Also i did notice fansproject menasor was much smaller. I love the size of tfc combiners.

That doesn't mean much, we never know exactly what is on the horizon. Besides, it has been proven that the two different sizes we have been getting are profitable, so it is only a matter of time. Might take a year or two, but it will happen.Gauntlet101010 wrote:TFC hasn't announced a Menasor at all yet. An alternative may be a long time coming if at all.

Waiting might've been the better decision. Herc is still in stock after all this time and the three Uranos releases haven't sold out yet. If TFC keep both teams in stock, the next time I buy a gestalt of theirs I might wait as well.Stormrider wrote:good topic question. I have been wondering the same thing. I am interested in TFC Superion but want to wait until all the figures come and the reviews are done. But hope there will be enough figures left on the market at the time to order. Ideally, I would like a second edition to fix any issues before purchasing.

I'm not holding my breath, nor am I only talking about TFC (I also mentioned MMC, you just said TFC). Also, I'm not assuming anything, a larger Stunticon set will happen at some point because there is money to be made from it. Like I said, it could be a few years, but when we are getting plenty of other options atm I'm not that fussed if I miss out on FP's take on it if it means I'll have the cash to buy the better stuff that's slated for release this year. FP are handling the release of their Stunticons badly with not releasing proper images of MM and Menasor, and not at least giving us a ballpark price for MM. The best images we've had of MM and Menasor were an accidental leak.Gauntlet101010 wrote:Arctorro wrote:That doesn't mean much, we never know exactly what is on the horizon.

It doesn't mean much?? You're just assuming they'll do it. But they've already got the Dinobots combienr prototyped and the Starcats combiner as well. AND they've teased the Predacons as their next project. They could just as easily do any other combiner, TF or otherwise ... or they could go back to doing other figures like Reflector. I wouldn't hold my breath on TFC specifically laying out another Menasor option. There may not BE another option any time soon.

You seem to be assuming that those BADLY received Dinobot and Starcat (wanna be Protectobots) gestalts are still in production even though nothing more has happened with them. Like I said, we don't know what the 3P companies are planning and just need to wait and see.
Btw, did we get any prototype images of hints about Uranos before it was announced?
There is no penalty. My current PoL has 3 deleted purchases and the money paid is turned into store credit. For someone who is guaranteed to be spending money with them again it works out great.Agamemnon wrote:BBTS's pile of loot can help defray some of the shipping costs of each component, yet still allow for the amortization of the figure costs. (Does anybody else have experience "returning" a figure from POL? Does it cost a penalty, or is BBTS really customer focussed with this feature?)
I know I would never have bought UT's version for 2 reasons; 1) it is bloody ugly and I really can't stand looking at it, 2) they are just too damn expensive for deluxe size figures, even with the price drop that happened after MMC's prices were announced. So I would've been waiting for something better (bigger).Agamemnon wrote:My personal take on getting FP's Menasor versus waiting on another, larger version has to do with what has been announced and how long I have already waited for the big guy. Perhaps TFC's Predaking will be awesome, but since MMC and UT have their versoins, and they look pretty good to spectacular, I think TFC is going to lose some sales from people like me. Any future Menasor will likely suffer from lost sales by not competing with FP now. The Herc-Giant debate was fun. UT-MMC debate has been less fun because it appears that MMC is giving us so much more for the money. Still, if there had been no MMC, I would have bit on UT for my neo-classics Predaking and not purchased MMC down the line.

It all depends on MM, if he is $80 - $90 max, then they will be on par with TFC. Any more and they are a bit expensive. And as to the size, when compared to Giant they are fairly good, when compared to Herc not so much. Also depends on what other figures you compare them to, Classics seekers are a little undersized so they'd go well together. Autobot cars will look a lot bigger next to them so if you are wanting to set a scene where the Stunticons are owning the Autobots on the road it might not workKup98ss wrote:All of this talk about FP's menasor being smaller has got me thinking. He should be smaller because cars are way smaller than jets and construction equipment. Still when you bring up pricing FP's menasor isn't as good of a deal as hercules or uranos.
I'm expecting him to be around the same size as Giant and Brut, but we don't know exactly. The cars are small, but with MM acting as the legs as well we can only guess what Menasor's size will be. He should definitely scale well with the smaller gestalts, but it is all speculation atm.Stormrider wrote:Just curious if there is a confirmation that Menasor will be small. It does seem to make sense looking at the size of the cars. But didn't we see a picture showing Menasor's calves made up of a combination of Motormaster's trailer plus the cars? Is there any possibility that this figure is the same size as FP Bruticus or MT Giant?

He is supposed to be 11.5 inches tall, but I don't know if that measurement is to the top of his head or shoulders.Kup98ss wrote:He looks great but he looks like he will be much smaller than TFC's offerings. Thanks for the pic.
