    Am I wrong in thinking that Herc is more like the Dreamwave character model?

    Now let's see the combined rifle! Let's go TFC and get these shipped out so I can display my Hercules next to my Predaking!

    Yup, but so many fans asked for G1 chest plate it went the G1 route, sort of.

    Being that they are listening to fans:

    Dear TFC,

    Can you please provide us with 2 heads for this piece of awesomeness. I would like the head you currently have and also a G1 representation of the head. In this way I can switch the way I show him off.

    Thank you!

    About the MT and TFC Devi arguements? I think they are two very different versions and both have their appeal. Giant has those shoulder treads that make him look more symetrical. Hercules is self contained and thus uses the treads as forearms, also cool.

    I love em both, will own them both and one day in April or May I will decide where to pose Hercules. Giant get's the Classics shelf due to being in line with Bruticus and the rumoured Menasor. Hercules has to be bought just out of respect for the first REAL combiner to see the light of day since the mid 80's, and he's big, and awesome, and....


    To all those talking about Giant, we only know 2 facts about it. What it looks liek in those two pictures and that Maketoy is making it. AND REMEMBER FOLKS MAKETOYS IS NOT FANSPROJECT lmao. Price, date, how it will be released? If you hear anyone talking abotu that....they are wrong cuz the info does not exist to the public yet.

    its the forearms shoulders and head that i see the differences. forearms on herc are treads this was not so in G1 same with what i can see of the head the maketoys head looks more like G1 head. i still like both just for different reasons.

    Support this. We know TFC listens and we already got the chest shield. Have them add their G1 head so that no other replacement parts are needed once this thing is done.


    ANYONE notice the split in the middle of the cement mixer? It looks like it splits in half. I wonder that it does??



    ABOUT THE OFF CENTERED HEAD ON HERC. The head IS off but only because of the pose. Herc's head is on a swivel but once you move Dr. Cranks crane it eats up room for the head so it has to be pushed over a bit. You CAN have the head centered BUT not in that pose.

    im maketoys all the way. i think both failed to a degree on mixmaster: Im not feeling MT's hollow foot look, and the cab on TFC's is pretty boxy.
    is it me, or does it look life Giant's left arm (your right) is pretty inhibited by all that garbage on top of the shoulder? does it have clearance as far as hook's crane?

    Looks awesome. Can't wait to see it in full color! Sadly, though, I doubt I will ever own one. :(

    Seali, I think that prototype is held together with gum and a prayer(much like the chest shield lol). We won't see poses for a looooong time.

    Sigh.

    I really haven't been impressed enough with the colors/paint aps/sculpts of the individual bots to go down this road. But that thing is pretty impressive.

    And even with my misgivings about the color/individual sculpts, I still have to admit it is one of the most impressive third party toys ever done.

    If it was cheaper, I might even ignore my frustrations and get it anyhow.
