    Does the main color more pitch black or has it a green tint to it? From your pictures it looks more like the toy is a sea of black.

    Seraph's R-11, so I'd assume it come with him. I guess these comics don't really need a narrative order?

    Huh, you know you didn't make me realize till just now but he actually does indeed have an incredibly subtle green tint to him. At least I think, its so subtle its kinda hard to be certain.

    Here he is next to mt nemesis who definitely has a pure black for most of his dark parts and their is certainly a difference although mts figure is very matte while mmc's is much more glossy:

    Hopefully we can get an eye patch head a little later on down the road, with another figure like jagertron. Keep bringing on those awesome decepticons MMC!!

    I see what you mean. Since you just noticed it now I assume the tone will be very (very very very) subtle in hand. I had hoped for a more pronounced green tint. :(

    Waiting on my supplier to get this before I decide.

    I want this, I really do, as for me this is the superior look / use of the mold, just worried if it will be too dark to see anything when not in day time, and if MMC will make another recolor using this same mold one day, and will that recolor be to my liking, though I don't think I can wait for that day. Also wondering if I get one dark scheme, should it be this, or an eventual Seraph one (getting the white Core one for sure).

    He has very strongly angled parts and a glossy reflective surface and little areas of color where it matters most.

    You'd be surprised just how visible he is under any lighting conditions I think. I have him barely lit by a lamp that is in no way pointed at him a good meter away from where he stands and I can still make out plenty of his molded details despite the rest of my room being very dark.

    The slug tank looks much better with a traditional round cannon instead of Impactor's signature cannon.
    I'm tempted and I almost wish I passed on Impactor so I could buy this iteration instead, but I think I'll wait it out.

    R-01 = Terminus Hexatron
    R-02 = Talon
    R-03 = Bovis
    R-04 = Leo Dux
    R-05 = Fortis
    R-06 = Tigris
    R-07 = Felisaber
    R-08 = Azalea
    R-09 = Eupatorium
    R-10 = Salvia Prominon
    R-11 = Seraphicus Prominon
    R-12 = Cynicus
    R-13 = Spartan
    R-14 = Commotus
    R-15 = Jaegertron
    R-16 = Anarchus
    R-17 = Carnifex
    R-18 = Kultur

    The comics are numbered the same as the Reformatted numerical order so, yes, Seraphicus is Issue 11.

    So seraph was intended to be released before the 12-14 guys then I assume? man he really was hit by massive delay after massive delay.

    I bet we'll get jaegertron before him too, so that'll be issue 15 out before 11 haha.

    But sure the stories are self contained, I just get ocd about this kind of thing. Its one of those side incentives to me owning every single main line reformatted figure and I think the way Im going I certainly will.

    An idea for MMC after I learned Turmoil has had both a full visor (which theirs is based on) head design and a broken eye head design in the comics:

    [​IMG]

    The latter of which I'd have much preferred to see them go with. I'd also love to see some silver/metalic grey paint applied to his faceplate too.

    The wait for this Guy is biting. Does the eye-patch face/Head not come with him?

    No that's why I've suggested it to them as a consideration for the future cause it'd be cool to see.

    Very tempting. I enjoy this mold so much I have to get Turmoil too.
    And, looks like this was the intended character for the mold, with the roundish canon completing the metal slug tank homage. MMC learned well from HasTak to pull this:)

    His trophy case is jam packed with content as is, their is literally no room for anything else. So I wouldn't bet on it.

    Like the new feralcon heads its just something cool I could maybe see them planning to do for the future. They could include it with their Cyclonus or their Obsidian or whatever figure they feel could use a little added value.
