Rampage.....Ravage.....both cats right? I guess I've always cared more about sculpt/paint than articulation so I never bothered to have the arm backwards.
Really digging this big boy. Love the articulation and how stable it is. I like to do dynamic poses/change it up from time to time. Size works for me as well. I have leader class POTP Optimus, Leader class CW Megatron, MP36 and MP Grimlock and he scales nicely with them. That's the only issue I had with other combiners like Superion. I really like it but it is small with leader class/MP figures.
In case anyone was interested.. So far Headstrong's G1 weapons fit perfect, however if you're like me and want to store them in combined mode, his are the only ones that will need modifying to fit around his thumbs.
Here's JinBao's KO OS Feral Rex Fists on POTP Predaking. Just some washers and a small bolt and they fit great!
Please pardon me for not reading the entire thread. I can do that this evening. I finally got my set opened up and think they're good enough for me. Even more so after the DNA kit comes in. My question is, can Predaking only have the shorter arms? Basically needing to have Divebomb and Rampage's bot legs shortened? I can have Divebomb in the longer arm mode with no problems but Rampage doesn't seem to be able to pull that off and stay together. I'm okay either way, I just would prefer the lengthened arms, if possible. Didn't know if this might be something that folks have discussed at length. If there might be any pointers, tips or something I'm just not seeing. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
Online for me....got him from amazon america when I visiting last month. I threw the box away and brought the bots back to Japan wrapped in bubble wrap in my suitcase. Was cheaper than the Takara version, which is identical.
I got mine from Amazon with also a $50 gift card that dropped the price also down a little more for me. So when you take the 50$ from the price i got stuck with something like $118 and change i believe with tax and took free shipping.
Ordered mine from ToysRus Canada online. Overall, I'm very happy with this figure. My only regret with the set was that Takara didn't release a UW upgraded version similar to their Devestator with the extra weaponry. A giant sword for the 'King and proper individual rifles would have made me sway towards the Japanese release, if that were the case. As is, I'm going to dig out my G1 weapons for them at some point. Right now though, I'm enjoying Titan Predaking in all his glory.
The price is around 140 on Amazon. It is still a high price for what it is. Predaking, as many modern Transformers, is affected with the cheap hollow plastic syndrome. Something around 100 or less will be aceptable for a CHPS combiner. Maybe in christmas we could find a better price.
Yeah, with the design of Rampage, his legs don't hold extended as easily as Divebomb's. You can try Yautja's suggestion, or if you find it may be too complex, just add a thin bead of glue to the pegs on Rampage's legs. Once dried, will hold together with friction.
