    Yeah. Brawl is somewhat have a weird torso. But as combiner mode, he's a stable leg.
    I have CW Bruticus and he's the one of the stable combined mode along with CW Superion.
    I could the same thing with CW Defensor (which I didn't own) since Hotspot shares engineering with Onslaught.

    I never had CW Menasor but I really hate the proportions they given him in his combiner mode.

    Rippersnapper's guns were on the side, and thus the wrong way up, in the packaging on my toys. A quick search online shows them wrong on the packaging stock photo too as they are in the first post. Swapping them round, with the sight on the top of the barrel, gives a small platform at the back with a peg for the Titanmaster to stand on.

    I think the Terrorcons are going to be the stars overall of this line, which G1 Dinobots (though probably not their combined mode) coming in second. Most people don't seen to care for Volcanicus, and I'm still on the fence about him, but I love having an abominus. 4/5s of the original (never could find Cutthroat), and I am loving the updates.

    Hun-Gurrr got here a few days ago. Got the shipment notice for Rippersnapper yesterday with an estimated delivery of...sometime between the 16th and the 23rd x.x

    My first experience with any of the CW style combiners. Loved Hun-Gurrr and cannot wait to give Abominus his left arm.

    UPC/EAN barcode list for modern Transformers toys

    this might help you. I'd suggest bookmarking it, yo. I did when I found it. It's been useful at saving me gas, lol

    Dammit I want this figure so bad. Besides looking like a fantastic looking and functioning figure, the nostalgia factor is through the roof for me personally.

    Rippersnapper and Sinnertwin are probably two of my most wanted figures from this line.

    He's very nice, first deluxe I've gotten in a while that actually looks/feels like he's worth the price. Great paint, simple but solid design. Perfect G1 update.

    My Rippersnapper came in from Amazon today. Goodness gracious this figure is cool. I'm not usually into beast alt modes, but Abominus was one of the only combiners I had as a kid, so I got POTP Hun-gurrr to test the waters and immediately knew I had to get the limbs. This first of the Terrorcon deluxes just knocks it out of the park. The paint, the sculpt, the simple but fun engineering, it's all good. I love the way his tail pieces slot into his robot legs. I love the slight grimace on his face. I love the faux rub symbol. I love that they painted his shark teeth AND the inside of his mouth.

    I love Rippersnapper.

    Speaking of Sinnertwin, his necks are articulated this time around right? It looks like they are, obviously not as well as Hun-Gurrr's, but I can't quite tell.

    Still waiting on Rippersnapper. My shipment has literally not shown any movement since Wednesday and it's kinda starting to irritate me.

    Your guess is as good as mine about Sinnertwin.

    As for Rippersnapper, look on the bright side my friend. Though frustrating, at least he's on order and will be there eventually. Congrats to that.

    From what I've seen, Sinnertwin has two hinges on each neck, one at the base connecting to the body, and the other at the head. Possibly a balljoint? idk the figure isn't at an optimal angle.

    And I know that feeling. I've had a package get stuck in Ohio for 7 days once when I ordered Overlord....

    Were the abominus limbs your first combiner limbs too? Ripprsnapper was my first combiner figure as a kid. This new one gives me the warm and fuzzies.

    My brother and I had all of the Abominus limbs except Blot. So we were able to make an Abominus missing his right arm. Although I don't recall ever assembling the Terrorcons that way.
