    my opinion- the purple set isn't worth it. the feet look fat and swollen and the hands look spindly. The Bruticus set however, is way nicer and I would buy them again in any color offered. The balljoint tolerance for the feet is way better and bruticus just looks badass. The hands look better too but i think they are the same size. I think the more squared fingers give the illusion they are bigger but it makes a difference. It's really a matter of opinion 100%. if you like how it looks buy it, if you don't like how it looks, don't buy it.

    Hi guys, I'm new to the forum, may I ask where can I get my hands on the Superion Galvatronus Thigh Filler Upgrade? I clicked on the link but it seems that it's all sold out, am I now stuck with the awkwardly thin thigh for my superion? Thanks!

    Someone made these on shapeways.
    You can find them here:

    I saw those ones on shapeways a while ago, but they are unpainted, I didn't buy it because I didn't want to paint it myself....

    Nonnef will probably do another run of those thigh bits. I'd just email him.

    I didn't get the ones for Superion or Defensor, but got both kits for Menasor. Made a huge difference and now I love that figure. Made me order both kits for Bruticus even though I'm getting the UW version.

    Anyone know if Perfect Combiner PC-03 works color wise (the chest piece) with Takara Superion?

    Cool, the Inverted Autobot Symbol and the gaping hole in the abdomen bug the hell out of me.

    I love the PE kits and now own several of them. Got an email that the white kit was back in stock but by the time I went to pay for it it had already sold out!

    Come on PE, make these in larger quantities!

    Also holding out hope for a gold set to go with Sky Reign.

    Flip the panel down on Silverbolt's torso when going into combined mode.

    I wish they would make some shoulder locks for Menasor.
