Computron is nice and all but I'd rather they did the preMovie combiners first. Protectobots and Stunticons in the same scale as Giant and Crosssfire Superion and Bruticus are a must! Computron, Abomonus, even Predaking all take a backseat to them!

I was thinking the same thing. From what we've seen of Giant so far there isn't anything MakeToys could get away with not including in the green boxset. I'd like to know how much cheaper that version will be, if any. I'd prefer the yellow version but ultimately price will be the deciding factor.

I'm glad to see the Autbot combiners getting some 3rd party treatment and the Technobots are a great place to start. I know it can be frustrating that two 3rd parties are potentially tackling the same project, but if the alternative is two 3rd parties taking on different projects simultaneously then I'll take the option which doesn't tag-team my wallet.

I was looking at "Mobile Crane" and finally saw how the connection ports are implemented. They're under the hinged panels (one of the panels has HK 915 painted on it).

Shouldn't be long for Green Giant to show up for preoder at BBTS. The Yellow set is now sold out there.

Hook's feet lower legs are a mess. I am surprised they could have designed something a little better. Also, the flaps on Longhauls shoulders are ridiculous. But I am liking Devastator, minus the face.

It's hardly a zombie thread after only one week, especially when new members will occasionally post in threads that haven't been seen in several years because it came up in a Google search.

Critique critique critique. It was a joke. I should have added a smiley face. It seems people aren't quite as fast to offer a counterpoint when they see a smiley face.

:D

Actually, I would argue that the use of :) smiley faces :D, especially when correcting someone ;) can often be taken as sarcasm, insiting even further 'counterpoints' :P.
