    How about Tracy the gorilla from the 70's Ghost Busters tv show?

    Man, I'm really showing my age with this one. :confused:

    Welcome to the site. We only have the first three members shown off so far. This thread is probably the second best place to grab news. The best would probably be Cang's weibo, but I've never used that site before, and it's also all in chinese.

    There is also a thread for ShowZ store on the 3p board, you can @ showz, and ask if they know when the Cang bots are coming back in stock.

    Welcome!
    Can you tell me what you mean by "the rundown"? Is there anything specific you want to know about the three revealed figures? We still know nothing about their Headstrong, Razorclaw, or MonkeyPants.

    I guess the history of the project, how long its been in development. When news about the next figures is expected. Any relevant rumors or theories. Anything about cang toys, I can't find anything about them on google.

    They are the designer team behind TFC and Jiang Xing. You can have more information from their weibo site, they are quite responsive there. The weibo application has a translator built in, making it easier to communicate with them.

    Also, ambystoma mexicanum has amazing regenerative abilities, he can even grow back part of his head and brain. A mecha axolotl would surely care less about battle injuries.
    The problem is... They try to eat everything that moves nearby. Even other members of their same species. Once one of my reproductive adults tried to eat my finger while i was feeding him. An axolbot will definitely and constantly try to eat the rest of the group.

    He should've follow my redhead-based diet.

    The project was first announced in June 2018. Not much was known, but they did share little cartoon chibi characters hinting at the project and the monkey pants (with a chibi monkey based on Optimus Primal). Thankfully the revealed designs have not resembled the chibi cartoons in any way.

    Ferocious (aka Rampage) was released in early 2020 and Landbull (Tantrum) about 6 months later. Firmament (Divebomb) looks to be coming out very soon, so I figure we are on a roughly 6 month schedule.

    Each figure is being revealed around the time that the prior one is released, so with Firmament/Divebomb coming soon, I think most of us anticipate seeing a black and white model of the next figure revealed soon. Because 3P combiners usually don't reveal or release the torso until the end of the project, we are assuming that "Headstrong" will be that next figure released, late in 2021.

    As the torso figures, I think we anticipate "Razorclaw" and MonkeyPants following in 2022, though I'm not sure which will come first.

    The big question is when will we see "Predaking" revealed in his full glory, but that may not be until 2022.

    When applying to join a team "eating others of my kind" probably isn't a selling point.

    Too salty.

    Most likely we'll see CT Predaking in 2022 and judging from their past release dates it could be that their trying to release 2 figures per year. I just hope that we can get 3 of the predacons this year and whoever the last member in 2022.

    It seems to me that the torso figures require more engineering so I can imagine that the last two figures may take a little longer than the limbs (but it would be nice to get January/June/December for the next 3 figures).

    Think I’ll take Rodney Carrington’s advice and just call him Fred.

    He'll be the gestalt pants, so technically Razorclaw, Rampage and Divebomb. At the same time.

    Big shoutout to the Cang Toys after sales services team... had some stress mark appear on the neck tab of my ferocious CT01. Contacted them and now a replacement piece is on the way.

    It looks like they are off to a good start.

    Are these MP sized? I'm highly thinking about pre ordering them. Currently got all the Gigapower dinobots on pre order. This is my foray into collecting transformers

    For the stuff I own, these are easily the biggest individual figures I have outside of Freedom Leader/Tactics Waistcoat. They're easily MP-sized. Pretty sure that Ferocious and Landbull both weren't even that much shorter than Feral Rex combined.

    MP sized (maybe a touch bigger?), but smaller than the Gigas.

    Same here, these two are my only MPs so far, but I’ve got that GT White Ape slowly on it’s way to me in addition to the GP dinos.

    After they are finished with the Predacons, they are planning a set of combining Dinobots as well.
