    I will -definitely- grab one of these. I always liked the look of the TW original, but its unstable nature put me off, plus it was a bit out of my budget-range anyway. This ticks all the right boxes: less expensive, and improved.

    If I was still collecting CHUG scale, and I really wanted Dino’s that were bigger than the POTP versions, I think the new Zeta dinos would be my pick.

    That was from TW, not Zeta. And the TW reissue of the original green is due out next week.

    Zeta has said that they're going to do it with their re-release, FWIW.

    Only had chance to try the legs so far. It’s a slide system now for the Zeta dinos.

    I’m honestly shocked to see anyone still trying to improve this set. I tried for months to make it better. Even created custom parts for the knees to better help it’s A stance. Nothing worked for me. The more I tried to fix the more things fell apart.

    It’s a shame cause the individual bots were great CHUG representations.

    Only reason I'm buying the new set is for the individual bots
