Whoa, where did all this TFC hate come from?
Out of the 4 combiners they've made so far (not counting the Star Cats as they were working on commission for a kid's toys company) Hercules is absolutely amazing, quite possibly the perfect G1 Devastator (and kickstarted the 3P combiner craze to boot) Uranos has his flaws but is pretty damn good (I don't like the look of him much but that could very well change if I had him in hand) Ares is quite a divisive figure, but there's no doubt he's very well engineered, and Prometheus isn't even finished yet. I don't really see there's that much to hate about TFC. Ares dilemna aside (we are not going through that mess again) I don't think they've ever made anything that was objectively bad (as in badly engineered, poor quality etc- we're keeping aesthetics and personal taste out of this). They do have a very unique style to them (quite UT with lots of pipes, vents, greebles and fun little gimmicks) but I don't think they've ever made something fundamentally awful (like some of Impossible Toys' early stuff for example).
Anyway, I'm not sure I care enough about SG to buy this (I do like SG but I wouldn't make a whole collection around it) but he does look nice in those colours, and that beast mode is pretty clever.
Ha ha Transformers go brrrrr
