Have you contacted them about it? And if so, how was their response?


No, as I've mentioned that fortunately the Hexatron box itself was not damaged badly so I'm ok with it and don't feel the need to get it replaced. But they should really pack the item better for shipping and use stronger shipping boxes.

Well, you should at least let them know that even though the contents were fine, that additional packing material should have been added. How would they know if there's no feedback. I'm not trying to "white-knight" them, but it's just good practice. Like when you buy from Amazon, they usually ask you to give feedback for the packaging and see if they can fix the issue. It's up to you. :D

I understand your point there. Maybe I will contact them.

I'd have probably gone for Felisaber had he been available through the normal channels, but there's no way I'm placing a special, possibly one-off order for an optional figure from an unknown seller. PSX had better get a number of pretty spectacular exclusives. Truth be told, I can't help but think Feral Rex is going to look worse with Talon's main body on his back. Isn't the backpack going to look a little bulky?

The main team looks great. Amazing. Awesome. Epic.

Did I miss something? Is the only way to get this 6th figure is through MMC's store?

Correct. Some of the other stores like BBTS might buy them from that store and resell them, but the intention is that it's made to order from MMC's store.

Some of the discussion came about in the MMC Arcee thread. Daimchoc posted this link to MMC's homepage:

http://www.mastermind-creations.com/collection.html

Which led to the discussion about PSX (Planet Steel Express) and the exclusive nature of some of the offerings. Basically, MMC is going to manufacture to the preorders so there is not any extra stock, and sell those through PSX. I guess the Grey Prototype Hexatron was sold through PSX.

Yes sir. Super Nova Hexatron was only available via PlanetSteelExpress.com and limited to only 120 pieces.

So if you don't get the 6th member, can you still build Predaking with 2 arms?

Of course... Felisaber (the 6th member) is completely optional. By default, Talon is the left arm and Tigris is the right arm. If you get Felisaber, you'll just move Talon to the back and it will become a backpack of sorts for FeralRex. This is what they were referring to as a more "balanced" combiner... It's more symmetrical.

Yes. All pictures shown so far have been of Predaking in his famous five-member configuration. The optional sixth member is just that: optional. It's a retool of Rampage into a saber-toothed cat so the arms match closer and you don't have to remove Divebomb's wings. For the people that don't think a bird opposite a puma is a big deal, and who don't mind removing a pair of wings (probably most of us), classic formation works just fine. If you want to try something new, then get the sixth member. They're not going to make a crucial part of the combined mode an exclusive, that would be a Microsoft dick move.

Yeah, I caught that. Still doesn't mean I know them.
