    They're often inaccurate. I was looking specifically for the timetable of upcoming FT releases but I got my answer regardless.

    How about a Battleruiser "operational". Mothership works too. :p 

    Anyways, would likely go in storage anyways, as i seriously doubt they could turn it into something useful.

    That's the Ronald Reagan, so quite appropriate for an 80's-based group of jets...

    I expect it to turn into a nice pile of plastic parts on everyone’s floor.

    It's kind of dumb if it turns to something cause then the design will be compromise from just hips and legs...you'll have folded up parts like a butt flap or something just like how DX9 Capone trailer looks like shit for their Menasor body with fold lines everywhere.
    I hate that FT is also making the extra trailer for Roadking turn into the Menasor body. Just do what Zeta did.

    Don’t the extra parts from Zeta combiners transform into things? Could’ve sworn the Bruticus pants become a weapon base.

    the only annoying thing about these FT combiner releases for me is i'm only buying for bot mode. So if the 'last limb bot has everything combiner but costs same as Maverick (or more)' is the case, then it's a bit meh spending that cash for something i won't even use.

    eg Goose was £98 and Maverick £149.99 at Kapow...so i'd rather be able to pay another £98 just for the final limb bot and not have leftover stuff, than £149.99 for it all. If FT then did a release of the combiner parts for about £50 then people would still end up paying roughly 'same as Maverick' for the whole thing if they want it.

    Be cool if FT gave that option, and yes i know a separate release would likely cost FT more in storage and packaging etc etc so it probably won't happen.

    I think XTB may have right idea with their Motormaster and having the trailer separate.

    Probably thinking of Warbotron's bruticus. That one had the hips become a trailer while the other stuf became a launch pad. I actually bought the OS version and its pretty cool to have a launchpad for blast off. Tho at the MP scale they are doing these MP combiners, I wouldn't recommend it for stability and looks.

    I agree, I want a clean combined form.

    FT is the way bc you can trust them to be closest to TT in quality so the more the merrier. I rather have cartoon accuracy better quality no matter transforming accuracy that stems from the G1 toy which could not stand well. I'd rather have a full fledge combined with alternate pieces than a ccf of a struggling combiner.

    I didn't think we were getting Air Raid's cocky-rear this fast :) 

    If all goes to plan the next two selections of the 3rd gestalt pieces will be in Fall 2020.

    Thanks. I might try that route. How easy is it to open up his hips like that? I don't want to fucked up anything.

    Sadly it seems like there's no way to tighten the ankles :(

    It's easy just remove the screws from the thigh and then the one on the slider piece inside the thigh
