Those TFC Terrorcons look fantastic. As does the Cang Toys Predacons we've seen so far. I currently have five different 3P combiner sets awaiting completion and I don't know if I should jump into two more.

S.W.O.R.D. Agent posted:I'm also probably going to wind up ordering the IF Heat Death and Honekumoki just because they look cool (were these actual transformers or just something IF made up?) They are, they're just filtered through IF's "house style". Heat Death is Beast Wars Transmetal II Megatron, Honekumoki is Bludgeon but with a big oni face on his chest cause he's a samurai.

Edit^^^ Gotcha, thanks for the info. Can't see myself not getting the heat death. I watched a couple of reviews on the TFC Aquacons and thought they looked really fun. I knew no matter what I was going to get that rippersnapper so I figured why not.

Yeah, Heat Death looks amazing, and I don’t even care about BW.

Does this seller look as good as it gets for an HK ebay seller? https://www.ebay.com/usr/freemantoys?ul_noapp=true

Does Pulse have an in stock alert? A couple have gone back into stock 3 or 4 times over the last week or so. Or what about the Tomy Mall box set? I don't think that's gone up for preorder yet.

I’ve heard Newage Megatron is really tops. Also I picked up that Apollo guy; him and Sheridan should be here some time next week and then you know I’ll actually touch the package a week after that.

I'm not looking for the full set of Seacons, but I adore the colors on Snaptrap. Is he a decent standalone figure?

He's an extensive retool of Hun-grr (who's base engineering is derived from Silverbolt). He's a pretty good figure but I'm pretty sure when the rest of the team arrives I'll never uncombine them.

Thanks for this post. I also put in for them. Just short Tentakil now. Was originally going to stay away as I'd much prefer a box set but these look pretty great now that folks have had some in hand.

I ended up deciding to splurge and now have ordered 4 of the seacons on Pulse. I guess now to wait and see if Tentakil and Overbite comeback in stock

If there is no box set, I’ll be free.

Seacons are great, the turtle was one of my favorite bots as a kid, but I’m trying not to get spend happy until after I get back to work. It’s up to the rest of you to post pictures, so I can once again live vicariously through you.

I almost grabbed Ironhide and Cosmos, but decided I'd rather not miss out on Megatron if I was only grabbing a few to start with. If I like these as much as I think I will I'll definitely be ordering Starscream and Ironhide at some point (would love to have them all, ha).
