    The WeiJiang Computron's sword is just as big. It is comical how it is bundled with a 32cm combiner.

    Didn't even try it in Predakings hand. Honestly I was so depressed I just put the sword back in the package.

    However, the sword is pretty cheap plastic meaning that it's light-ish for how big it is. So he probably can hold it fine. There is a peg on the handle which might be able to plug into the fists. I use the DNA fists that have a sword slot, can't remember if the stock fists do or not.

    I keep waiting on getting them out and putting him together. I don't really have a spot for him right now and IDK who gets the new ratchets.

    You can get the one done by Shockwave's Lab. Don't think it splits into individual bot weapons.

    It takes some force, I found it easier to tab the lower parts first and then try to wiggle the top together afterwards.

    Here's some quick and dirty pics with the THF ko. The pegs on the handle get in the way of the hands but it would fit if you cut them off. No idea about KFC hands.

    Thanks a ton :D  . The kfc hands should be the same just articulated. The sword size works a bit better than expected for what i want to do with a bot his size with those hands.

    Without trying to insult anyone’s viewpoint or repeat a question, does anyone know if the toyhax stickers match up to anything on weijiang pred or would be worth purchasing? Thank you.

    I ended up going with another divebomb. Parts swap worked perfectly. Only thing i can't fix is the dam hip ratchets.



    Anybody got a fix to tighten up the hip ratchets?

    I received the sword today and I like the way it looks. A bit too big and heavy for Predaking to hold well. My issue is more with it moving in the hand and opening the fingers. Good thing it pegs in. The one thing I had a hard time finding was pictures of the individual weapons. Nothing to write home about, but have some pics anyway.

    And the hand with the sword pegged in.

    Got randomly interested in this guy after seeing a photo of him in the MMC Assaultus thread, what are the differences between this and the hasbro one? And is this compatible with the dna kit?

    I have the DNA Design sword (combiner sword) and the Shockwave Lab sword (one solid piece). Both are well done.

    I have a 3rd sword but that's a custom LED purple light saber I made to fit DNA Design's hands.

    DNA Design's combiner sword (splits into 4 swords and 1 war hammer) is on the left. Shockwave Lab sword is on the right (it is longer than the combiner sword).

    My custom LED saber (Predaking used a purple saber for like 2 seconds in G1)
