I'll take it! It will be nice to have an official updated Predaking. Just like Devy, I'll take whatever limitations where imposed on the individuals as long as the combined mode is fun, since that's what he will be in 90% of the time.

So is it just me or does the scaling seem really off? They said it's 5 voyager figures but unless the limbs make up the entire leg (not just knee down) and the arms make up a bit of the torso Razorclaw is going to be MASSIVE and Divebombs wings will be too big for his body.

<---Looks over at his Long Haul figure, and grins.

What I do see is slight variations in brightness, the image is not 100% black throughout.

Wonder if somebody could Photoshop it to up the brightness, to see what details we could make out...

Your wish is my comman......



...aaaaaaah, well not much difference really.

Nice, you can see some of the details, of the lion head and the hands look strange almost built in!

[Hellscream9999]

Such a beast, I can't wait to get him, having only 5 figures to design seems to have worked out so much for him, everyone looks so solid and well proportioned, just, cannot wait

[Wireless_Phantom]

Makes me wonder if we we'll get a proper reveal at toyfair. My fingers are crossed, that's for sure!

Should be the star, as, if it's anything like the others, this should be out at the beginning of summer, so it should be a near production model I think.

Will all the members be part of a wave, or is it strictly going to be a boxed set like Devastator was?

I'd say boxset, he's this years "Titan Class" isn't he?

That's what we were led to believe.

[D-Maximal_Primal]

Super stoked for the full reveal!

[Emerje]

Looking good. The torso appears to extend which probably would keep Razorclaw just a bit bigger than the rest, not necessarily Leader sized. Between the extending torso and non-integrated feet he should be more than capable of getting to Devastator's 18". One advantage these guys have is they don't need extra joints to form their combiner parts (aside from maybe Razorclaw) so they should have normal articulation and no missing standard joints like elbows.

I agree that we should be seeing this at Toy Fair. Hopefully Hasbro gives us a preview Friday.

Surprising absolutely no-one, but always nice to have more confirmation, Australian toy retailer and distributor The Little Toy Company has posted pre-order listings for the third wave of Transformers: Power of the Primes, plus the latest offering from Hasbro in the Titan class category: Power of the Primes Predaking!

The combined mode of the Predacons, featuring for sure the wings of Divebomb and the other Voyager class figures Rampage, Tantrum, Headstrong and Razorclaw (says the listing), is listed at 195 AUS$ (approximately 153 USD at the time of writing).

NEW PRE-ORDER FOR TRANSFORMERS POWER OF THE PRIMES *

too bad about Volcanus.
such a wasted opportunity for greatness

[Va'al]

Directly from the floor at Times Center in New York City, at the Hasbro showroom part of New York Toy Fair 2018, we have a couple of Power of the Prime full reveals at least, as seen in the panel coverage posted here.

In this post, we share his majesty Predaking, the fully combined Predacon team, consisting of the five voyagers Divebomb, Headstrong, Rampage, Tantrum Torox, and team leader Razorclaw. We have a couple of shots from the table, though better galleries will appear later this evening, including close ups of the limbs and the table's surroundings. Check it out below, and let us know what you think in the Energon Pub!

[Evil Eye]

...Oh.

That isn't good.

[Randomhero]

...Oh.

That isn't good.

You’re right...ITS AWESOME AND I CANT WAIT!!

-grabs popcorn to have while watching people complain about the hands and waist and accusations of being too blocky-

[ZeroWolf]

Is there something wrong with preds left arm? It looks like it's bent at an odd angle. Any pictures of the Prime master that goes with it?

[Burn]

I don't mind him. He's definitely slimmed down since his G1 days, which makes me wonder if Hasbro is now into body shaming (considering poor Moonracer and her Prime Master gimmick)

[DMSL]

Predaking looks great, but where is his sword, he needs his sword.

[Evil Eye]

...Oh.

That isn't good.

-grabs popcorn to have while watching people complain about the hands and waist and accusations of being too blocky-

But it isn't good at all. The individual robots and beasts look like trash, the combined mode is a mess proportionally, there's stickers everywhere because apparently tampographs ain't in the budget anymore, the fingers are inexcusable for that size, and there isn't even a sword.

Generations is dead.

But hey, at least the Studio Series looks good.

[Va'al]

Updated!

[Burn]

After seeing Hasbros official pics of Predaking, I retract my earlier statement.

It looks like they've modelled him on the Kre-O version. And I don't know how they did it, but they've made the individual modes blockier than G1.

[Lore Keeper]

The toy does indeed seem to be missing a sword. I suppose it shouldn't be surprising. None of the PotP combiners have had dedicated weapons so far. This may just be the direction Hasbro decided to go.

[Emerje]

So is this Onyx exclusive to Predaking or is this our only Onyx and we wont get one with a shell?

I like these, I'd say they're on par with what we've gotten from the rest of Prime Wars. They aren't MPs, we should have always expected beasts just as unarticulated as Alpha Trion. After what Hasbro did to Devastator this feels like an improvement. I do hope Takara Tomy repackages him for Unite Warriors being a Titan (like they did with Trypticon for Legends) and toss in some weapons (like they did for Devastator).

[shajaki]

Hmm.

After Devastator, this is pretty much what I expected. I'm not particularly wowed, but I bet King-mode will be solid and fun.
