Huge improvement for sure. I still prefer my FP Menasor though.

Same. But the alt modes alone make these guys worth picking up.

[loophole]

Never liked FP Menasor so I'll be getting this upgrade kit for sure!!

[Ode to a Grasshopper]

Nice idea and it vastly improves the combined mode, but I still like the look of Bold Forms Lone Wolf (http://www.otca.com.au/boards/showthread.php?t=20354) better myself.
The Truck-of-Doom look is kind of fun though.

[Hursticon]

This is where 3rd Parties are at their best, I think, as trying to engineer a product that works cohesively with someone else's engineering that was never meant to have something piggy-back onto it, to achieve a better end result is a level of puzzle-solving that few would tackle and fewer succeed at. ;):)

As such, as someone who utterly adores their FP Intimidator, I'm still getting the (TakTom) Official set of Stunticons just based on their individual molds alone but what Perfect-Effect has achieved here, and with Superion, with just the Feet & Fists has me interested - The chest and head is mere icing! :eek:

I'll be up for these 2 sets for sure! :D

[Lord_Zed]

This set does make him look a lot better, If it works with the Japanese version then I may be tempted.

I can't see him out shinning Intimidator but there's no reason I can't have both.

[CBratron]

Definitely an improvement. I never much liked the tiny feet and knuckle-guns of the original mold. I suspect this will be quite expensive (I know that's weird for someone who is perfectly okay with paying for third party).

[loophole]

Have they changed the Menasor head? The one in the render looks different to the original pics?

Yeah. I prefer the Prowl version :(

[CBratron]

I think they'll keep the Prowl crest. They've been prototyped. The other ones only have a CG render.
And besides, those pointy needle horns are just begging for injury.

[philby]

regardless of the kit, i think just seeing him posed like that compared to the stock official hasbro photos has pretty much sold me on him!

Don't think the Hasbro version can do that pose without the kit, no ankle joints.

[canofwhoopass_87]

Looks pretty good - nice upgrade that really improves the original. Just don't like the new head :(

Look forward to a Superion set though!

[philby]

ah ok whoops didnt notice that

USD $32.99 for this kit and another $32.99 for the upgrade feet and hands, I'll skip the hands/feet set... bit too pricey

If this is really cheap, I'll get it. So no.
