    All the features in it kinda ruin it for me. I would buy it if it was just the crotch plate and that's it (with hands and feet as a bonus, since it's PE who already did hands and feet for Superion it's expected), but I'm not really a fan of the stacks on his shoulders or new head or the fact that it attaches to where his old crotch plate is instead of just snapping around his waist, which results in a big backpack on Motormaster...
    And is it just me or is the angle of his thighs in the pics as close together as they can get? :inquisiti 

    They turn into the hands and feet.

    Those guns are the hands and feet. The gatling guns transform into the feet and the smaller ones transform into the hands.

    I wonder if you can still rotate "Motor Master's arms" freely while that backpack thing is on him in combined form. My configuration of Menasor involve him using Motor-Master's arms as part of the combination.

    Also is that leg split permanent?

    I think it's so he can input it in the search function and quickly find all of the threads he starts so he can update them when necessary.

    I will probably still pick there's up (for obvious reasons) but it just went a LOT further down on my priority list.

    I :lolol 

    :lol 
    Same here. While I like what PE is bringing to the table, I still really like Intimidator.

    There is a maximum limit to how big a post can be I believe. So for threads like the MMC Feral Rex thread that goes on for years with lots of updates from the manufacturer, if the first post maxes out in size, the second post can be used to continue summarizing all the official updates, and people don't have to hunt for them.

    At least that's how I always saw it.

    That's because you've openly stated how much you hate third party figures, but insist on coming to the dark corner of the collecting world that is third party forums and posting here.

    Looks pretty neat, will probably pick it up. Though I would've maybe liked to have seen something that allowed Blackjack to peg into Menasor's chest better as well.

    Really liking all thse CW add-ons they're doing. Hopefully there'll be a big one for Devastator when he comes out.

    Looks fantastic, but isn't it pretty certain, going by the photos and how motormaster is put together, that makes menasor's hips are fixed in that A stance? And that makes any bends at the knee happen at an odd angle, as shown in the photo when he's kneeling, right? Not for me if that is the case. I'd love to see another attempt though,,even if the add on was the whole upper leg/waist in itself (which I think any defensor/bruticus add ons would have to do to get around the combined mode hip joints starting halfway up their mid rifs).

    CW Motormaster isn't meant to be a full G1 styled update to the character. He's meant to be a different take while at the same time retain certain elements. Granted both MM and Optimus share the same mold but MM does have some distinct differences. Lone Wolf on the other hand is meant to be a full G1 styled update so in a way it's not fair to compare them.

    I preordered the purple hands and feet. Should I cancle it? Is this a separate order or includes the hands and feet?

    The hands and feet are NOT included with the torso set.
