not agree that Devastator should be the biggest just because he's six bots combined...

Yes, he should be bigger than most for that reason, but Bruticus has helo/space shuttle arms (space shuttle as an arm needs updating to something less ridiculous IMO)...and as I mentioned above, Superion is freaking jets/planes...only combiner that should be bigger than Superion would be a Dinobot combiner, and even that I think would be best at almost the same size as Supe...
Zeitgeist
i love how the blacked out picture looks very much like the style of G1 transformation is mostly intact. the distinct jet parts on the back of the robots is win to me.

just make them all your combiners close to the same size tfc and everything will be all good...
TJ Duckett
I don't really go by real scale, since they're homages to G1 toys, so it really doesn't matter if planes are bigger than consturction vehicles for me. For me, I would've liked a Predaking that was slightly taller than Herc, and then the rest of the combiners scaled down appropriately around that. Because, right now, for TFC to release a proper scaled Predaking in comparison to Devy, he'd have to be 2' and something tall.

And that's bad how?

I get that most don't go by scale, it's much easy to accept and fit the scale mess that exists in TFs if you ignore that... but personally, the grown up in me can't ignore those kinda inconsistencies...it drives me bonkers...

Sorta like when I play superheroes with my nephew and he makes batman fly...NO NO NO NO!!!!

And on the subject of Predaking, he'd be the smallest of all combiners if I was in charge...he's made of freaking animals...hahaha
DethPike
I am totally onboard for not-Superion. Where do I sign? Can I preorder now?
