I can't wait to get these ... but I'll have to since I'm not hitting ship till the next bit of Uranos is in stock.

There is a piece of ass joke in there, but I'm not going there.

This guy rocks!

And I love the scaling with FP Function X(1)

Now, I saw in one of the reviews about how hard it is to pull the fists out. I agree. (This is similar to the Aurora Weapon Folding issue I talked about there, but easier to deal with.) A weird thing happened when I opened mine. One fist was 180 degrees rotated from the other one. This meant that I could use the "baton/silencer/scope" attachment to pull that fist out. I don't know why, but that attachment fits in the bottom of the fist much, much better than the top. So, I recommend when transforming him that you turn the fists around before storing them. (The other one required my extreme scratching paperclip tool from Aurora to pull out the fist.) Here's a pic:

Outside of the fist opening saga, I absolutely love this guy! I'm glad I got him. Now, FP, bring me more of the others!!

He's in my POL. Not enough in there to ship yet, though I'm sorely tempted. This guy looks most excellent, and yes, thanks for the pics and heads-up about the fists :)!

thanks for the comparison pics Agamemnon, Boner is a bit big compared to Chromedome, but I like that their heads are the of similar size.

Headsortails, can you post a pic of the Headmasters standing with each other for scale? Stylor and both Duros'?

Honestly, it's hard for me to decide. I really like both.

Which do you feel is a better representation of Hardhead?

It depends on how I look at it, really. The alt mode of Hardbone has the more G1 homage feel and look, but then again, the colors of Universe Hardhead and the look of Head Robots hot head in bot mode do the same for me. Now if Hardbone could get the colors of Hardhead with Hot Head to go with him, it would be perfect! I can say this much- I do like Hot Head better than the Headmaster that came with Hardbone....

Andy of Kapow! Toys has this to say:

It is with regret that we will no longer be stocking or offering coverage of any upcoming Toyworld products due to the poor level of service and communications offered at wholesale level, if you currently have Aurora or Hardbone still on pre-order please contact us with regard to what you would like to do, we will be able to source these products for you but a full refund is also available, please accept our apologies but sadly Toyworld seem to have little to no interest in dealing with the European market. Kind regards, Andy

Sorry to hear that. You should still be able to get them via BBTS or TFS.
