    Man, this Onslaught looks amazingly good. I've been staring at the reveal pic, trying to find out where stuff is going during transformation, but he's quite the intricate bot :D  Especially how the front of the vehicle (cab/hood/grill etc) is going to disappear into bot mode.
    Love how MS was able to cram those fake wheels into the arms. Even with all the design trickery, his bot mode proportions look fantastic :thumb 
    I'm super stoked for the combined mode reveal!

    That’s my thinking too. So now that we’ve both said it out loud, watch it be Swindle instead -_-‘

    How much space is there between releases of combiner members with this company? Hit pretty fast or months apart?

    I don't know how long it takes for each actual release, but they're sold in pairs.

    My thought is that Vortex is next and it will be Leg, Arm, Body, Arm, Leg.

    I believe they are mostly quick once they are finished. There was a delay between sets 1 and 2 of Devastator, but I believe 2 and 3 and also the Stunticon releases were all quick. It's been a while but I believe there was some issue that specifically caused the delay in their Constructicons, maybe a Covid shutdown at the factory.

    It is pretty amazing to me how MS can make every mode awesome, individual bot, alt, and combined. Can’t wait til they tackle the Triple Changers.

    Looking good! I do want to see a front-on view of the helicopter, it looks maybe a bit too pointed from the side, but that's a stellar bot mode even if that is the case (and the pettiest of all complaints anyways). Now we just gotta see Swindle.

    Looks fantastic.

    I'd imagine that with tomorrow being Swindle that maybe the day after we'd see what the extra bits are for combination and the day after the combined Bruticus?

    Wish it had a cover for the inner leg but oh well. The blades on the helicopter though yikes. Sliders would've been a much better choice over that hinge.

    I don't know what demon MST's designer had to sell their soul too for their abilities, but it is insane what they are able to do.

    Can’t imagine it’ll be fun to transform but they do look cool in both modes
