An ebay auction gives us Kit Images of the FansProjects Transformers Superion Appendage Images.
The Appendage add-ons are for RotF Superion (the version released in North America, an exclusive to Target in the United States, Zellers in Canada, and major retailers in Europe) and for Universe Superion (Asia). The original mold comes from Energon Superion Maximus, which can be seen here on the galleries of Seibertron.com. This product is made by FansProject, and is not retailed, or endorsed by Hasbro or TakaraTomy. For more images of the appendage, they can be found here in another story, all the way back from May.
Stay tuned to your Ultimate Transformers Database for your latest Revenge of the Fallen news!

Hopefully BBTS will have it in stock soon. Glad I preordered it-it looks better than I was expecting. Fansproject has another winner.

Hmmmm, this is looking better and better all the time. I keep seeing the Superion set @ Target and have resisted up to this point. Once some galleries and reviews on this get posted, I'm sure I'll cave.
Once again, looks like a win for FP.

we'll see how the plastic colors work on the different versions of Superion in regards to matching and color schemes.
While the parts look good, the base transformer ended up being too poor IMO to warrant purchasing it just to add on to. Hopefully the new parts allow some better poseability in the legs, even if it does mean he has to take a super wide stance.

My thoughts exactly. I had no idea it came with so many parts.

The kit continues to look awesome, but the packaging... is English not these guys' first language? My grammar's not perfect, but the back of that thing is embarrassing. Really degrades the otherwise amazingly professional work they've done.

Sweet. Didn't realize there were so many parts, so I feel better about the price point. ie: paying nearly double the price of the figure just to have forearms, hands and boots.

Other than it being somewhat overerly dramatic it's worded well... Just seems like a bit of overkil for a toy IMO.. Hey I'm happy that the kit actually comes with a good amount of parts.. It's slowly justfying the price point which is kind of steep

I don't have a problem with the drama at all, just the actual construction of the sentences. The worst by far is "Avoiding to trip over" but the rest of it is clumsily worded, as if it was revised over and over without anyone stepping back and reading the whole thing to see if it still sounded good. I don't really want to make an issue out of it, but it's definitely not worded well. That's a shame, because it's a very cool product from some talented designers.

Looking great, but it's still a pass for me since I don't want it bad enough to justify the price. That may change when we see the boatloads of hi-res pics that are sure to be popping up when people start receiving these.

The only concern I have is that, after I get this (I already have it ordered), they'll recolor it white & red (the colors I WANTED to see it in), and re-release it... grrr...

most people want this set more then the G3 judging by all the hype on the boards at various TF sites..
good thing I ordered mine the other day..
I can't wait to see this on my ROTF superion set! he'll be an awesome addition to the Henkei/classics stuff I'm trying to get together..

Just want to add that the seller of this is highly reliable and his after purchase offers are second to none. I would rate Toyspark to be far superior to BBTS and regularly buy TFs from him.
