Transformers Selects Series King Poseidon Combiner and Individuals Full Reveal

Posted by D-Maximal_Primal Jul 27, 2019 at 8:30pm CDT 23,875 views
Thanks to a heads up from Seibertronian Nemesis Primal, we have word that the Transformers Selects Series King Poseidon has been fully revealed!

King Poseidon, which is standing in all his glory at the ACGHK event in Hong Kong, is finally revealed in full, along with all of his individual members. The full combined mode confirms for us that at least Overbite will have a gun and limb mode, and while we cannot confirm that the other limb bots will have weapon modes at this time, we can speculate that all 5 limbs will have gun modes.

We also get a good look at the individuals in robot and beast mode, with Turtler from Hun Gurr, Overbite appearing to be a Rippersnapper retool, Kraken a Cutthroat, Lobclaw and Gulf both retooled from Blot, and Tentakill... well, we're not sure, but it is possible Tentakill is a new mold.

Check out the Seacons below, and let us know what you think of them in the comments section below!

Uh, not seeing any robot mode pics there (not that's surprising, considering *looks at Masterforce pointedly*).

Damn but they look awesome. It just figures that of all the G1 combiner teams, the Seacons would end up as exclusives, though, doesn't it? Somebody should photograph them with Noisemaze Mass Production Ver. and the BotCon Sweeps.

I've had more issues with the smaller Terrorcons' hip joints than with Hun-Gurrr himmself, at least so far

I'm definitely in. I hope we get a release date soon, as well as how much Hasbro will be charging for them so I know how much I'll need to save. I hope this is a decent way out from now, for the sake of everyone who wants Unicron.

Forget the torso joints, there is no way his arm is holding up the gun. It's a good thing I like Overbite, because it seems like he'll be an individual in order to not destroy one of his team mates joints.

Honestly, they all seem sick enough to have one be on their own, I'm concerned about has/tak charging for all the new hands and feet, and then the combined mode won't even be able to hold up this leg - like abominus >:oP

It's possible the sword parts can also configure as a gun stand.

Looking at it more I'm not super happy with the sword. It looks like he's holding a sword blade by the tang, rather than by a grip. Actually, now that I've gotten more into customizing I probably could make one, but depending on how much this is supposed to cost I probably shouldn't have to.

If push comes to shove and he cannot hold his 5th limb up as a gun, I will take Tentakill and gladly display him as an individual. He is my Seacon

He's holding it by the grip, look at pics 5 and 6

I mean, that's nothing a tiny bit of paper towel can't fix, but hungurr's crappy shoulder ratchets? No way, bum shoulders are permanent cuz hasbro pinned his entire body together, so you can't mod or fix it, which means, he can barely stand on his own, let alone strike a pose :roll:

They're going to have robot modes for the limbs, r-right...?

Gulf, specifically.

Ok good, I was afraid they'd be so accurate to Masterforce they would remove the robot mode.

Plus, they're all retools of pre-existing PotP molds, so the robot modes have to be retained:

Turtler/Snaptrap: Terrorcon Hun-Gurrr
Gulf/Skalor: Terrorcon Blot
Kraken/Seawing: Terrorcon Cutthroat
Overbite: Terrorcon Rippersnapper
Lobclaw/Nautilator: Terrorcon Blot(?!)
Tentakil: hard to make out, gimme a moment on that (or get me a shot from the back)

So far, Tentakil appears to be a unique, all new mold.

This close up of his hidden robot mode chest resembles no existing CW/Potpie Deluxe mold's robot chest.

Which is pretty odd, but I'd still like to see the reverse, or where the Combiner peg swings out from.

It also looks like the Combiner hands are either new or retooled PotPie hands. No double thumbs, and new fingers with what looks like an individually articulated index finger.

Can't wait to see more.
He/they look AMAZING!! :KREMZEEK:
