    ah so the entire eye piece comes out so painting the inside should be super simple. Totally doing that.

    Side note: seems this is my 50th post, Been on here almost 13 years and it took me this long to get to 50. The best part is the trophy description hopes that it took more then a day to reach 50 . . .well rest assured it did.

    I think it might be that since I had some issues on other sites at the time and wasn't doing a lot of marketplace stuff I just didn't need anything but the news. I really only started on this thread when it was apparent you guys had more accurate up to date info on this set. That being said I'm glad I did starting talking more, it's been fun seeing this beast come together and seeing everyone complete it too. *Raises glass* To the sword and possible upgrades lads.

    Yay, finally my Steelclaw is here. GJ, GiftLove, the box arrived in almost perfect condition. I only have doubts regarding that "beard" piece that attaches on the back of robot mode - shouldn't be there tab or clip on the top of red part to lock on the robot head in beast mode?

    Thanks, man :) . I was afraid that something is already broken (since there are traces of white plastic in that area, I guess it's only molding sprue :)  ). He looks really nice, though, he feels very light, especially gun :D . Everything tabs securely (big surprise because all other guys have "weak spots"), some parts too securely, I've popped combined mode head twice when I was trying to transform him into torso mode :D . I'm surprised that there are almost no molding sprues, at least in the bare sight :D .

    Is buying Razorclaw himself out of the question? It's only about $15 give or take, which is what one would expect to pay for a new noggin anyway.

    Is there really any need for the dna kit for this. Aren’t the wings already larger.

    The only thing I would say is needed would be the claws on the fingers, but even then, those claws aren't worth $50+modding.

    Got mine assembled today and I am impressed.
    I love my Gravity Builder and War Giant but something about the simplicity with this guy is certainly appealing.

    He definitely feels like the most playable combiner I own, at the very least I'm eyeing the other Hastak combiners.

    Probably not for the $17 you'd spent on buying one whole.

    So what’s a good price for the set? Hard to separate the gaugers from the scammers with the range I’m seeing on eBay.

    Finally combined, looks really great. Despite plastic quality similar to NBK KO of GT Gravity Builder feels much more solid - doesn't have that floppy feel. Everything tabs securely (except wing on Sabretooth side), all ratchets are nice and tight (with replacement installed on Sabretooth) :) . "Prime Master" is garbage (they even removed peg holes on the bottom of its feet), but I don't care about it. LEDs work the way everyone described, I'll wait till someone mods the head and shares pictures to decide if I will paint it or not :) .
    I would take some pictures and post them but my phone died and I have to put up with some old Samsung Galaxy which doesn't take acceptable quality pictures.
