    *Sigh* And this is the new face FT promised for Tesla? Good grief. What is the deal FT? This new face is marginally better than the first, but that's not saying much.

    Of course I will be buying Lupus, so I will get this amazing new face. Lucky me. I sure hope FT can refine this some more. At this point, though, I feel as if we are venturing into Michael Jackson plastic surgery territory....

    I like everything about it, except the face.

    What I find surprising is that the three new dino faces are huge improvements but this replacement seems like it was done by a totally different designer.

    I actually think they look like the exact same style and therefore I assumed it was the same designer. I think the pictures we can see are unflattering. The lighting seems off. The new face may be bad, but I'm not sure we can totally tell based on the pictures we have.

    I'm quite happy with him as is, I'm not seeing a need for a new face and especially that trainwreck of one. UGH.

    No kidding and where is the toy face for Soar? I am good with Silver blah faces. More silver generic blah faces. Awesome tons of enjoyment, oooh I made the chin more pronounced and rounded the eyes. These toys are so fun.

    I was waiting to see this sculpt to purchase Tesla. Alas. Sad, because their other new faces are good to great.

    I hope the faces can be bought separately, similar to what MMC did for the Predacons. I'd find it insulting if I couldn't. =/

    Haha that doesn't exactly good at all.

    As for the new face, it's definitely a step backwards IMO.

    I get that Tesla's face ain't great, but if y'all want ugly look at black series Poe Dameron.

    Black series actually has really good headsculpts it's the Hasbro paintjob that ruins them.

    I find it so strange FT would include Perceptor's face with this guy, what's the connection, it's not like the dinos where one will be more than likely to buy the next one if he's already bought the others? Or is this guy coming out soon that FT felt they could do it? Im baffled, I don't think think this is a good move, hopefully, like with Sever's thingy it will be available to the masses after the first run or so.

    I have a feeling this guy will be coming out very soon, I just hope he isn't Perceptor kind of quality, he felt very rushed.

    I just noticed something about this guy's colour scheme, it's very, very similar to Sinnertwin's.

    Not a character I'm particularly excited about but I think I will be adding him to my collection. I'm really happy in this new route FT has taken...exciting times ahead folks!
