Do these things do anything in the individual robot modes,or do they just update combined mode?

 

^ Think it's just for Hercules, unfortunately.

 

The parts are additional weapon for the individual robot modes. Check the side of the box for pictures.

 

Can't find any of the side of the box

 

Whats with the white Herc in the instructions? I was thinking whatever is black are the Rage set pieces, but that doesn't explain white the windows, thighs, etc are black.

 

... it's in black and white, my friend.

 

The torso has always been very lanky.

Any word on how stable the elbow ratchets are on the new forearms? They just look so skinny, almost reminds me of the FP Superion upgrade. I wonder how they will stand the test of time.

 

Has anyone else who preordeed from RK NOT gotten a shipping notice yet? I've preordered a few other things from them before and never had a three day wait. Not trying to be totally impatient, but I'm excited to get this, as well as a few other things that are coming with it.

 

i ordered mine from RK back in March. it shipped out last week. 41 shipped! better than anywhere else. cant wait.
i just dont understand why any1 that has Hercules would not get this set. i mean, crazy devi is piecing out each upgrade for the same price individually. plus this set will be leaps and bounds better in quality than CD too. this set should not be a maybe if you shelled out 600 for Herc. my 2 cents

 

I just want the arms!

 

I'm still not feeling the new for arms or shoulders, the new head and rifle are damn sexy.

 

Well the forarms already have a qc issue.

Outside of that, it is an interesting set but one that counters herc's initial " self contained" thesis.

I will keep my tfc herc as an use inspired piece and giant will be my classicdd devastator.

Call me when tfc releases a green blade andh purple barrel. Then i will go back and buy the rage set.

 

Like the head every thing else is just icing.

 

Who wants to buy this and piece it out for those who only want a part of the set?!

 

Thanks. Too bad it looks so hollow without the treads being used to cover it, pretty much forcing the use of the G1 style arms. Would have liked to add the bulk and movement to him. At this point all I'm interested in is the gun, and obviously it's not worth getting the set just for that.

 

Theres LOTS more pics in the Herc megathread Risko

 

I'm aware. But more than 2000 pages is a bit hard to sift through   I have Hercules and I'm more than happy with him the way he is. The only things in the set that interested me were the shoulder extensions and the gun, and the shoulder extensions just don't look that good without the new forearms, too.
