[quote="That Bot"][quote="Arctorro"][quote="That Bot"]Okay I'll admit. That is a sexy Headstrong. If their Divebomb wasn't a letdown, I'd seriously consider that. But I need to see MMC's offering.

Not very interested in these guys anymore. MMC please

I don't hate these as far as their individual bot modes go.

I kind of like the blocky look to 'em.

Its the combined mode that really misses the mark.

I still prefer what we've seen from MMC overall, sorry guys.

I don't think we are even close to having a Hercules-Giant near tie competition here. MMC just body slammed Unique Toys into next year.

We have an interesting turn of events. Unique Toy's War Hawk is $60 at Chimungmung! I don't know if it was always $60 or if that's a mistake (or if BBTS' is a mistake), but if this is a permenant price drop it's definately a game changer.

It also ships out Feb 1st, apparently.

Edit:
I'm still with MMC, though. I think I can afford to shell out for what I feel is the better combiner. Gotta say, though ... the price here makes this very tempting.

That's a pretty cool box. It looks like, once you have all of them, you can display them side by side to make a full picture of Predaking.

But I'm still going with MMC.

I like the bot modes these guys are making, they are pleasantly geewunny.
But the combined mode just keeps me away.

[quote]URGENT: Unique Toys just informed us that they will lower the cost! Therefore Robotkingdom will reduce the price of UT-W01 to $59.9

Please allow us a later time to refund the difference of previous pre-order, should able to refund all preorders during this week.

BBTS still has it at full price, but I would expect a change this week. I wish that $60 was enough to get me to switch, but MMC's is just too beautiful at this time.

It's a shame that this is competing with MMC. Hopefully, we will have a good scenario where there is a split between people buying this and MMC, as was the case with Hercules and Giant. These guys definately deserve success of the back of this work, but unfortunately they have lost me to MMC.

that looks pretty nice. very gewunny and a good fit next to Hot Rod there. Won't be getting it, but like Banjo, I'd like to see these guys continue, as this project suggests potential for this company.

Wow that looks very basic and dinky (small) couldn't be having that my self

These guys just chose the wrong combiner. I think they could make a decent Defensor. Or even Trailbreaker or Hoist. All of tghose guys are on my list and I think reletively simple designs would be a strength for these guys.

Theyre not bad, it's just MMC is better. They might sell better later on if they repaint them in a G2 or SG theme. A blue, purple and white repaint would make me consider owning 2 Predakings. I would put it on my G2 shelf but Im sure the SG fans would go crazy...
