The Energon Pub

Im looking forward to this guy. Im glad Ive held out on shipping my POL. It would be nice to get Talon, Six Sigma, Gauntlet/Piston, new Mania King, and Roadbuster/Skybyte all in the same shipment. Cmon BBTS...hit my card up !!! (AKA shut up and take my money)

Some updated images .







Kapow.

Rampage is definitely the weakest of the bunch. Nice robot mode. Cat mode is meh. Well he will make a great arm at least.

I think he's on par with the rest of them. I like his robot mode slightly better than the others, and his beast mode slightly less so it evens out. I tend to like sleeker TFs more than beefier ones, but that's just me.

I want to get Catilla anyway, if only to have one of the Feral Cons in bot mode to mess around with. But that side profile and backpack view will determine whether I use him as an arm or not.

This is a pic with 2 Talons combined and one of them is making a full back pack if this helps .

Thanks for posting those pics!

It's OK - not really great or ideal. I think I prefer Talon as arm with only the wings as Leo's backpack.

Thanks for the pics, Genocide. I think I'll be using Divebomb as an arm, here.

I'll probably just use Divebomb's wing pack even when I have Felisaber attached as an arm, but maybe I'll like it better in hand.

I just had a thought. And yes, you can smell the smoke from wherever you live. But the last two, will they come with instructions for assembly of the big sword and gun? Thanks to a video I got the sword mostly assembled, but the gun's another story. And I don't know about the last two sets of pieces for the sword, either.

So the 6 robot combiner mode is one big joke. Predaking doesnt need a kibble backpack. Its pointless and ugly.

Like the added Sculpting details R07 Felisaber has. like the longer saber tooth tiger beast teeth and the different robot face sculpt.

If I decide to by MMC Predaking. Definately won't be using the Six figures to combine the Gestalt. Think using the full Divebomb figure as Predakings Back-Jet packs looks too gigantic and terrible from the gestalt back view.

Probably won't buy Felisaber as I don't need Six members to form Predaking. Especially not at 3rd party prices. If Hasbro released all Six toys in the USA retail stores for $25 each. Then I would of had no problem buying Six toys.

Going to hold out a few more months until 2014 SDCC and NYCC ends. Don't want to lay out over $500 for the MMC Predacons. Then get sucker punched in the gut by Hasbro revealing that they plan to release the Generations Preacons-Predaking combiners toys in 2015.

I agree with you. But if they're releasing Felisaber anyway, it's nice that they've integrated it somehow. People dig that sort of thing (I could care less).

I'm just happy I'll have a Feral Con to play around with without having to disassemble Feral Rex. Really, that's all I care about at this point.

And remember, Felisaber is going to be a PSX exclusive. It won't be available for general release. At least that was the most recent news.

I don't think I'd call it a joke. Just another option for people. I like options.

Damn, really? That sucks . I was actually thinking of getting Felisaber just because I like the look of that cyber-tiger's head. I'm not getting their not-Predaking, but I was considering getting that not-Catilla. Hopefully they'll change their mind and it will show up on BBTS, otherwise I guess I'll be skipping that too.

For the giant arm cannon, pretty much everything pegs into Leo's gun, which will be included with Tigris for price reasons, so there's not much you can do to assemble it now.
The final touches on the Oppenheimer Sword are Talon's swords, which go in the gap between Bovis's knives and Leo's swords, and Tigris's daggers, which form the guard.

Yeah, that all makes sense. I did know about the gun coming with Tigris. That's a good thing, having the big extra parts be spread out among the team members.

Oh I planned on getting the catilla figure to for fun. I was just calling the backpack mode for talon a joke. It reminds me of FP deisels kibbled out armored up robot mode which was done just tto satisy some collectors obsession with parts storage. Ive never been a fan of that sort of thing.

I didnt know it was going to be an exclusive though ? Who is PSX ? I never heard of them. Any links for this retailer ?

Planet Steel Express, a site at least loosely associated with MMC. (Might be like a Fans Project Core type of arrangement.)

However, as a bit of news, perhaps, the Mastermind Creations site that had previously listed Felisaber as a PSX exclusive has removed that wording from the entry. Maybe there was enough interest that MMC decided on a general release. After all, Zinnia is still listed as a PSX exclusive and I know I have her preordered at BBTS.

(I still think the "joke" label and following commentary is a bit denigrating to those of us who like the look and like being able to store kibble in a clever and decent looking way...)

Orio of TFW

See, this image right here makes me want to break out some blue and purple paint and make an Archangel homage. I love these wings. C'mon MMC! Daddy would like to ship his POL!

He's supposed to be shipping out this month, right? He BETTER be shipping out this month!

Ah, yes. I think I remember that, too. Well, he'd better!

According to Peaugh, he's already on the way to retailers.
