Well, according to PSX, the release date is June 15. August is the speculation... 8-}

Well, my POL was big enough that, even without Divebomb or Before and After's Sixgun, I hit ship. At least now I can get a true sense of how big Predaking's gonna be.

Is it just Leo Dux in your POL, or Bovis & Fortis as well? Either way, let us know how you like them.

I got those two earlier. Just Leo for Transformer stuff. And I will.

I've gone ahead and set up my three Predacons so far on my giants shelf in what I like to think is a cool pose.

Okay, got Razorclaw. Robot mode is fantastic. I can't really find any major flaws with him. Lino mode is... good. It does what it needs to do.

One thing I like is the transformation isn't too difficult. I can follow it well enough. Combined mode is great. With the legs retracted there's no real gap with the waist armor.

All in all, worth it. But... Talon is delayed again?! Good friggin' LORD! :BOOM:

Glad to hear it all checks out on your end!

Also, I'm sure Talon will be magnificent. I just wonder what the hold up is/what element they're tinkering with. The wings? Is it tolerance issues, similar to the type that delayed Leo Dux? Wish we'd hear a bit more now, but I'm sure Peaugh will have more information later.

Hahaha, would you expect anything less? :lol:

Seriously, though, I'm happy to hear more positive things about Leo Dux. I'm still waiting to ship mine.

No... not really. :p And as usual, the silver lining is a better chance of not having everything drop at once and I can save up for it.

But it better be awesome when it finally ships. :HEADHURTS:

Agreed. I assume it's the wings causing all the problems since they can attach to so many different things in this set?

That would make sense, yeah.

Oh, and Razorclaw came with the main parts for the sword. The thing is flippin' HUGE! :shock:

Also kinda looks like I could use it for stirring soup and/or sauces.

A good Seinfeld reference is, IMHO, never 'too old'.

B E A Utiful!! =P~

I can just imagine Talon ripping some poor unsuspecting Autobot to shreds with those wings.

Part of me wants to buy a second one to repaint in blue and magenta colors:

Ha!

OT, but I love my Return of Marvel Legends Archangel. One of my faves.

Back on topic - funny how the wings look silver in most of the pics. Must be the lighting.

Remember when we were going to have fembots by this time? No fembots for you!

Just for fun here's a custom Leo Dux - Lio Convoy by Xavier Cal

by **guarayakha** » Sun May 04, 2014 2:08 am

Anyone here ever contacted MMC before? Do you guys use the Customer Support page on their site or just make a post on their FB, or just send them a PM on FB?

Cuz my Leo Dux came without the LED :BANG_HEAD:

. Not a biggie, but just slightly disappointed that I'll be missing out on a cool feature. Or perhaps someone would be so kind to take a photo of the LED unit so maybe I could find a replacement on my own? I'd appreciate the help

The LED is missing from the larger Predaking head? Did you put batteries in? If the light is mising completely, just wow.

Where did you order the figure from? I've had great luck with BBTS's customer service. If you ordered from them, just drop them a line and they'll likely help you out. I've read good things from others here about some of the other online retailers.

If you contact their FB page, they'll send you the email for Customer Support.

Replacement parts take 2 weeks to a month since they send them direct from the production facility in China.
