    I think he looks great, very beefy. I am not sure about the ankles of the combiner feet though. How well will the ball and socket hold up.

    To prep oneself for the incoming YM Vulcan it's time to start watching vid of the original MT Vulcan. Vulcan is the most complex of 'em all..so better to play it safe.

    Hmmm... I was considering expanding my combiner collection (currently all 18 inch warbotron os stuff) to include some of the smaller ones I really want, namely TFC Poseidon and TFM Havoc (I prefer the IDW look to any of the upcoming versions of Menasor, and there doesn't seem much chance of getting a bigger version of either). I was also thinking of getting TFC Prometheus to go with them, but then I read about this new Defensor coming out...

    Is this guy going to scale with those two? Because I may prefer the look of this Defensor to Prometheus.

    This one is the same height as Prometheus, but more slender and aggresive looking to me. He's about 15" tall from what I have read. I am still thinking of picking up Prometheus as well, because I think he looks good also. I am hoping Jinbao will do an OS version of Generation toys Gaurdian though. Although this version should scale the same size as TFM Havoc. I have him on the way, just ordered Powertrain from Robotoybase a couple days ago, best deal I could find on him but shipping was high.

    And hopefully with the recent scenarios with DX9 Capone, this doesn't mean we wait an additional month or so for customs clearance and retailers to find boxes suitable to accommodate him, too.

    Though not 100% accurate, I believe this is how big Hotspot will be next TFM Powertrain.
