    Hello all, I just received the double cannons and their handles from an awesome board member here. Would anyone with the accessory pack be able to post pictures of the instructions showing the combined gun form of the car double cannons? Also a pic of how the handles attach to each double cannon (or at least Dead End's)? I was able to sort out the other 3 but I'm not sure if I have DE's correct. I did find a picture of the combined gun mode but I only found the one pic and it's not clear how they all go together. Any additional pictures would be very much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

    It won't do you any good. It's a black and white slightly blurry photo. It took me nearly as long to figure that out as to transform the trailer. Look at BSF's review, he shows it.

    Thanks for that. I don't usually watch his videos so I hadn't even thought of looking for one.

    just for fun, I was able to attach mp12 sides wipe to menasors right leg since he is the same size as breakdown. mp12 is lighter in weight

    We need more awesome members on these boards. I’ll send you pics in morning.

    Still loving the shit out if this Menasor. Was thinking about grabbing the youth version breakdown for the whiter color.

    I would really like to get a set of the youth cars. The XTB combined form just looks so good, but I also have FT Roadking and the youth cars would look great with him in alt (or bot mode) in front of Menasor.

    i have the original Armageddon and it’s pretty trashy but the metallic Bruticon is a huge step up in quality and a great value. I have MMC for Combaticons and if FT does the set Id prob keep the bruticon and move the Mmc.

    There's really that much of a difference? I've been bouncing back and forth on options for this set, and I definitively do not like the first, toy-accurate set with blue legs.

    It's night and day. Bruticon is Zeta Kronos stable. Def skip Armageddon unless you love the deco. They appeared to strip the weight down, improve the swindle knee connection and balance is much better by removing play in the waist area.

    The original was so bad I had to spend 40 on 3D printed parts to hold the leg bots on. tolerances were brutal on all of the bots really.

    I bought Bruticon mostly for the cartoon accurate pants but every bot was a huge step up in quality and the combiner is much more stable top to bottom. I was so impressed that I ordered the Metallic Superion to replace my original Zeta one as well.

    How does V1 Armageddon compare to V1 Kronos? I have V1 Kronos and am satisfied with its build.

    I have heard that transforming the trailer is an absolute delight but damn do the Stunticons look great in alt mode.

    Yeah xtransbots seem to the best looking set of all three in alt mode except for breakdown due to lack of paint.

    I’ve been holding out on the mmc set (for bot mode) in case FT does them too.

    Huh. Didn’t know that. Still ugly though. I hope xtb releases a properly painted one. Until then ft has the best looking breakdown in alt mode. Also does anyone here remember that time xtransbots photoshopped their motormaster to look like he wasn’t too big for the carbots in their promo pics?
