I am so getting these. I would be down for some G1 Swords too since I missed the ones being sold on TFW2005. And a nice sword for Feral Rex that isnt oversized. But I can live without the silly claw hands.

Price, please!

These look cool. If the price is right, I'll probably get them. I've been focusing on energy melee weapons recently (between Dr. Wu & Renderform, I have too many, probably), and some regular rifles would be nice, even if I decide to pass them out to TFs that aren't Predacons.

You could just buy a Crazy Devy sword.

Would of preferred these Five guns link up to form a gestalt gun.

What I need most is for 3rd parties to create some replacement robot heads for Fortis, Bovis and Feral Rex. As I think those current heads are ugly and weird looking.

Not sure how you would even do that for G1-inspired guns.

You're pretty much in the minority there.

The one thing I do agree is that Feral Rex needs a new faceplate without the jack o lantern smile. I know they were going for toy accuracy, but the face is one thing I want cartoon accuracy. That smile is ugly.

Figured it would have been a nice homage to what Hasbro did for the 2000 Rid Bruticus combiner weapons. When all the tiny weapons linked up to form a Bruticus bigger weapon.

I probably won't get these as I rather like the guns these guys come with, but for those wishing for G1 accuracy, they look great.

If they are relatively cheap, I may get them anyway, as I like having spare guns to distribute around.

That's a very good price for a lot of guns and swords. I'll be getting these, but I suspect they won't go to the Predacons

I quite agree. These came in a lot cheaper than I was expecting. I'll bite, even if they don't end up with the predacons.

Ditto. If I get these it will be for other figures. For one thing because I don't intend to get Feral Rex (if I bite on a 3P Predaking it will be TFC's Ares) and for another because even if I did, they'd have nowhere to go in beast mode or the combined mode.

Do the MMC Predacons have 5mm fist holes? If so I'll definitely buy these weapons (because 5mm weapons rock).

Giving the weapons a second look over, I find Leo Dux's guns to be somewhat wanting. But I still like the other guns enough to get the set.

I'm picking up the set.

For $16, I just like having the spare weapons, but I probably won't use them for these guys.

Indeed, I can confirm that they are 5mm holes.

Excellent. Might spring for these then- more 5mm weapons is always good. I reckon I might give Fortis's gun to my Animated Arcee.

Think the price is very low for all that buyers get in this kit.

However, I gotta ask, Can the 1986 Predacons individual hand guns be used for the MMC Feralcons. If yes,then I think it's pointless buying this 3rd party Hands guns kit.

Wondering if these 3rd party hands guns can Also be used for the 1986 Predacon toys.
