    I feel you on the ACAB front, but i do like that the rest of Defensor is all first responders? I just gave my CW Streetwise and Rook a lick of red paint to be a fire marshal and a...uhhhh medical APC respectively. Groove gets a pass cus he is a pacifist.

    I had two threads open at the same time, and jumping to different pages within threads, and both threads were talking about Menasor. Plus, the title of the thread isn't visible when you're checking alerts and going straight to a post. You only see it if you scroll all the way to the top and then go back down again. Plus, I was drifting in and out of sleep at 4:25am and went right to bed after it and crashed. This lock down junk has my sleep schedule all messed up.

    Can you show a G1 Prime in Cab mode next to it? It's hard to get an idea of its size without a good reference point.

    It hasn't been released yet, so custom comparison pics aren't available.

    Whoops. I missed that they asked for G1 Prime.

    No-Can-Do in that department.

    However, as a point of reference, MST Optimus in alt mode is 3.7cm from ground to top of the truck cab. @Ultra Magnus Combiner will have to do the leg work in figuring out how big G1 OP is in alt.

    For a nice little Menasor to display everywhere appears a very good solution I'm very interested for combiner mode above all.
    I wonder if 4 limbs at this point will suffer delay,they're announced on June on some shops but pics are still protypes.

    The preorders are a couple of years old now. Many sites just push back missed dates, June would be the end of 2Q 2020, so I'm guessing that is what they used.

    Thanks for the info :)  ,I was hoping that project was near conclusion seeing both shops and this topic proceeding a lot more in last months, and that their Motormaster was not distant but were just rumours, at this point.

    Yes. Who knows when, MS has been dragging their heels in these for years now.

    Prowl and Smokescreen MIGHT be first. The other 2 Datsuns and the Stunticons are the only ones we've seen at least Prototypes for (assuming they don't have another dozen Optimus repaints planned)

    Well they did clearly redesign Motormaster, the video a few pages ago shows both old and new next to each other. Waiting is annoying, but getting the better figure in the end is worth it.

    we wont get a better figure from MS and the odds are someone else is going to come in and steal their customers with a better bot. MS did not even do anything but copy the dx9 menasor. i am sure there are milds being made from other companies as we speak.

    just look at what NA has done to position themselves as the number 2 legends brand.

    if MS would have been smarter there would be no NA or even need for them. but like they say you snooze you lose.

    Protectobots 4 life!

    Only combiner I had as a kid, so he's the only one I'm invested in nostalgia-wise. I also think he's one of the best looking combiners.

    Appears that their Motormaster prototype seen in last pages should be very recent but I fear that a release of first limbs won't happen at least before November . Unlike Bruticus, Menasor has still no legend treatment and waiting for this,only good choice seems G1 Menasor ,blocky but better proportioned that CW without kit.
