TFC Toys have revealed the next figure in their Hercules combiner team, Neck Breaker (aka Bonecrusher). They have also at long last posted an image of their Hercules figure fully combined. Unfortunately we are only getting to see Mad Blender (aka Mixmaster) in leg mode as a CGI model. It also appears Hercules will sport a G1 style chest wing!

They have also posted additional images of their DSRL camera team, as well as the new Junkion Blacksmith Headmasters and Infinity Warfare set.

Take a look at the images mirrored from their weibo page below.

UPDATE: Added a bunch of images from ACToys at the bottom of the post.

Oops, my bad.

Bonecrusher looks great !!! And I love Devastator !!! Only thing I hope they reconsider the head and put a damn visor !!!

Not to be negative yet, but its shoulders are waaaaay to narrow, and the chest wing is entirely to small/short. It looks out of place. And for $600+ this damn thing should have been perfect in EVERY detail!!!

lmao at the work in progress box propping it up, hahahaha

Oh thank heaven for the chest wing! I am so in nerdlove with this set!!!! I agree, a visor would be nice, but seriously, if that's all anyone can find wrong with this guy (other than the price) then I say WIN!

Also, I feel better knowing there is complete model and that the set will not be canceled midway through. I hate the idea of having half a Devastator! :lol:

CHEST SHIELD!!!

I'm way more excited by that than Neckbreaker at the moment. I never considered it to be a big deal until I saw it.

Looks like they updated their treads; they look nice. The head kind reminds me of Primus though.

Ideally the bulldozer's blade would be on Dev's shoulder, but chest shield forgives all. This thing is going to be amazing!

The bulldozer blade is on Devvies shoulder, well the central section that becomes the chest of the robot anyway. The other two bits that become Bonecrusher's feet are on his wrists.

It might be just me, or the angle the picture was taken, but looking at the second closeup of Devastator, it looks like his head isn't centered. Looks too far toward the right shoulder, anyone else see this?

You are right !! The other pics are from an angle HIDING it, but from head on the "head" is offset, That will be a major disappointment if thats how it turns out. And Im already peaved about ANY little thing that looks wrong since it cost so much. I just feel it needs to be near perfect.

The head is on a pivot arm so it can fold into Dr Crank, so if the person setting up the figure was not very careful it will be slightly off centre, its not a problem.

As much time and effort as they have invested in this project I don't they've overlooked something as obvious as the Devy head not being centered. As Dread_Wing has shown it has lateral movement due to the transformation.

Just wondering why everyone is going gaga over Devasator, when there are other awesome things shown here. I personally am super psyched about the sword for Unicron & Primus. =P~

Mostly because I can't afford anything third party right now. but i'm going to get that sword somehow.

It looks good but the leg/shoulder articulation had better be spectacular for that price.

Not much to see of Mad Blender as yet. :-?

Uh HELLO!
Did anyone notice the potential G2 repaint here...?

Why would anyone be psyched up about the sword? Canonically, Unicron wields a morning star and a shield, while Primus wields a rapier/longsword and a round shield (or two asteroid-morning stars in Cybertron)

Devastator looks great as does Neckbreaker. The sooner I see Madblender the better.

I should hope that the all orange means it's just an early plastic prototype of the figure.

Thank god Hercules will have a chest wing! One less reason for the haters to whinge. I sure as hell won't be using it. I don't mind him having eyes, although I wouldn't be bothered if he had a visor instead. I just wish his head wasn't hollow. I know Devastator isn't the most intelligent of Transformers, but I don't want a visual representation of that fact.

Neck Breaker isn't as good looking as I hoped he'd be. Bulldozer mode is short and stocky, his robot mode has massive birthing hips and narrow shoulders, and his arm form is covered in holes and screws. Still can't wait.

D.S.L.R. is looking pretty cool too. More varied transformation than PE-11 but severly lacking in the ingenuity of accessories and weapons. Will be sticking with SFX me thinks.

FYI You can already make the Unicron sword. THose two Junkion sets are currently available. They are upgrades originally for the G1 Predaking, but you can configure the weapons in lots of different ways. Two different color sets red/black, and blue/grey are available. Same pieces, but super many combinations. The one in the picture looks to be the blue/grey set, with one piece of the red set added in.

IF they do G2 sets.... what is a collector to do????

EDIT: Reverse the blue and the red in my comments about the created blade Unicron is holding.

$22 for each INFINITY WARFARE set at ToyArena (+shipping).
