you mean she doesn't look like another stereotype with boobs and high heels? Sound the alarm!

starwarrior1227 wrote:the figure also doesnt look to good either.
Looks about as decent as any average beast bot from the Beast Era, Cybertron, or Animated has ever looked.

ill wait til i see a review of her for my final choice.
Yay.

1. If it was done correctly.And now that i look at her more, i dont think the colors could look better on the figure, meaning i think the choice of colors is a fail to begin with, and no, i dont hate the scheme.
2. I dont need boobs or high heels, it would just be a little bit more consistent if she looked more like a female.
3. Im not a fan of those either. My problems with her are her lack of wing mobility and what i fear is a lack of a neck or head joint. If the head can move up and down, i'll be fine.
4. .....

Look alright to me.

How come Predaking and Laserback have the dragon head predacon symbol?

Yeah, I meant this one:

There are apparently two Predacon symbols this time around. Hopefully, we'll see what comes out of this, eventually.

I think these colours suit the body type better than Ser-Ket, but his character sounds alot cooler, and to whoever is saying she doesn't look feminine- TFA Strika is female but she's as bulky as they come XD

OK, I'm missing something. Who's Ser-Ket?

Good gosh, that's a SHE?!

Predacon character from Rage of the Dinobots.

Think I might wait until I see what Takara does, will they be Dragaon microns?

If anything, they will be the weapons they wield here in America that transform in either animalistic forms similar to the Decepticons' Arms Microns or humanoid forms.

And the weird part is that one or more of the Jagex moderators overseeing Transformers: Universe appear to use the same emblem and variants of it. Predacons arriving to the upcoming MMO?

And now, through the power of Photoshop!

See, now if Hasbro or Takara had the sense to repaint Ripclaw into those colors, I would buy that. That actually looks really nice.

Reminds me of the prototypes of FOC Thundercracker and Kickback. But I hope Takara makes the toy look like it's from the show. :BOWDOWN:

Fixed it for you.

With the exception of the retail version of the FOC Combaticons and their combined form Bruticus (first ones that comes to mind), Hasbro makes fiction-accurate toys as well. Takara just makes them a bit more detailed and shinier.

The colors look really bad compared to what we saw on the packaging. Ugh. The only thing that will motivate me to get this is if she appears in the show. Otherwise, I'll save for the possible Ser-Ket.

Further precedence for this character being female is that Ser-Ket is also a female.

Hey, baby. Why don't you come on over and warm one of my shelves. It's cool. If your sister Ser-Ket sees a release she can join on in. As long as the price is right, my wife will understand...

Yeah, I'll stop now. :lol:

Because we just learned about it. Ultra Magnus called Ser-Ket a she in the latest Rage of the Dinobots issue.

I'm digging that beast mode. Great looking dragon. I'll most likely keep her in beast mode. :MAXIMAL:

I agree. Seems to me this figure would have benefitted from double jointed knees. I also kinda like the robot mode, but as a Transformer, I find lacking. Too much "lean forward and roar" for me.
