I have the same feeling but probably won't use the word boring but lonely. That's why I decided to wait and not open my Fortis and put my Bovis back in to box and wait until all Predacons are assembled.
For me, since I don't buy and own that many............
First is the FP Protector set. The armor didn't have the feeling to make Hot Rod to Rodimus Prime and the trailer was useless except the alt mode. The shoulder's articulation is also oddly positioned and designed. I've sold it and so far, it's the first and only 3rd party stuffs I've sold.
Then is the FP Defender. I got him second handed. Luckily the knees are okay. I then have to create a pair of artificial heels for him to be able to stand and pose. The tiny ring on the peg thing of the blades that is used to peg in on the helicopter mode broke off but it was fixed by applying some super glue. The fiddly transformation doesn't bother me that much and he is now still my classics Springer. Hasbro's thrilling 30 Springer was nice but too big for my scale taste.
The left shoulder connector of my FP Bruticus also broke off but at least it is still able to connect.
With that being said, yeah, I'm pretty much done with FP. Not interested in their stuffs anymore. Don't even bother the Stunticons.
