    I have to say... I'm still digging this figure. I'm not 100% on some of the aesthetics of the combined mode, and he could use more articulation, but I'm still impressed by the build quality.

    He's been sitting on my TV shelf, and he doesn't wobble or worry me that he's going to fall off the shelf. When I pick up the combined mode, there's no floppiness at all. The whole thing holds its form firmly, no rattling or shaking, even if I swing him around a bit. None of the CW combiners are that sturdy. Even counting all the 3P stuff I have, only POTP Predaking comes close to the joint stability of this figure.

    Going off a post from YouTube on translating the names of the individual vehicles:

    Nosecone: Base Breaker 破垒
    Scattershot: Spur Thunder 棘雷
    Strafe: Critical Strike 爆擊
    Lightspeed: Wind Flame 風焰
    Afterburner: Lighting Lock 電鎖

    I checked these with several translators, and it's open to interpretation, but that's basically right.

    The sword is just silly, I wonder if WJ had wanted to do a crossover purchase type of thing with their Predaking until they made its own sword.

    Maybe the Warbotron X-Ray gun that comes with their Shockwave (or in the KO KBB Waveblaster) would be a fit for this Computron.

    So from what I can tell the swords are not intended for this figure at all. They have 5mn handles, but the figures have staged 6mm/4mm grips. Impossible to use hold the swords well.

    I think I missed this, but where could I buy this as a set? Also someone on this thread said they were using him as their Nexus Prime, and now I just wanted to say thanks so much, now I can’t get that idea out of my head, which means I’m gonna eventually get it

    Will be way too small compared to those. This guy is more on similiar size with hasbro CW/POTP combiners.

    Why does it say 17 modes?

    Are the limbs interchangeable?

    General purpose combiners are nice, but articulation is lacking due to no waist swivels.
