    Personally I'm very excited for the Ironhide, and overall prefer their Hound over MT's (assuming they fix the gap between the shoulders and the torso).

    I'd be all over any version of Omega Supreme.

    All we have for GCreation's dino combiner is a render so this is just speculation, but the working theory is that his head will reach the bottom of Generations Metroplex's chest. The next biggest combiner is Warbotron's Bruticus (approximately Utopia height) and it seems it will reach around the middle of Shuraking's chest.

    Looking forward to seeing you guys complete Prometheus. Might be my next combiner if there are no surprises in qc. He sounds really solid so far.

    Haha just saw Hasbro's take on defensor. Man i feel bad for them. Bound by legalities and red corporate tape.

    It almost feels like they have the potential but are being held back from making truly wonderful products.

    So happy to have 3p options. Might still buy them all minus devy cause they are cheap and can be easily customized into other things. Was thinking of doing a military patrol micro master combiner using a mix of cw superion and bruticus, but this is not the place for that kind of talk...

    MORE PICTURES OF PROMETHUS!!:lol

    I think I'm out, from what I've seen of the Hasbro Defensor, it addresses a lot of what I was looking for in a Protectobot team, and he won't be taller than Devastator or Superion now.

    Prometheus still looks good though, hope you guys enjoy!

    i got these laying around.. i was playing around with trying to take a good picture... its hard to get a good one of Prometheus here. the space between his chest and thighs gets muddied some how lost in shadow very easily

    looking forward to the eventual tfc version of bruticus and menasor, would also love to see raiden done as steam trains, but just to see him done alone would be pretty sweet and lio kaiser to

    Nice pictures! so tempted to get warbotrons bruticus but...

    ...^that. I just think that TFC's take would be stellar and with the progress they've made with combiners until now, a more refined better product than warbos.

    Just got to hold out, avoid that thread like the plague. Those recent shots of onslaught nearly had me throwing money at my screen.

    Fingers crossed for Menasor! I really dig TFC's Designs. Although Warbotron is still in my View. They aslo have a Menasor incoming!
