    I want a combination of both. Zeta's main body looks better but the wings and the two kibble above his back is better on Thunder warrior.

    never have we needed side by side comparos more. lol. is it me or is zeta's F-4 frontal section less oversized than the thunder warrior? Could be just angle on photos. the proportions on both are wonky. looks like thunder warrior is closer to release but there are aspects of zetas i like better. i wonder if they are based on the same basic design - as if an independent designer sold to both and then each put their own flavor/finishing touches on it. frankly i'm more likely to wait for the zeta as it seems their pioneer was well received and the f-4 mode is a little better. the bmb tw, looks great but we need to see more feedback i think as i think they are less proven and called this their "new higher quality" line? i think its a wait and see but despite the nice paint job of the bmb tw, i'm leaning toward zeta still at the moment.

    I think I will wait for the Zeta one. Like the look of it a bit better, it's more cleaned up and has slightly better proportions. Plus, yeah, BMB quality is a genuine concern.

    Looks perfect in jet mode. The bot mode is slightly off, but not bad by any means

    Finally, a 3P company doing a bot that isn't BB or Prime in an MP Scale. Bring on all of the BB designs, my wallet is ready

    Zeta if you read this, please add an alternate Starscream head. Stylize it so it fits the movie esthetic!

    Thank you!

    If Thunder Warrior (SX) is really made by BMB, I will strongly suspect the quality of the final mass product given BMB's reputation.

    The box shows Mechanical Alliance, which is related to BMB.

    I will pass then :( 
    The design is so complicated that I don't think BMB's engineering/manufacturing/material is enable to support it. By the way, TCP's preorder price is more than $180 for it ...

    I definitely prefer Zeta's over BMB due to the better jet mode, but both look pretty solid. Looking forward to better pics as they get closer to release.

    It’s difficult to really ascertain if it looks good enough to compete with things like the ThreeZero ‘wing while unpainted for me. The sculpt looks good, and that has to be one of the cleanest jet undercarriages in a MP-scale figure of a transformer I’ve ever seen, but time will tell off the paint and price can deter from the official.
