    @blurr95, I noticed that Spacetron came with an extra head and 2 small black pieces. Any idea where they go? I'm asking you since you have a copy of Spacetron and I wanna make sure that nothing on him is missing any parts..

    Not sure really. I have the purple and gray metallic version, and I don’t remember it coming with those extra parts. I’ve had it for a good while. I do think the extra head would go on its neck though. Make sure you take the other one off first. Other then that, can’t be much help, sorry. There might be something on YouTube for it.

    Alright, I went full madlad and did it. My fingers hurts so bad after transforming and posing...but it's so worth it.

    Also hands-down the most anxiety-filled posing I've ever had to do. Kept attempting to slide off the box. thunderkingwithoutaleg.jpg

    I'm impressed. If only he had a throne he could sit in holding the crown. That is.. until VolcaniKing comes knocking on the door to claim that crown :D

    I would LOVE to have a throne for him to sit on. May have to try crafting one at some point.

    Oh man, after seeing the grays for the Dinobots I'm more stoked than ever. having these two side by side (or god forbid, in action poses. terrifying thought) will be AMAZING.

    Gotta admit though, that smirk on his face speaks volumes. He's definitely up to no good :D

    Still not sure how I want to display the Predaking head.
    Right now have the "antenna's" tucked away, and the head-spikes aiming backwards.

    Right... Thorilla got here a couple of days ago (same time as the last two train bots), and I've just not had chance to open up and play around around with the figure until this evening. But now that I have... Am I the only the one who thinks this is the best of the set so far?

    I rarely gush so profusely about figures, particularly combiner bots since they are just a small piece of a larger whole, but the second I got this beefy bastard out the box I was in love with it. The colours, the sculpt, the accessories (the hammer looks great and the knee bracers make for legit looking fist weapons) the relatively simple transformation, the really cool gorilla mode, the even better bot mode... It's one of the best original Transformers designs I've seen, and I frigging love it. To be honest, I was all ready to just put this bastard into combined and pose him up as Predaking ASAP, but it genuinely seems a tragedy to turn such a fantastic looking bot into a pair of pants forever.

    Strange how "Monkeypants" turned out to be not only a great figure in it's own right, but my favourite of an already impressive team. Who would have thought it?

    For an original figure, they did Thorilla proud I think. He looks amazing and fits very well in the team. But the best? Personally, I think Kinglion takes that crown. He looks insanely good.

    Went the same route as @Maxxion and was surprised to discover that my copy of Divebomb does not have elbow ratchets in arm mode, but rather a very tight friction joint. Can anyone confirm if they have the same thing?
