I just spoke to a representative at site sponsor Robotkingdom's booth where they had the teaser shown below on display. According to the representative this set will be in the same scale as Hercules!

I would totally wish against this if I found a lamp with a genie in it.

Plenty of others to choose from:

Defensor
Menasor
Computron
Predaking
Monstructor
Abominus
Road Caesar
Lio Kaiser


I have a decent Superion and a really good G3 Silverbolt.

it is you. :P At least, that's my opinion. Nice to see some Aerialbot love. As ever with these vaguer than vague teases, I'll await pictures and prices before I commit, but yeah the FP upgrades didn't cut it in my eyes. Although, I hope Silverbolt's bot mode at least, along with each's individual plane mode are all pretty close to their G1 designs.
assembling a Neo-G1/TF:TM cast. Please PM if you have (or know of) the following at a reasonable price: Classics or Henkei Prowl, Astrotrain, Ramjet, Skywarp, Sunstreaker, Sideswipe, Blurr, Perceptor, GDO Wheelie and Springer, or 3rd Party Motobot Arcee, FP Springer, iGear Ratchet and Ironhide, City Commander (and/or Ultra Magnus), Starscream (deluxe) Coronation add-on, or Spike and Daniel in their Exo-Suits.

While this is nice and all, I'm pretty good with FP upgraded Superion. I bit on Devy because he's my foavorite combiner ... it'll have to be a VERY slow few months for me to get this.
Wanted:
City Commander's head (KO or original)
Henkei Hot Rod's bio card
Universe Ironhide / Ratchet's gun/blade attachment

I'm actually glad to hear this. I sold my FP Aerialbot set because I just didn't like the overall design and dimensions of the gestalt.

This being as big as Hercules means it will probably scale well with MT Giant and FP Bruticus-I just want Superion to be scaled a bit larger than the other gestalts. That and since my Autobots are without a combiner right now, they need someone big to help shift the balance of power.
FOR SALE:

If TFC does Superion in the same style and scale as their Devastator then I am not interested.

Holy bebus, if it is anything like Hercules, it should be a good one. I'll take all of the major gestalts even if it took a few years. Now, if you'll excuse me, i need to take a shower and cool off.

By 'same scale' they must mean same height... cos the same scale would be about twice as tall. jets are big.
