    So do we all.

    I don't think so, he doesn't need clawed feet IMO, just some big ol' stompin' boots to crush Decepticons under and those do that job just nicely. Then again different strokes for different fokes.

    They only combined 1 time ever in the story..( excl new bot stuff like combiner wars and fwd) It was a catastrophe in the story because the Dinobots are too strong willed and opoosing in opinions. ( Many people hated the story branch too. ) They turned into, "The Beast" which is one reason I like Shuraking. He looks like the beast-ish in some depictions. I also really like the Shuraking head sculpt.. all those guys for that matter.

    I have the whole set, only transformed into combined mode, that I'll unload if anyone wants.

    I had many problems with my shuruking falling down due to weight issues. Already got replacement for the hips. Stuck as many foot stickers on his feet. But still managed to top over. My solution is to put him on a stand or a flight base. Too bad there is no such thing that can hold this monstrosity. I am so ready to make my own by getting something like a piece of wood, screws and hacksaw. Anyone that has already done please share. I have already taken my shuraken appart until this stability is fixed.

    Just a standard A stance will be safe. Mine has no added grips stuck on the feet and stands ok on glass.

    Shuraking needs a revisited release (less partsforming and improved locking mechanisms), it's the best Dinobot combiner to date imo.

    How does Grimlock stack up as an individual figure? I like the look of him a lot, just curious if he’s big enough for MP scale.

    The limbs are tall voyagers, but their Grimlock is about the same height as MP-08. Which, despite actually being an MP, is too small for MP.

    Yeah I feel like MP-08 is too small. I’d like Grimlock a head taller then OP/ Megs.

    I guess, but it wouldn't fix the other issue I have with the set.

    Surely they could fix those too? Jb does do mods to improve.

    Honestly, at that point, it'd be easier to start over. The engineering was needlessly complicated at times, and the way they used partsforming made little sense. For example, the combined mode head is attached to their Grimlock, and when he's in robot mode it's stored in the dino neck. But the dino neck is translucent, and the combined mode head comes out of the neck for dino mode, and to keep the translucent neck from being empty you insert these two gold pieces that serve literally no other purpose. Meanwhile, the entire chest and parts of the pelvis of the combined mode is a separate partsforming bit. Which begs the question, if they were going to use so much partsforming, why not have made the combined mode head a partsforming piece and skipped the dino neck filler?

    In any case, I thought that the individual modes were pretty cool (if a pain to transform sometimes), but the combined mode was such a mess (and this is coming from someone who also owned the ToyWorld Dinobots) that I decided I wouldn't bother combining them anyway. So I took Grimmy apart and removed the combined mode head. Maybe a year later I put him back together and sold off the whole set.

    Question, I have Zeta's Rerelease of DinoKong. However trying to get this guy (Shuraking, today is pretty much about 700 dolars, cheapest that I can find). Is it worth it? I mean is it such a good product as to qualify for that amount of money?
