    Well, if it's only going to be about an inch and a half taller than POTP, I'm passing. Those "blunderbuss" guns, and the weak looking feather, are disappointing. If it was larger (around 24in.), I'd be tempted for custom fodder

    19.3” might suffice for my needs to display with my zeta MP combiners... but still waiting for Toyworlds Predaking reveal .

    I was referring to the connection point. I've got the feeling that those feathers will drooping in no time

    Even bunched they've got a lot of space between them. I don't know, just a very odd design choice in my opinion

    SOLD! I don’t have a Predaking and it seems like they just went with the upgrades so I’m in.

    ...I'm good. The OSKO doesn't address my biggest problems with the Hasbro version, which was the wasp waist. Wings and better fists are nice but a filled out body is what that thing really needs, and I don't even see why nobody's designed a better backpack for Divebomb that achieves that.

    I got my official version super cheap so I'll just buy the upgrade set and be done with it until somebody comes along and does a brand-new Predaking in Zeta scale.

    Pretty sure someone will sort the waist out. 19.3" is like less than half an inch shorter than Constructor iirc? Bring it. Might swap some os Feral Rex parts like wings and animal heads. See how they look in hand first.

    WJ is trying to get into the upgrade game, wouldn’t be surprised if they did one for this.

    Or, go to the Lego store, and grab what you need.


    And King should be taller than Devastator. I guess they sized it to the Combiner Wars one.

    Thanks for that. That seems like an okay size to go with Constructor and Armageddon and Kronos.

    I mean... if I had your customizing skills I'd feel completely differently about every toy, LOL. But I'm pretty much an 'out of the box' kind of guy. If it's something that reprolabels or, at most, a Gundam pen can't fix, I leave it to the professionals (or, in this case, highly skilled hobbyists, LOL)

    That's not how we measure things though. We measure to the head!

    So with the new ruling in China I guess Wei jiang might be in trouble if Hasbro goes after them.....
