    Ehh... I'm not sure Leo's that impressive. He's fine, but personally I found him a slight step down from Bovis and Fortis. Those guys were much more fun to play with, and didn't have his weird issues of leftover pieces and and the awkward jointing mandated by the combined mode. I'd just open them in their retail order, with Talon last.

    Sorry buddy don't think that will be happening, these are already going to be expensive enough as it is. Adding more or different parts will kmake them very cost prohibitive.

    Yes and we plan on making them available to those who want them.

    I agree, Leo is the best of the lot.

    Went in order of release.

    Glad I held out on ordering them as they went along. Having the majority of them at one single moment is super satifying. Can't wait to complete them!

    Not the clearererest pic, but hey... It's been a long time coming since I've wanted to do this scene! Not quite there, but getting there.

    Fortis and Bovis are probably really bummed that this maybe their only chance to hold this mighty sword. Poor leg bots.

    He's rather large.

    And I think these look good together.

    I like how you turned down Bovis's horns. It's how i display mine too. More buffalo than bull for me.

    Finally! Someone who poses their Feral Rex's with the hips/thighs fully extended! Now that looks awesome and more imposing when he's tall! Not sure why most of you like your Feral Rex's short & stubby? Even the original vintage G1 Predaking had the yellow areas from Razorclaw's hips showing on the gestalt's hips.

    I think it's maybe better the other way, since Headstrong is noted for being stubborn, while Tantrum is known for being in a frickin' constant berserker rage, and his default head looks extra stormin' mad.

    Hi, I have a few observation/questions that I was hoping people could answer or comment on if they have any answers or insight.

    1.) I reread the comics for he first three Feralcons today and was wondering does anyone know if the art is hand drawn or computer rendered? I ask because in Bovis's comic, Tigris has his current beast mode's head when in beast mode, but you don't know if its the same for robot mode since there's no front facing shots when he is in robot mode. I bring this up because in Leo Dux's comic he has the same head in beast mode, but in robot mode it's his old beast mode head on his chest. And it's in more than one panel, and fairly consistent. And in Fortis's comic he has his old beast mode head when in beast mode. So I was wondering if renders were replaced, or if everything had to be drawn over by hand. I'm hoping Ceno Kibble could comment on this if he see's it. Also if anyone has Talon's comic can they check to see which head Tigris has in that one?

    2.) Anyone know if pre orders for Felisabre are coming soon, I want this dude and I'm anxious to lock a pre order down. I also noticed PSX still has Talon up for pre order with him expected to release July 25th. Does that website get updated regularly?

    3.) I don't know what news sources to go for this type of stuff so I'll ask here, with Tigris scheduled to ship in less than three weeks has UNICRON-WMD mentioned when he'll be releasing the card art for him? Also don't we usually see in hand shots of the MMC crew eating at a restaurant posing this guy around this time? I remember they did it with Bovis and Talon. I'm curious to see how awesome this guy is.

    4.) If MMC does do another combiner, like the rumored Abominus, does anyone think it will be significantly better than Rex? Other than some aesthetic and color choices Rex seems like he has set a pretty high bar in terms of build quality and engineering. I see any other combiner that comes afterwards as more like the way EA's Madden "improves" with each iteration. The rock solid gameplay is still there but only with minor tweaks to it to make it "Better." For a freshman effort Rex seems like he might just top plenty of people's (not everyones mind you) lists as one of the all time best combiners, and that's just amazing to me for a company's first try at it.
