nice. that's a tempting buy, but will wait for the eventual 5 pack  

 

Okay, I may just double dip on Hawk and Iron Head at that price. Hell I might even try army building later on.

 

Man I wish war panther would come on. And a preorder for war Leo. I am anxious to finish warlord. Any word on war panther, he is suppose to be out this month right?

 

This month or next, I believe.

 

I feel you brother. I never thought I would be so excited about these guys coming out but I can't wait. It helps a lot that UT seems to have been able to keep up a pretty steady release of figures. Thanks to some fellow board members making some purchases I was just able to place my order for war panther  

 

Awesome congratulations. Looks like the way things are going, anyone one else getting warlord and any of the other gestalts, warlord will be finished fairly quick. This will be my second combiner as I just finished Uranos.!

 

Congrats to you man on finally finishing Uranos! I am still waiting on Harrier from TFS and Falcon/WoU from CP. Ironically, at this rate I am getting close to finishing Warlord before I finish Uranos, Intimitator, and the TW throttle bot combiner. So say what you will about UT but at least they can stick fairly closely to a release schedule  

However, I am anxious to see preorders for war lion. I am really hoping that his price is reasonable.

 

Where are you guys putting your Decepticon stickers? Rhino and Bull arrived today and I like them just as much as War Hawk.

 

I haven't gotten and symbols yet but that's a good question. I never really looked yet where to put any. Everytime I see someone posted in here I automatically think scaleface is gonna post the next figure is released. Wishful thinking.

 

So anyone know if this set will have an optional upgrade, for example, another member or a kit of some sorts?

 

As far as we know, no. But I believe scaleface or daimchoc posted that with the next figure war panther, he will come with a set of guns for everybody. As far as anything else I don't know.

 

Although UT has taken its share of hits for not spending more time in R&D to make these bots complicated, fiddly and less G1-centric, there is something incredibly meaningful to be said about their ability to consistently crank out their bots at roughly one per month and at a decently acceptable QC level. That and their bots make the most fun TF's to consistently have hanging around on my desk, as they're easy to transform w/out instructions and look absolutely smashing.

 

Hey Zavien, can you post pictures of your custom warhawk ?

 

I didn't place any stickers onto my beasticons though.

I asked Robotkingdom if they have any news on War Leo's preorders, they said that they're still waiting for UT to give the final prices as War Leo will be priced slightly more as its included with the large wings.

 

I agree I'd buy Feral Rex for the individual Robot modes too.

I'm having trouble finding one I like all the beast modes on though - it's usually the Rhino that looks a bit weird.

 

Does anyone have a fix for Bison and Rhino's ratchet joint? Can't seem to get it to move. =\

 

Yeah, they are extremely tight. I had to use a screw driver to pry them out. UT seems to have anticipated this issue because they molded a notch onto the connection point to help a bit.

 

Does it loosen up eventually?

 

I noticed a difference in the plastic quality of Bull and Rhino. They feel comparable to the FP Insecticons and Steelcore. Not that this is a bad thing since they don't appear to be fragile, but I have to admit that Hawk feels pretty damn official by comparison. Like, Unicron Trilogy and early Classics official.

 

I only deployed their ratchets once so mine have not really loosed up yet. However, I figure that they will loosen a bit once they are combined and I start posing warlord alot.
