    So you just want it done without any regards for the practicalities of it? Do you have a feasible idea on how to made a bigger leg transform into a smaller leg without being ridiculously over-engineered?

    That's not a strongman, that's a body builder. A strongman is like The Mountain from Game of Thrones

    ;)  If only one of the MP Grimlocks had these proportions. Instead they look like the body builder and have disproportionate shoulders! They all have them sitting too high! - They should not sit higher on Superator than on Guttur imo.

    Thanks. Arms look slightly retooled to add mass and length. Shoulders moved slightly higher it seems. Maybe head sculpt changed a bit as well.

    The only real differences other than the head I see are that the the chest plate details and abdomen are different. It appears the chest is wider and my guess is that was necessary to fill out the bottom area of dino mode.

    Grimlock should be a giant boulder of a robot. Accept no substitutes.

    Thanks. The legs looks better when they are all in grey. I think the half brown/black model give it an illusion of skinny leg.

    Tge arms though does look too thick and long for its body

    It might be different in hand. I looked at my Reximus and his arms are also long. Going to just above his knees. It definitely looks like they bulked up his arms and chest. I'm not crazy about it. Makes his lower body look undersized when my complaint about the original prototype was about his lean legs.

    Just a custom Guttur.

    He appears to be "floating" in the throne because his pelvis is angled and all it's resting on is that screw bump.

    It looks like this one is the same as the previous testshot. Yea it does feel different, but its probably just the different colors and maybe ackwardly taken photos (angle, lighting, zoom,... can play tricks on our eyes).

    I can't work out if his chest is widger now or if that's just the angles?

    Also, it's hard not to get excited with their progress, but we did see full colour seemingly complete Gaudenter prototypes two years before he finally saw release.

    I'm super jelly of those handpainted "metallic" Gigasaurs that Gigapower keep using in pictures.

    I think they are all the same, honestly. Except in the left hand most picture, the head is a bit small.

    Quick and dirty? Takara's all ready to recruit you for the MP line... they just have digitally sand away the details to see if it still holds up.

    It does look good. I still prefer the dinobots in diaclone colours though.

    Hmm. I like the design in the left better.

    However, these are dinobots, and the real premium (for me) is in the alt modes
