regardless of this whole discussion I highly doubt TFC will suddenly change scale when they have like half of all of the combiners released in pretty much the same scale

 

So TFC does remember this is a thing, right?

 

yeah

according to their Weibo Hungrrrr (however you spell that dudes name) is being redesigned

 

The post I quoted below has a screenshot of TFC's last comment about it from 12/16/2021 and a translation of the post. Waiting sucks, but at least they have said something rather than just leave everyone hanging in the dark.

 

Hmm, looks some of the tiny black joint covers may have come off Astaroth.

Not a big deal, just annoying 



Honestly, I think those are I'd want to paint a matching blue.

 

on one hand that sucks n i hope u can fix it

on the other i hate you for giving me hope there was a pic of hungrrr

 

In best George Costanza voice - “These notifications are making me thirsty!”lol

 

Anyone experiencing similar (regarding the little black dots over the joints, I mean)?

 

I know it’s been said before, but it’s a little disturbing that we haven’t even seen good renders of Hun-Grr. At least with GT, they tortured us with images of Foo Fighter for 5 years. But this much time with all four limb bots already out…..

 

well, at least GT finally released it now.

Right. But my point was that they’ve been teasing images of that all along. All four TFC limb bots have been out for a while now, with no sign of Hun-Grr.

 

Yeah, even quite a few people asked on TFC weibo "please at least show us the 1st round grey mold", TFC didn't bother with anything revealed.

 

I get the impression TFC is a much less consumer-friendly as opposed to the likes of say, Fans Hobby or MMC

 

IIRC TFC admitted they completely scrapped what they had for Hun-Gurr and started over. Pretty sure they might not even have any prototypes yet in any compacity, probably back to drawings at this point.

 

That’s what worries me:/
All this time, and they don’t really have a plan. I suspect that they are trying to make him larger, because the 15 and 16 inch Combiners are dead. If that’s the case, the most they could hope to get out of him, is the 17 inch range- like UT and MMC. But it is sooooo late in the game for them to scrap something and start over. I feel like I bought something sight-unseen. Which I did.lol

 

I believe it's more related to aesthetics than to scale

 

What do you mean?

 

They’ll chat with you across the cubicle, but don’t expect to meet up for drinks later.

 

I had to sell Ordin to get in on this set...

I did NOT make a mistake...

I'd be pissed if Hungry Boi never came out, but I don't regret getting the limbs. They rock.
