    Joining the "paid up for Evil Rhinox at ShowZ" party that started here in past 24 hours. I was also advised by them they haven't actually received their stock as yet - and it's unlikely orders will be shipped prior to CNY.

    Yes, I was told the same thing. If anything, they won't be shipping until around February 1st. Either way it goes, still looking forward to it..

    I'm kinda relieved that I jumped on the pay-up notification email we all would've received. Just in case there's short supply of initial stock - first paid is first shipped kinda thing. This is based on previous later payment for King Aslan which meant waiting for their second allocation to drop.

    And to be honest, ShowZ (and their rival stores) are gonna have a massive backlog to manage once everyone goes back to work following CNY. Especially with the COVID situation.

    P.S, speaking of Rhinox, I have to giggle when I see reviewers positioning/posing HugerRhino's tail in beast mode. Instantly reminds me of Rhinox's finishing move at the end of Beast Wars Season 1: Episode 22 - The Low Road LOL

    Not sure if these are gonna be coming with Hugerhino or what, but these seem to be pieces to replace any that are broken when using the braces in combined mode..

    Maybe a metal piece to replace the plastic one. It's one reason I never plugged those into the back of the leg

    Per this very sloppy google translate I did, it seems like it
    "Therefore, we have replaced the material of the part with "Sai Steel" material, and will include 2 competition parts in the upcoming giant rhinoceros. Replacement parts made of steel and the screws needed to remove the broken parts."

    Good call on their end, those pieces are very rigid and have a high potential for breakage when installed.

    In that case, I'll hold off on installing the braces in combined mode. Despite the fact I did use a bit of shock oil to loosen those things up a bit because they were extremely tight, that still worries me that they might break when installed. Kudos to CT for thinking of EVERYTHING dealing with this MP set. Companies these days will leave you high & dry, just so you'll pay extra just to get replacement parts once something breaks. Playing the waiting game is no longer a problem here..

    Wait a second, where's our hero @axisvega? Don't want him missing out on any of this. Speaking of heroes, can't wait to see Emgo's review on Hugerhino & Thunderking when time comes :D

    Emgo is going to piss himself. Once when he gets Hugerhino, once when the group is assembled, and once out of sheer terror when combining them.

    After getting monkeypants into crotch mode I have come to realize I think I greatly underestimated the size of thunderking. I was expecting Zeta bruticus size but I’m now convinced he will be quite a bit bigger

    Yep, definitely bigger. And it's crazy on how the combined mode sword is the same size and height of the combiner itself. If that isn't insane, idk what is..
