I feel a little sorry for Unique Toys and their take on Predaking, its getting so much flak, just like that other new 3rd Party company Planet X and their Genesis/Omega Supreme.
I would guess any potential buyer of the MMC version or the UT version will be checking the stress marks on their wallets as the MMC versions seem to cost at least a 3rd more than the UT equivalent?

SIXTH FIGURE ANNOUNCEMENT:
He will be a Sabre-toothed tiger, an established character and a nice counterpart to Rampage, so you can balance the combined mode out with two similar arms, and move Divebomb onto the rear of the figure.
We moved up the schedule of this announcement, as speculation was starting to spread like wild-fire. Some of it on the money, some of it less so.

I am with you. That extra $100 is going to hurt with all the goodies coming out this year.

Sounds cool regardless.
A retooled version of Rampage.
I won't confirm or deny who the character is yet, sorry.

If it makes you feel better, there's technically no such thing as a saber-toothed tiger. Prehistoric saber-toothed cats aren't closely related to any modern species of cat, being instead a separate subfamily of Felidae along with the two subfamilies of cats that now exist. So a saber-toothed cat would be less related to either Razorclaw or Rampage than the two are to each other, as far as their relative locations in the animal kingdom. Granted, it's a retool of Rampage, so the biological differences between a saber-toothed cat and a modern tiger might not be well-reflected, but one can hope.
