To go with my Nucleon Quest Convoy, I bought the old Maketoys Tunder Erebus from Aliexpress. At 125$CAN shipped, it was a great deal. Unfortunately, the box came crushed. At least, the content was unbroken. The box went to the recycling bin.

Image

The core bot is really tiny. Old scout sized. Smaller than a current small deluxe, bigger than a current Core class. Regardless, he looks amazing. I added :BOT: in all the appropriate places because despite being a "black version", he's still a Bot.

Image

Image

The original TOWER over him. I will turn his chest windows blue/purple one day.

Image

Image

Even the engine guy, "Ginrai", is smaller than a Titanmaster!

Image

The truck is small and adorable. The back should only be this way to prepare for the combinason.

Image

Image

Image

Smol truck is smol. Especially compared to the original.

Image

The "powermaster" is very tiny and is missing some chrome IMO.<<

Image

The super mode is where the set is at it's strongest. The super bot is HUGE. Almost as big as the original!

Image

Image

Image

More massive than a current leader. This set would certainly fit the Commander class.

Image

Highly poseable too! Plus his guns are secure in his hands thanks to the rails system in his palms.

Image

Image

Image

There is no official base mode for this guy. But you can improvise one easily.

Image

Image

The overall transformation is not hard. The manual being mostly useless, I could figure out everything on my own.

Image

The truck is really bad-ass!

Image

Image

Definitely smaller than the original here.

Image

Overall, I'm pretty happy with him. Especially at that price!

Looks pretty good. Does it have a regular deco version?

I know my local geek store have the regular version in stock, plus the "god bomber" but the price is ludicrous.

Maketoys Thunder Manus can still be found, but is expensive. Only one at AliExpress but the seller is the kind to sell the thing "for cheap" then overcharge shipping.
