    Megatron wasn't too thrilled to find out either

    Well then I hope everyone will be satisfied with Inferno coming next. He’s top of my list at the moment.

    I would love an inferno so much. He was such a fansastic character, and having different faces would be so wonderful.

    An opening mouth in robot mode would be an absolute must.

    Wow that was a long wait indeed. I’m looking at it one way at the moment and that is the longer the wait the more thrilled I’ll be when I get him :D 

    As for who I’d like next that would have to be terrorsaur. Mainly because we need more preds and ever since dinobot was announced and made his way into our homes it’s making me want to see how takara will tackle such a design/transformation :D 

    Who’s your most wanted?

    I want to say both, as both are thorough. Wotafa is great: I understand what he's doing even though I don't speak Japanese. And Emgo is entertaining to me.

    They are both great. Wotafa is un-naturally gentle with his figures using hand muscles I never knew existed. Emgo has MP models that just fall into place supernaturally. I try to do exactly what he does but my models just don't cooperate!
    Both are great as they both find fine points in transformations. I would watch both before attempting to transform such expensive figures.

    Ok. I’ll check his out. Seems like there might be a couple of spots for potential danger. Haven’t had a chance to transformation due to work. Thanks for the feedback

    I mean I'll take pretty much anything BW they put out, Inferno is OK, I'm way more interested in getting scorponok or terrasaur atm for preds, and airazor or rhinox for maxies.

    Also just finished season 1 and totally forgot that black arachnias had a silver variant in the arc with the floating island/tower, basically a shadow panther scheme, I imagine that will be coming at some point

    Mine just arrived today. Not ashamed to say that I’ll be watching things before making any attempts to transform him.

    I agree both are my favourite YouTube reviewers, but neither of them have posted Tigatron reviews yet. Actually I’ve noticed that many of the usual reviewers haven’t posted yet. Makes me wonder if they are skipping this release. Wotafa never did Blackarachnia as far as I know.

    I love almost destroying a $200+ figure because I put too much floor polish in the eyes. All but gored the inside of the Tiger head trying to pry them out. One had to be cut free, the other mangled just trying to reach the pin. Unless you really know what you’re doing I have to caution against tightening the eyes. Mine fused and I’m thankful all the damage I caused isn’t visible once the scalp is closed, but fuck if I’m not bummed that I had to do this to such an expensive collectible. Should’ve just left the eyes loose, as I’m really no closer to “fixing” them.

    That sucks man. I’m just about to take mine out of his plastic prison, sounds like I’ll be leaving things as they are...

    Just finished another transformation, love it love it love it! Legs are definitely the "Master"Piece section. For those hating that the eyes are so loose, I took to small balls of Blu tac and put them on top of the pin, set them and the gently pushed down on em, adds enough friction that that won't spin too freely, but is easily remove able

    Anyone else have loose arm panel? I wish they locked in more like cheetors, also the knee design is... Confusing, I don't need such soft outward movement on beast modes hind legs..
