>>5772806Personally I'm satisfied with Shapeshift Inc. Starscream since the WFC/FOC design is what they used in a lot of the IDW comics anyway so he fits in better with Iron Factory, but idk I guess if the DX9 mold is good maybe I'll buy the inevitable Skywarp or something.
Predaking I'm definitely interested in, though. I really like Hulkie. Would have maybe made a little more sense for the sake of shelf balance to do an autobot combiner first? But idk I'm not really complaining.
>>5773060They're pretty good. I really like the feel of the plastic they use. The designs aren't as good as Iron Factory but really all my complaints about them would just be like that--unfavorable comparisons to Iron Factory. In their own right, they're still good, they just come across as unimpressive when IF is there to compare to.
I wouldn't call their Megatron bad but I also wouldn't recommend it. It has a really impressive gun mode and transformation, but the result is a robot mode that has some issues, including everything that
>>5773071said, and also the fact that the shoulder articulation is complete crap and he can barely lift his arms out to the side at all cause they hit on the torso.
And again, the reason that I don't recommend it is just cause of Iron Factory haha. IF's designer is making a Megatron for Generation Toy which seems way better for my taste. I like the look of the robot mode sculpt and proportions way more, it solves the shoulder articulation issue, it has a bigger, better looking cannon, etc. The tradeoffs are that the gun mode is worse (but still decent) and the barrel extension appears to be permanently attached (at least we've yet to see it without it) so that's always there as kibble on his back.
