    I've always liked scorpions and similar, really hoping Beast Wars Scorponok is gonna be a thing someday.
    As for epoxy I have never used before, but i'll be sure to give it a shot in the close future, thank you! :O

    I just thought Nautilator was an interesting choice since Overbite is also a shark with limbs like Rippersnapper (and is in fact, a retool of Rippersnapper).

    Here is the post I mentioned regarding the possible epoxy fix. I haven't done it myself since my own Rippersnapper's combiner port is still fine, but it's possibly something I might need to do if and when the thing breaks. As mentioned, this is a rather concerning issue, since Rippersnapper being a combiner limb is his main gimmick, hoping that Overbite (which is a Rippersnapper retool) doesn't share this issue as it is a "premium figure".

    You could just get another Rippersnapper - bbts has him for $12. Whatever you do, ALWAYS sand down the pegs and do a test fit on something with a thicker port like CW Drag Strip before using 3p hands or feet. Every brand - PE, TCW, KO - has enough tolerance issues that breaking a port is a matter of when, not if, especially with ports that have thinner walls like Rippersnapper's.

    For the first time I could buy a kit for a combiner, and I choose Abominus,I wanted to know if this Perfect Effect has the more resistant fingers or other ones are better,I wouldn't that just touching lightly combiner,their little finger pieces fall all around.
    Then,for hands and feet is this the best kit?I had read that come Terrorcons could be damaged by feet.
