Not sure if Hasbro is selling in sets, but it seems quite clear that yes all the limbs will be transformable.

As for ugly or not, umm yeah it's subjective, but personally I'd rather pay 5x more for Fansproject Intimidator compared to having this anywhere on my shelf...

The fact is though, there are some things that Hasbro can never do to make their stuff look as good as 3rd party.

Sharper details, better engineering for transformations, I mean hell, they can't even give Optimus Prime smokestacks anymore because apparently kids these days need 24 hrs supervision to make sure they don't stab their own eye out with OP smokestacks..

Costs, toy safety laws etc are things that limit what Hasbro can do imho.

Yeah definitely.

Although, when the official guys do get it right, they get it SO right. Most of the time that's with MP figures.

MP10 to me is probably the holy grail of Transformers engineering and accuracy.

Can't think of a 3rd party figure that nails it on that level. Quake Wave maybe? Hmm still not quite there...

Oh, that's a new one for me.

There are also rumors that some third party companies are secretly run by disgruntled Hasbro/TakTom designers who got sick of not being allowed to make the designs they wanted due to cost/safety issues.

So I guess you can say they... Decepti-conned their own company biggrin.gif

(Sorry couldn't resist...)

I wan to ask bout MMC Mastermind Ferel Rex. Do we really need total of 6 set onli can transform to the king? I heard ppl saying tat the last one Felisaber is the extra for the set to combine. So meaning i can transform the Predaking without Felisaber rite?

Hard to find unfortunately, unless you're really lucky. My personal opinion though, this set is probably not worth your money. Kinda loose joints, and the transformation is rather simplistic.
