    Call it an MP or UW, doesn't matter. We've got ourselves a big bad bot who may be same size or taller than Devastator depending on confirmation on individual size classes

    Wasn't there some discussion as to whether or not this was going to be CHUG scale? If it'll fit with the Combiner Wars guys, I might bite. But I'm afraid of the price.

    Hoping they release one at a time and are less than $100 each… Not likely, but one can hope.

    One at a time, probably (one per every 2-3 months) and based on other MPs I’m hoping under 200.

    If they keep them small enough and not as many fiddly bits, then they could be Skids priced. Pipe dream, I know..

    As someone who's been collecting the MMC combiners, I'm all in on a Masterpiece combiner around the size of Unite Wrriors Devy. Hopefully we get to see some official reveal shots soon instead of a probably mistransformed leak.

    This all day.

    After seeing combiners that don't have the added thighs, chest, and hips, MMC's Bruticus seems to be a more accurate depiction of scale. By extension, this includes CW Devy, TR Predking, and even Feral Rex.

    As far as releases go, I'm kinda sick of waiting a full year to acquire all of the components for one combiner (or even longer thanks to Fanstoys). Just release them all together, please HasTak. Show these 3P companies how it should be done!

    Since they are doing raiden (and providing it’s really good) I hope TT does other masterpiece combiners.

    Looks really good so far, can't wait to see more.

    As long as they are combiners that we don't already have (Dinoking/Monstructor, Road Caesar, Landcross), I'd be ok with that. With rumors that Legacy is redoing the Stunticons, I am not too thrilled at the idea of Hasbro/TT doing the same combiners all over again.

    Yeah I wasnt thrilled about new Stunticons either. I was thinking the same thing. But since my Takara Menasor Has the Perfect Effect upgrades and Renderform weapons, I keep forgetting how horrible CW Menasor looked without upgrades. Those damn cow horns, what were they thinking ? If they ever get to making a CHUG Raiden, Id buy it, but damn for MP scale Im suprised Takara picked the most boring combiner of them all to be the first offical MP scale combiner. Trainbots lol. They should have just gone with Devastator and make the first combiner their first MP Combiner.
