Our sponsor - Robotkingdom has updated their Facebook page with the new images of the fully combined 3rd party TFC Hercules.

The photos also show the size of Hercules. It is the same size of Cybertron Primus.

Check out the images we have mirrored below:














Seibertron, Ultimate Transformers Resource!

[El Duque]

I can't wait to own all of these!

[TimothyR]

would it really be that difficult for hasblo to give us a devastator like this.. i mean.. they do offer higher price range figures in retail stores. .. i just don't get it. it makes absolutely no sense to me. something like this would be a cash cow for them.. i bet it would sell a ton better than the recent "ultimate bumblebees" or unicron repaints. and most people would probably buy it, even if it were at a slightly higher price point than those two figures.

it's so frustrating.

[puttster3]

Your not the only one El Duque. I'm sure there will be people who use their Fansproject Bruticus and this Devastator to reenact thier battle in the show... with a different ending. A goliath vs an even bigger goliath. Actually, make that most. Comon, admit it, its a guilty pleasure.

Hasbro should just sub-contract these guys.

[necr0blivion]

Beautiful! Now we can only hope that there are no further delays on the next 4 pieces to come out. As it is, we are still waiting until April for the 6th figure (Mad Blender) but that was announced before Heavy Labor was even released after it's initial launch date.

Considering the price point for each of these, and knowing that several other premium 3rd party figures are coming out soon, I'm okay with waiting a bit longer. As long as I can be assured this is really happening. I hope TFC is able to release the remaining figures without any further issues like Exgraver and Heavy Labor have.

Or make something comparable and sell it for $10 bucks less

Still waiting to pick up Heavy labor, have they addressed the Qc issue with him yet? Tha wonky hip joint? For such a large cash commitment I kinda want to know its not gonna fall apart when I finish it :p

[Fistful of Energon]

I love everything about this set, but the head still doesn't sit well w/ me. Its ok, but I would really love to see a more G1'esque head sculpt. There you go IGear or Headrobots!

They will be supplying replacement parts for Heavy Labor with either Neckbreaker or Mad Blender.

I completely agree. I'm 100% sold on this project. I still plan on getting Giant as well but Hercules has my full attention right now. The size is incredible and an accomplishment in itself. Hopefully Structor and Dr Crank ship before Christmas.

My only concern, at the moment, would be Herc's left foot. The heel part of Structor in his "foot" mode kind of bothers me.

I've picked the wrong time to be completely out of money...

You and me both. Curse you Taxman......

[griftimus prime]

looks awesome. they should do computron next

[Jelze Bunnycat]

That just looks amazing, more sleek than Giant with the treads out of the way of the arms. Darn him for showing me Exgraver and Heavy Labor!

[Requiem Prime]

The complete Hercules will be something special. I hope they don't run into anymore issues. I never minded the size since he always held a more raw power vibe than the others, who were smarter or at least more focused. There is only one other combiner I'd accept being this huge.

[GetRightRobot]

BOOO YAWH!!! IN YA FACE SPACE CASE!! I love this guy. Ankles an absolute must. Some of the best hands ever on a bot or con. Can't wait.

Ok, you got me curious, are you refering to a Predaking figure?

[Sodan-1]

The size is great, but true to my never satisfied expectations, I wish he was bigger. Not sure I like having to wait for two or three more figures to be released before we get the fix for Heavy Labor. Just worried that there's going to be a backlog of fixes for each figure.

Take a little comfort in the fact the they have corrected the first issue with Exgraver in an extremely responsible way. I'm sure with impending future releases of this set, they want to work out the kinks as much as we do.

I love everything about this set, but the head still doesn't sit well w/ me. Its ok, but I would really love to see a more G1'esque head sculpt. There you go IGear or Headrobots!

There are rumors one of the TFC designers is working on a more G1 accurate head...not sure if it would be included with one of the later figs or sold separately, if it actually comes to be.

I can see this happening. I mean you kind of have to! you just cant go to all the trouble designing such a great figure and NOT do it the ultimate justice of giving it a tru Devy head

Have to agree. I will not be surprised if the G1 Devy head and cartoon accurate rifle come from a separate 3rd party joint. I can easily see iGear or the new Dr. Wu tackling a Geewun head and gun. So long as it's not Renderforms. All the love in the world to Venksta, great work, huge admirer, but I've never been able to complete a transaction with that guy.

That would be the dream. But right now they are tinkering with 5-bot teams from other franchises. Oh; and trying to take the suck out of PCC

[funeralthirst7]

Now this is how Devastator should be portrayed. Massive and intimidating. The G1 figure was far too small and I won't even get started on that movie version. Huge props for TFC Toys for finally giving us Devastator as he should be. I might even put my G1 Devastator into storage once I complete this.

[RK_Striker_JK_5]

God, this thing is gonna be huge! I can't wait for the other four!
