Many thousands of hours and decades of transforming and that one is the only one I know of that takes 45 minutes AND directions!! Most of them take about three seconds.

I transform him at roughly 7-8 minutes now, depending on how many times the doors pop off. I bought him loose, 100% complete, no instructions.

This^. I love my Tripredicus, though I used Telemocha Gimlet and Telemocha Motorarm for mine along with Cicadacon. It made for a really nifty looking combo .DISCHARGE wrote:Flux Convoy wrote: He's barely a step above Tripredacus and he's crap.
Hey now, Tripredacus is da Boss.
Agreed. Magnaboss is by far my favorite Beast Wars combiner, and one of my favorite combiners of all time, right up there with big Herc.Orin McMonigle wrote:Magmatron>>Magnaboss

But after seeng JTMitchell87's video review, it look like the eagle 'bot, silverbolt, kinda suffer from the infamous GPS. That is really unfortunate because this look like a very cool and interesting TF. I wonder if the Korean version have the GPS fixed on Silverbolt?
I may have to pass on this very cool, very tribal looking thing....

Tripredacus is a neat one but much simpler and you don't really need the instructions.

Why does that matter?
I don't need the instructions for any of the transformers I have. Once I do it, I know it.
Still I think tripredacus is one of the best combiners ever. Each one has a very solid beast mode, their robot modes may be lacking a bit, but they're still decent. Then his combined form is really nice and monstrous and well put together.
Magnaboss is...eh. Only prowl is decent from that bunch, and even he isn't that great. Silverbolt is like, all wings, ironhide is goofy looking, except in elephant mode.

When buying a very expensive and old TF like Blackzarrak, be very aware of that fact.

But you don't KNOW so it's you who is awfully presumptuous. This is the point where you should feel pretty foolish but I imagine you won't.
