    Default TW-T03: 3rd Party G1 Throttlebot - Chase

    Toy World TW-T03 Trace up for grabs via Robotkingdom ($56) and Chimungmung ($55).

    Not much news from in a while, but it looks like the third member of the not-Throttlebots is finally available for shipping (quite an impressive improvement from when Aurora's release date was pushed back due to the Chinese Golden Week). This availability seems isolated to the HK-based websites as BBTS and TFSource has yet to make the same update (as of this post).

    Both websites have also added the below interesting images. Don't get too excited just yet, the tiny disclaimer on RK's image states that the fist comes from MMC (Feral Rex's gestalt fist).

    Via Chimungmung:


    Via RK:


    I'll be happy enough for all six of these guys to be released, let alone combine!

    Still not convinced they are a combiner despite popular perception.

    Despite the fact that those arm mode photos come directly from Toyworld's own website??

    If you're right, then that would make them the biggest bunch of #%$^holes the planets has ever seen

    Are they or is it just the retailers doing it? Why would they need a Feral Rex fist and why don't any of the previous toy show any engineering that would be for combination?

    As per my link, those photos are on Toyworld's website. And if they weren't doing a combiner, why would they perpetuate the myth by posting those pics? That doesn't make any sense.

    Unless they're a bunch of tools of course.

    But I have no idea why they aren't using their own fists, unless they only wan tot show finished products, which they aren't yet

    I know I've seen leg and now arm pics, the only thing missing is the core body.

    I think the reason why they're using FeralRex's fist is because they haven't designed one of their own. Since the the throttlebots don't originally have a gestalt form and its just Toyworld making it a gimmick so you'll buy them all.

    I'm assuming Wide Load will act as the Long Haul and Goldbug will be the upper chest.

    At the same time in their Facebook page, they have the pics with a "lol" as in implying something:

    I am still not 100% that those are actually their pics and that they just saw them and put them up.
