Nice artwork
And it says "Predacons rising" on the package
Hmm, anyone thinking what I'm thinking?

looks like it's a shiny version of the normal colour scheme, with maybe a few extra accent colours on there. not impressed really, but hey, at least I might be able to get this one...if TRU takes it on in the UK (as sometimes happens with Target exclusives)
Also looking for Universe Repugnus and Overbite, Frostbite and Longhorn and any Webdiver toys.

I think he refers to the "different deco" claim, which upon first sight doesn't seem true.

Hasbro has lied to us before though

I think I'll stick with the original releases and see what Takara is going to come out with.

Surprised it isn't vastly different from the other version. Half-expected Hun-Grr to be more G1 and the others based on Shattered Glass/Technobots or Monstructor or something.

This is what Bruticus felt like for me:
Hasbro is doing a combiner!
...But it looks terrible.
But the stock photos were badly transformed!
...But it still isn't all that great, even when transformed properly.
But at least it's being released as a whole set, to make them easier to get!
...With bizarre, non-G1 colors.
And I'm afraid that's what this will feel like as well.

What recent decision of Hasbro can't the above picture apply to?

I honestly don't understand the hate that is going around about their combined form. It's a flippin' Legends-scaled figure for Chrissakes, you can't make something that small and expect modes to be as gorgeous as standard Deluxe or above.

Agreed. Not to mention it didn't have to be a combiner at all but just 5 separate Legion figures that happened to have similar names and appearances of Abominus's parts.
I'm really happy with these guys. They make for a great set of Legion figures and are also a pretty cool combiner (that even have weapons that can combine). I'll hopefully be able to get all the individual Legions as well as eventually get this set as well.
Honestly, I'm just happy to see more combiners. If for whatever reason (perhaps cost reasons) they can't make many combiners in larger scales it'd be great if they can make more in the Cyberverse scale, whether that's with Legions, Commanders and Legions or even all Commanders.
