    Does look like they will form a pretty decent-sized Legends combiner.

    Minor quibble of both mini and MP sizes: I wish the robot arms were a bit more concealed than just obviously folded up

    Even though Landmini is to be released in the next couple of days, he's already popping up in reviewer's hands. ShowZ show us all some love!

    Did you see in the instructions that they show the left hand but he came with the right? Weird. I know you can swap the thumb, but I'll wait to see if the other arm has the other hand.

    I'm 99% sure I'm gonna double dip, but would it be wrong to only double the original 5?

    I swapped the thumb.

    Not a toon purist, but always make Divebomb the right and Rampage the left like they were there (same with Headstrong/right, Tantrum/left(

    If you're going to have one set in combined mode and the others as individuals, then you could treat it like Razorclaw somehow turned gained enough mass to be the entire gestalt torso and hips. Personally I'd buy a second gorilla anyway - even if you leave it in the box, you have all the pieces needed for two complete gestalt guns and swords if you ever wanted to dual-wield, and you'll have more chance of selling in future if you have the complete set.

    Well, talked to Cang a little bit back (a few days ago) and have been told that the last 2 members of this set won't be seen until somewhere in the 2nd half of this year. At least he'll be 2/3 complete by the time the final 2 are seen and released :D

    Pretty happy with this guy I’m sure this set will be much more fun to handle then the mp I will probably uncombine the mp versions since there much better as individual figures

    Top 5 all time legends figure, coming from a NA, MS and IF collector. If the rest of the team is up to that level will be an amazing combiner. Also I like the style which is completely subjective but the quality is top.

    I generally get legends figures of figures I wouldn't want to dish out $100+ for an MP for. Like characters I don't really care about or don't have great MP representation for them. Like Arceeor Ratchet.

    Has dawned on me recently.

    Four barrels?

    That some.90's comic ****.

    But, definitely not as 'Xtreme' as it could get....

    Whats the latest on the next figure to be released gang? Has it actually hit retail or in-stock/in-hand at any online stores yet?

    Also, does our inside man @TheLastPrime2893 have an official release order of the remaining 5 figures? Wouldn't be surprised if mini-lion & mini-ape are the last 2.

    @Magna Jet Convoy, Landmini is already shipped out by Cang. The retailers themselves are waiting on their shipments to come in stock (ie, ShowZ, BBTS, RK, etc). ShowZ has yet to reveal their price, but I think they're waiting until (or a bit before) their shipment arrives before revealing their price for him.

    As for the official release order of the 5 remaining figures, with Landmini already released, that only leaves 4. Rhimini is next and he'll be released next month. By the looks of things, Thormini may be following behind possibly in May. I was recently informed by Cang that the last 2 members, Kingmini and Feromini won't be seen until the 2nd half of this year (anywhere between June to December). But not sure which of those 2 will be next in line after Thormini is released. I'm gonna guess that it'll be Kingmini and then Feromini, but only Cang knows. We're just left guessing as of right now..

    I gotta say, I agree with you on the extreme styling of these guys. But the way they execute it almost flawlessly alongside the incredibly intuitive design is pretty impressive.

    While the wings look great in bird mode and I'm sure will be great on predaking. I think it's too much for bot mode so I popped the ball joints. Yes I also keep the feet reversed so it looks more botish.

    Just got my notice from Showz for Landmini to be paid off. 42.99 USD. I am ok with this.
