    It's interesting to see that Cutthroat's yellow is different. I didn't think any of the actual shades used were changed from the PotP versions. Just the color placement and painted details.

    I'd love for Predaking to get this treatment

    Given how we're due to getting our first Titan in the Selects line with Black Zarak later on, I would imagine a Selects Predaking might not be too farfetched. Maybe.

    I'm crossing my fingers for it; I hope the Legends/Gen Selects manga continues in SOME way so we could at least get a hint of what's to come.

    The hands are just recolors of the King Poseidon ones, right? I kinda like those and the new feet.

    If a kit comes out and anyone replaces the stock combiner head, hands ,and feet I’ll buy them from you please.

    I’d pay good money for the box/packing too.

    I didn't realize the combiner chest was retooled. I thought they just slapped that shield piece over it. That's a shame, because I really prefer the white helmet look of the PotP version. Would've been nice to use the new parts on him.

    The new shield is called Terrorbreaster...oh Takara and your naming conventions.

    Abominus was released in Asia last week, so it makes sense for people to have them in-hand now.

    It would’ve been nice if CW Computron didn’t look like vomit and had actual effort put in

    I get why it was released as a set, but I wish they did a seperate release of Hungurr with the new parts to go with it. He's the only one that looks different enough to be worth it for me.

    Speak for yourself.
    Looks better than Takara's IMO.

    I prefer the deco of the hasbro version, but I will agree that the takara molds are a lot better. I wish there could be a toy-colored version of the UW set

    And that’s why I made my own...

    but in all honesty I liked both. Even though there were things I also didn’t.
