    Yeah. Please no stupid, pointless electronics and no stupid pointless Tankor repaint. Just, no MMC. Please do a Tankor, but use a more appropriate mold and not just one that has treads as feet being the ONLY THING IN COMMON with him.

    We've known for a while now that Helex is in the pipe. If you look further back in this thread, I believe it's this thread, there are renders of him posted. He's a retool of this guy.

    What. Lol no Helex and Tesarus are completely different designs that share no parts whatsoever.

    His thread is here: Mastermind Creations Mors (Helex) When he gets iterated on his updates will be in that thread.

    Tesarus was only started late last year. Helex was started in early 2016.

    I know, but Helex has never been more than a render, while we saw a 3D print of Tesaurus earlier this year and now here's the show sample piece. Helex was announced in like 2015, and implied ever since they started on the DJD, so forgive a guy for getting a bit antsy.

    Any idea on exactly how tall he is? I've been waiting on putting some shelves together until I know how much space I need to fit him and Helex.

    This. Need more info asap. I’m purchasing a house but if he doesn’t look right in the corner I have picked out, well, I’m gonna negotiate down the price.

    I'm not sure if there's any variability in how his lower legs transform, but his shins are "longer" on the physical prototype. You can see more tread exposed. So yeah, he seems a bit taller there. In the rendered line-up, Tesarus' knees are lower than Kultur's pointy kneecaps, but on the physical model, they're definitely higher.

    Whoa! In order to get this into my house, I’m going to tell the wife that it’s a juicer.

    “Look honey, I’m trying to be healthier for the new year!”
