    Despite having Bruticus, I'm loving this set a lot more than I thought.

    They're an amazing looking group :cool:

    Dammit... Just when I finally stop thinking about an mp jrx, or at least a cw/uw/tr version, someone calls it out and the dream begins again. :lol

    I think he's already pretty good - I doubt a new version would improve on him. There was lots of room for improvement on Ruination because he was made from re-used G1 molds. But JRX was a modern mold.

    I think Sky-Byte is a great example of what you would get with an updated Rail Team. Does some things better, does some things worse.

    I would kill for an upscaled JRX that would fit with the combiner wars scale.

    Finally pulled the trigger on this. Can't wait for it (and Tokyo toy show black convoy) to arrive.

    While I've had to store this guy for now, are there any tips to strengthen the tolerances of Mega Octane / Dolrailer's knees? They are far too loose for my liking.

    Still overjoyed this became a reality!

    They're great!

    I threw together this group shot for the Black Convoy thread, and I realized how badly I needed some flight stands so I finally caved and got some... all because of this group :lol

    Yeah the set is such a great capstone on top of Unite Warriors. I hope we get a Takara Tomy mall Brave Max to stand against them one day.

    That brilliant gold used for Mega Dorailer's combined mode torso alone is worth it. Lol.

    Oh man , the color choices blow my mind ... It`s so Greek but militant while simultaneously meshing colors that all most create a brand new color , fracking weird ..lol... more than adore these characters , as well the toy`s ect ..... When RID hit it was like a brand new G1 ... it had that feeling but with a touch of every thing past ..... over all just great....All the gestalts just rocked .
