Site sponsor Robotkingdom has updated their facebook page with new images of TFC Toys two remaining Hercules figures, Neck Breaker and Mad Blender. The mystery surrounding the final color of Mad Blender's cement mixer continues, it now appears to have a green interior with purple skin. If these images are any indication Neck Breaker will come with the optional visor for their Hercules mode. Images mirrored below.

Update: According to a comment by Robotkingdom the outside of Mad Blender's cement mixer will be green on the final product.

Those two look great. I do hope one of them includes instructions on assembling the gun, at least.

Mixmaster is a beast!! I can't wait to get the set!

[Gauntlet101010]

Maybe you can take off the purple skin if you want a green berrel?

Hate how the hands fit in with these guys. Or rather, how they hang off the back and look really conspicuous. Oh, well. That's what the parts drawer is for.

Anyhow, these guys look fantastic.

[Mkall]

Looks like 'breaker can wear the Dev visor as well? And I'm digging how they did Mad Blender's barrel/weapons. It would explain why we saw green barrel then a purple barrel.

[Blurrz]

The more and more I see of these guys individually, the more I think that Hercules needs to be a part of my collection..

Time to start getting more $ by rocking the slots..

[Rated X]

I can honestly say that Bonecrusher is the worst of the 6 in terms of G1 accuracy. Maybe its because I flat out dont like the black chest and pistons on his shoulders.

I like mixmaster, but I hope you can keep his barrel on his back G1 style. Im no fan of all those guns mounted to his body. It looks silly. Just give him a big a** gun like the G1 toy and Im good.

[UltraPrimal]

Mixmaster looks freaking badass! Must be all the guns.

Damn. I think I might have to buy these now. Any news on if they'll do a gift set of all 6?

[noctorro]

They look good, though not that accurate.
I actually like the option of his barrel coming apart.
I think it's optional in robot mode.

I like the whole set, but Devastator's head is so not Devastator. That's one of the things I love about that design.

It should be more like this with the visor.

I really want to get a third party figure, Crossfire is to expensive and only ships within US. Hercules is expensive, but I would really love to get Giant. But that one's not out yet :s

Is there any word on some third company making a G1 head for Hercules? That would seal the deal for me.

looking good cant wait for preorder for these 2 & makeittoys version

[Sodan-1]

ARGH!!! The black chest of Neckbreaker! It's hideous! TFC, please, please, please paint the back of the dozer blade green. Robot mode would look so much cooler while vehicle mode would retain it's semi-realistic look. On another note, has anyone seen a photo of 'Breaker wearing his dozer feet while his knees are bent?

And what's going on with Mad Blender??!! It's getting beyond a joke. Is he going to have a green drum or a purple drum? Will it contain green weapons or purple weapons? I don't care what anyone says from this point on. I won't believe anything until I have the figure in my hands, and even then I'll get a second opinion.

As figures go, these are still brilliant. Just need the colours sorting out.

Theres a picture WAY back that shows all of the weapons (excluding the barrel guns) and how to combine them. For instance Heavy Labor has the barrel, attached to his gun is Structor's gun, then Dr Crank's gun. Ontop of Structors gun is Exgraver's gun. Below Structor's gun is Neckbreaker's gun which is attached to Madblender's gun which is below Dr Crank's gun. Madblender's gun is the handle.

I am pretty sure you can keep the guns on the back, atleast from my understanding of the parts.

Then whats the point in asking?

I hope the purple comes off easy. I'm still wary of how that giant patch of purple it's going to look combined.

I agree on the hand location, I know that the arms have it harder, but they integrated the head nicely. Speaking of which, it's funny the demand for a G1 accurate head when the art really was a face on a block. (yes, I'm aware Giant pulls off the general impression nicely, it's still funny)

I don't think anyone wants one 100% like that. If people are like me they want that smae look, but with some added details.

Speaking just for myself, it's the old movie that did it. Just seeing Devestator tear into Autobot City just ingrained that version of the head into my mind above the other versions.

Rhetorical, my friend. Just highlighting what I was talking about.

[RK_Striker_JK_5]

I've got Hook and really, his head is fine! The light-piping is intense and it looks good.

[Rodimus Minor]

Man they look amazing

[kirbenvost]

Well, I guess we know who's coming with the visor now, huh?

[Requiem Prime]

I'm still not digging the black chest. Clearly with the drum, they are willing to paint a portion purely for aesthetics. The did it for Heavy Labor too. That said, I don't mind the pistons on his shoulders.

As for the legs, as far as I can tell from the shots, the bars with the blades are set below the knees, so he should be able to bend fine (which would be great because it's more viually interesting and less kibbly)

[DecepticonFinishline]

Okay... Soo... Most of these pieces of Hercules are capable of hold Exgraver's scoop.

Whyyyyyyyyyyyy....?


The black on Neckbreaker is a bit offputting. Otherwise I am satisfied. I really like the Madblender weapons.

[009*]

So are these guys due out in January or later?

[Rodimus Minor]

I think its January or Febuary

[Kibble]

BTW, RK has noted the drum will indeed be green, not purple. I'm not sure why they keep showing the purple drum unless they're trying to stir **** up or they're going to include both.

And I agree about NB's black chest. It doesn't go with the rest. And the alt mode woulda looked better with it green, too. Hope a 3rd party or TFC themselves put out a replacement.

Oh good lord, Sodan-1 was right. Just block out all input regarding that stupid drum until it's released. It'll be one of them.

[Doctor McGrath]

Really looking forward to these final two. I'm ready for some devastation!(regardless of the drum color)
