Seriously? A fourth Unique Toys/DX9 3rd party figure article in 6 weeks? Don’t blame me, blame what must currently be the most prolific 3rd party company on the scene. Not even a month has passed since the second UT Ordin combiner limb “Alberich” hit online stores and their stock of 3rd member “Fenrir” is already on its way. O-03 Fenrir is of course modern day IP theft speak for “Sinnertwin”, the two-headed Terrorcon that helped form Abominus. The name “Fenrir” makes reference to the giant wolf creature (with very much one head) from Nordic mythology, staying consistent with the naming theme employed thus far with Troll and Alberich.

Dang, Maz! this just dropped into my POL at BBTS today and your review's up. And you've got me really wanting him home, now.

Another excellent review (and pictures) by Maz. I really want to jump on this train soon, but I'm busy catching up with a few older items that I'm worried about selling out soon. Maybe I'll catch up by the 4th member. These guys look amazing!

I'm disappointed that they went with a non-standard configuration by placing Blot as a leg.

I just can't invest in the set with such a needless divergence from how Abominus looks in all his fictional appearances.

He's only had one instance where Blot and Cutthroat were switched and it was the DW profile series.

I just don't get it.

I wonder if the engineering of the figure would allow for a limb swap with those two if somebody does some custom parts. Im no fan of the IDW configuration either, but like the individual bots aesthetics and Ordin enough to go all in. Im just waiting on Hun-Grr to ensure torso mode is no taller than Feral Rex. If I can get the money shot I need to make that judgement I would buy em now. Are there any other pics of Ordin with a scale reference besides the one with Wheelie ? I would love to see Shajaki do his magic one more time to estimate Ordin's height like he did with Hasbrostator.
