Move aside CrazyDevy! If you're looking for 'that' sword to replace the rather inadequate original for your Generation One Predaking, then you might have to consider TFclub Junkion Blacksmith. They will be releasing new hands, shoulders guns, and a gigantic sword for your gestalt beast. The sword can also be wielded by Masterpiece Grimlock. No ETA on the release of this add-on, but we'll sure to keep you posted. Check out the images below, courtesy of ACToys!

Take that, CrazyDevy!

I might consider this, if the price is nice.

Didnt TFclub make a prototype of a scratch built predaking a while back? i remember seeing it before on one of the forums here but when i try looking again, the pictures arent there anymore, kinda unfortunate since it look really cool. :-(

I'm disappointed that it doesn't quite have the twin spikes at the base like Razorclaw's original, making CrazyDevy's look a lot better by comparison.

On the other hand, FINALLY someone did those shoulder cannons that I've been saying were the first upgrade CrazyDevy, Igear, or any other 3rd party company should have done the minute they announced they were tackling Predaking!!! Hell, I'll shell out for that sword and hands if it's the only way to get them...assuming they can also point forward. I probably shouldn't get too excited until I see a painted test shot.

Also, I'd say the sword clearly transforms, having a normal-sized Razorclaw sword inside twin folding blades. I'm not sure what the outer parts turn into, but the modular aspect and huge curve to the tip makes it look more like an upgrade for Magnaboss than Predaking.

Still, these pics blow all of Crazydevy's attachments out of the water. Can't wait to see more!

Just making sure I got this right- this will be a TFClub exclusive? I think I'm gonna fet this instead of the CD version. The hands and guns come with this too?

Not an exclusive of any sorts, as it' not made by the Transformers Collector's Club. TFclub is just a third party/distributor from Asia.

No not the official TFCC, this company is just called TFClub.

Knowing TFClub this thing will cost 20.
I want just the sword as it's badass and I don't have a Predaking.

I know what you mean and it was "just" a kitbash made by one of their forum members. Although the sword and hands look like they've been inspired by the kitbash.

The Masterpiece Grimlock sold me. Now that's a Terrifying Damnation Sword

You know what that swords looks like to me? If you look real close at the pics more so at the one with Grimlock it looks like the large swords comes apart into smaller swords most likely five swords for the predacons. Just a thought. Either way I’m getting this.

I believe you're right.
I looks like two pares of identical swords with a 5th unique one in the middle, and an extra handle.

Wow that is one clever design! :shock:

That is interesting. I wonder if it'll be compatible with the Colossus team...
