Wondering why some TFW members are saying these X2T toys can combine. Do they form a combiner in either or both modes?

Definitely curious to get my questions answered in a video toy review or by some here.

Video review is up on YouTube by Peaugh, perhaps he can sway you!

Chimungmung.com has this toy as listing in stock and ready to ship on their site. http://chimungmung.com/product_info.php ... adajrc77d0

Cmon BBTS....sway me to hit ship again !

I hope these arrive soon. I also hope they do the Decepticon clones too!

I'm still on the fence with these guys.

If they do the Decepticon clones, that would probably put me overt the edge, assuming they were decent.

As of now, I'm skipping these as I have no real attachment to the Autobot clones.

Yeah, that makes sense. I own the G1 clones, so there's that old attachment.

If it is any consolation, Before N After has shown prototypes of the D-clones. Courtesy of KumaStyle:

That definitely works, too. Thanks!

XT005 - Gemini Set of Furrow & Rotor is processing @ BBTS.

Yay! They're now in my POL. And all of my POL is third-party stuff. :p

I am unreasonably excited about these.

As am I, despite that I strongly dislike their altmodes.

Im debating if I should ship my POL now that these guys are in.

Interested in seeing video reviews of these toys. Just wondering if the Two robots combine to form a combiner in vehicle or bot mode.

Did you watch Peaugh's review? I believe robotmel pointed it out to you. Peaugh does show a "combined mode."

Anybody got these in hand yet ? I havent shipped my POL yet. I would like to see some comparison pics next to a few basic deluxe figures. The reviewers choices for comparison shots sucked. I would like to know if these are the height of a newer shorter deluxe figure or an older taller deluxe figure. Any pics would be greatly appreciated.

I'm waiting on FP's Quickswitch figure. Once that gets in, it should be a day or two and I'll have my POL. I'm hoping by the end of the week, but probably next week...

My shipment with them was supposed to arrive tomorrow, but with the big blizzard coming I doubt it'll arrive. So hopefully Wednesday.

Hope you get it soon and please do post some pics. Im not shipping until felisaber, quickswitch, and the takara fembots drop. I might even hold out for the MMC fembots but with no new news that might be overkill on my part.

Yeah... thanks for the concern over the blizzard I mentioned. :p Juno was fun, then the one yesterday...

Anyway.



I have no idea if I'll even transform them because the instructions are so confusing! But in robot mode, thyey're good. Nice articulation, nice construction too. The little lion dude is an odd, but nice, bonus.

I love the scale here. I was scared they might be as tall as classics Prime. Seeing that they are deluxe scale make me super happy I bought them.

Not shipping my loot without Felisaber, Quickswitch, and the Takara fembots though.

Got mine.

Some rambling thoughts:

So...they essentially are Defender, down to the initially infuriating transformation.

They look amazing in robot mode in decent in alt mode. I think they are fragile. There are many small joints that if the figure fell from four feet, it would shatter.

I can't recommend them because I think it is entirely possible to hate them. However, as an adult collector and knowing that we will likely never get any better for these characters, you might just enjoy them.

First time I transformed Cloudraker, it was awful. Second time, it made SO much more sense. The various rotations you have to do are nerve wracking because you turn things that seem like they shouldn't turn.

Let me put it like this, I won't say you have to buy them, but I will say that maybe you shouldn't pass on them.

Ughhh....one of those fiddly FP/MT type of designs that you transform once and never again. Are they worse than FP Deisel ?

I wouldn't say worse...about the same I suppose.

Somebody needs to do a youtube video of how to get Deisel back into truck mode or I swear I will never disassemble Menasor. Especially that sword/feet/hands/gun/trailer thing.
