Speaking of Abominus, doesn't he come with a DVD? I could've sworn that the multipack came with one.

Why are the names all mixed up on the Abominus box?

Sadly not. The box is big enough to have fit one in though, deceptively big :-(

Without some scrutiny a lot of parents may well think this is more worth its £25 price tag than it actually is.
Still, he is cooler than I thought he was now I see him in person.

The Abominus looks great and Sky Lynx better than I thought.
Really feeling the packaging design as well on these.

Only Twinstrike and Rippersnapper have their names switched.

Due credit goes to my good buddy Bryan who sent in pictures with his phone from the scene! I was merely the messenger who he asked to mirror the photos and send news to all the sites.

It looks to me that the are referring to:

Rippersnapper as Windrazor
Windrazor as Hun-Gurrr
Hun-Gurr as Twinstrike
Twinstrike as Rippersnapper

Blight looks to be the only one correct or am I looking at it wrong.

WHY did they swap the names of the Terrorcons on the packaging?! WHY?!

Hit me with a list in the usual fashion and I'll keep my eyes peeled for you, we do our grocery shopping in Tesco anyway!

Interesting that these are in Euro packaging and no sign of Cryo-Predaking?

Incompetence and general ignorance of the products they sell?

I'm glad I washed my hands before taking these photos haha!

Darksteel or Red-Grape as I'm now going to call him (receipt just said voyager with red grape right underneath it), is pretty sweet. I love the blue and orange colour scheme. The robot head looks a little sloppy though, paint-wise.

Irony at its finest :lol:

Grimwing's Japanese repaint is called Budora, which can be translated as "battle dragon" or "grape dragon".

Didn't have them at my local Tesco last night but I'm still hopeful. How much are the Legion 2 packs?

Oh, and btw, extra large box or no, I think Abominus is worth £25. It's 5 cyberverse for a fiver each, which is about right, plus no hunting to complete the set.

I think the 2 packs were £10 if I remember correctly? The machine wars deco on prime looks nice in his with scourge.
