The jewel doesn't bother me (though it should be a chomey red) but the first revision was good enough. I was even ok with the initial yellowy sword. But now to see all the yellow gone it just looks bland. Predaking is yellow AND gold, I think his sword looked good when it was the same.

At the same time, I'm kinda like "damn DNA, **** or get off the pot". >:oP

So this isn't Generations, but who cares :lol:

Shockwave's Lab, weapons for Transmetal Rattrap and Cheetor:

While I am ecstatic over this, I'm simultaneously furious that I still can't get a proper chromey sword upgrade for OG BW Dinobot, or an Optimal Megatron BM head replacement :-(

When did they release them :???:

And why is Rattrap's gun blue?

Does anyone have TDW's Computron upgrades and if so, are they any good? I'm mainly interested in them for the hands and feet, as PE's feet are a bit so-so and the hands are worse at holding things than the stock HFGs.

I'm interested in their set for Bruticus, I just haven't pulled the trigger. Their handfeets look sweets.

I think D-Max has their set for the PotP Dinos and he seemed to really like it.

I'm eyeballing PotP Abominus upgrades myself.

Oh yeah those Abominus upgrades look like the bomb(inus). I also kinda want the Starscream upgrades because A: It's pretty much just hands and feet, but with a bonus rifle and cloak, which is awesome- also for the crazy custom idea I have for a combiner made entirely out of Starscreams, it's ideal.

I know I'm responding to an old quote here, but..

(wasn't quite counting the sword since it's an optional thing that's specific to one version of max)

Perhaps. But the sword is his primary weapon in that version as far as fiction goes (I don't know if he ever uses either of the handheld guns in The Headmasters, in fact). It's also the weapon that best takes advantage of his increased articulation :-P

It looks like a really nice king sword but to me it doesn't look like it suits Predaking well. It needs some more spikes and curves and stuff like that.
And why is the gem teal? That doesn't match Predaking at all.

Au contraire, the design of that sword suits a G1-based Predaking perfectly:

See?

As for the gem... a red one would match Predaking's colors better, but a teal one still goes nicely with the gold of the sword.

Are those die-cast metal parts or just painted plastic?

No idea, but I'd assume plastic as they've never done die-cast pieces before.

Can anyone with the PE torso upgrade set for CW Menasor tell me if it makes him actually good in combined mode? I know without it he's absolutely pants, but he certainly LOOKS good with the upgrade. I want a decent CHUG Menasor, but would I be better off waiting to see if that TW replacement Motormaster is any good?
