HELP ME FINISH MY G1 PIRANACON

[higsy19]

Hi all,

I am currently looking at completing my piranacon for display.

Due to the overwhelming success of my first Predaking project.

I am looking at getting my hands on

SEAWING

NAUTILATOR

OVERBITE

I currently have skalor and tentakil with a few accessories and a complete snaptrap is on its way so pretty convenient not having to chase the combiner accessories.

Pic is attached of the combiner so far

I have

:confused:HMMMMMM:confused: I'll have look, I may or may not have a spare Seawing. I could be wrong:o While I remember, The foot and sword started their trip on Tuesday so you may see them on Monday;):)

You should really go for gold and aim to complete your combiner teams. You may be content with Predaking for now, but eventually you'll develop an itch that can only be scratched by getting all the accessories!

Plus, the individual bots aren't quite the same without all their gear.

This store has a number of parts you may need. He's a top guy and very easy going when it comes to negotiating price (provided you buy multiple items). Shipping is cheap and with the AUD powering over the USD at the moment, you can't go wrong

Hope that helps! Piranacon is one badass of a G1

Cheers for the heads up , how does it differ from the original g1 combiner

There's are some differences colour-wise in a few places, but overall it's pretty good, at least in my opinion.

I'm very happy with mine, especially at that price.

YMMV, of course.

EDIT: A ton of pics here, if you want to compare the originals to the BBTS versions.

Overbite suffers the worse. His body is that Seacon-pink colour not purple and doesn't look right for the "G1 feel" despite being more inline with the team colours now. Everything else looks fine in the box (mine's still misb).

The plastic feels kinda cheaper (and feels less sturdy IMO) in the newer version, but the chrome on the weapons are fantastic:) as I bought mine as well in BBTS coz the price was too good to pass.

Also what Paulbot said.

Piranahcon has tons of accessories actually, coz each limb has that Targetmaster altmode so if your still set on getting original pieces to complete it fully then it'll take a while and more moolah, hopefully you do find sellers (like whoopy recommends) that sell the parts cheap. Otherwise there's the reissue. :)
