    More pics to come guys, but I just shot the video review, so I'm putting that all together before doing anymore shooting.

    Finally pre-ordered my set in green a bit ago from BBTS. Definitely looking forward to "Giant". As impressive a figure as Hercules is, I still much prefer the aesthetics on Giant. Very glad I held out. :thumb

    Thanks. Hopefully u guys enjoy the video.

    Nope. And I think I read somewhere earlier that people thought it did? But it's screwed in, so there's no way for it to happen without unscrewing.

    hm, if i could afford them, I do see the want for the yellow of this and the green of Herc, makes more sense to have a yellow Giant and green Herc to make them that much more different to me.... just rambling and drooling over figs..

    oh and TJ hurry up with the roided reveiws!!

    hah maybe thats something you can take and use it back for comedy at how nice the pics are anyway..

    So, Hook is larger than Dr. Crank in robot mode, huh? That's interesting...

    The comparison shots really speak volumes to me. I think I've been turning a blind eye as to how well these fit in with the Classics aesthetic.

    The more I see of this set, both TJ and blueben's comparison pics, the more I'm sold on the yellow set and willing to wait and see on the green set. I cannot imagine a g1 aesthetic fitting this better.

    These comparisons are great! Any chance of doing the other ones? TFC Hook wins the individual round, but Long Haul is closer than I had thought even though I always thought MT's was pretty crummy. Guess TFC's isn't all that much better.

    I think I'll much prefer TFC's for Scavenger and Bonecrusher (after customizing the shit black blade/chest) individual modes, but I'd like to see the side by sides...maybe I'll be surprised like I was for Long Haul.
