Holy crap that looks phenomenal!
Wish you did a before and after shot but that is making me want him more and more.
Thanks a lot! :p
Great job as always.
Be careful dude, you mind end up with mine to do as well :cool:

man... I'm really considering getting feral rex. Not sure I can justify the price in total though!
Will be tough to justify without the $15-20 pre-order early bird discounts per figure. Their quality is top-notch: on the weekend I was bruising my fingers trying to pull apart Leo Dux's swords after clipping them together.Quote:

Loving the red accents mate. Well done!
Yeah, it temds to be the enamel paint that separates the Masterpieces from the Classics.
Very nice Lancelot.
Now do the dry-brushing. ;)
what does this mean "the metallic candy look dull in doors"??
Looks awesome btw.
lol i was referring to the lion head in the middle chest .... it doesn't turn out good in photos ....it looks dull but it a candy colour with a metallic silver under base so it really shinny in sunlight .... was trying a different combination of silver and chrome for the under coat with lacquer or acrylic transparent and candy colour .Quote:

OHH indoors not "in doors" ... After reading what you said like 5 times I finally understood what you meant.Quote:

I get you now.
Could someone explain r07? Is he an extra bot like a replacement for the left arm?
or is just part of the main team?
He's an optional replacement for Talon if you want a more symmetrical looking Rex.Quote:

I'm not sure who Beast Catilla is I will have to look it up.
Are any of you going to get R07?
If you want Rex's wings you will need Talon. I gather that he will sit on Feral Rex's back if you use R-07 Felisaber as a limb. Divebomb/Talon was one of the original Predacons, so I see him as more important.
I have pre-ordered R-07 Felisaber as well tho.
Nope, I didn't bother with R-07...
I didn't bother with R07, much prefer to keep it similar to the original G1 predaking .. just waiting on repro labels atm :)
I'm getting him as he got a few more accessories that included with him . Plus he got the first issue of the comic , smart move of them to release him last .
Here a video clip of feral rex in ultimate mode Talon become the whole back pack .... i was wondering why he had a pug in his chest when i first got him .
I'm with you. I'm going to try and find the original bots. Plus r07 is an autobot. He has no place on preda...err feral rex.Quote:

I'm in for Catilla, although I doubt I'll ever use him in combined mode, just add him to my Autobot line up :)
Also I like the meta-idea that his function is 'Mercenary', like - you can buy him to bolster the team, but the team is still 'complete' without him.Quote:

Peaugh has a video review up for him now if anyones interested
I dunno if it's just mine - but I have a hard time posing feral Rex.Quote:

You mean his feet slide? Ball joint loose? What exactly?
Also found this site. Has some mods and fixes.

Great paints there Lancalot!
Shame about the stability issues. Thought it was a winner based on the 4 figures I have so far. Guess that means MT's Computron is still king for me.
My Leo Dux's legs are quite strong. No issues at all. Talon and Tigris were perfect. I think my only gripes would be my Feral Rex's combined mode head's antennae seem to curve very slightly inwards; and trying to peg Fortis' animal back legs for combined mode is a major pain in the arse.Quote:

An interesting read from one of the designer of feral rex
