Yes. Now go to your room and don't play with yourself.

Problem with 3 of these was availability. Drillhorn and United Nosecone were only available in Japan and Titans Return Twintwist had limited availability too.

Or an awesome dragon mode!
Anyway, always nice to read these lists. Better luck making us whiney BW II fanboys happy next time.

Your right, they don,t have an awesome dragon mode, but neither does BW Galvatron

They don't but I just thought of someone else who does:
Windchill the yeti bot!!!
He transforms into an arctic drill tank with a spinning drill when you push a button.Or an awesome dragon mode!

Haha, funny enough, I do have a top 5 Neo toys in the works, I hope that can be a decent enough consolation prize.

You cannot since Zetar's peg is on his head, not the drill and the peg for Hasbro's Nosecone is perpendicular to the drill.
The only one that works is the powerdasher that uses the Brunt mold (but it's not a great look).
