Hey guys I've been out of the loop when it comes to third party Predaking...

But all the pics are poisoning me sad.gif

So just want to ask your opinion - what's a better package, TFC Ares or MMC Feral Rex?

TFC is like RM500 cheaper, right? Is MMC's worth the extra $$$?

Just got my MP-13 Soundwave + MP-15 Rumble & Ravage + MP-16 Frenzy & Buzzsaw & the IF EX-01 upgrade kit for my FOC Grimlock from 1Toy Amcorp Mall smile.gif nice pricing as well.

Great service from their shop. Definitely gonna be my favorite shop after this for future purchase.

Budget for toys this and next month has been used up, hahaha... Can't believe Rm1.5k spent for 3 separate purchase  sweat.gif

Thanks to cycheah too for the smooth transaction for the RID Soundwave  thumbup.gif

If budget is a concern, you may want to stick to a single line... like MP or equivalent size or quality only.. its not just saves you some dough for future purchase.. but also save you some space...

Myself idlike my toys/figures to have display value.. so getting bigger, detailed & articulated is priority.. so i have to for go the small ones as i know they would most probably end up in group photo display, assembly display or.. worst come to the worst.. end up in storage.

It seems like only yesterday around December last year, I saw Bovis in a toy store.. picked it up.. then looked around for somewhere where they still took preorder for the rest of the line. Thanks X2O! (sincere thanks).

MMC might make you wait long and pay a bit more, but the quality and feel of the plastic justifies it for me. The G1-ish look also really does it for me. THis is what I thought predaking woud look like when I was playing with the G1 versions as a kid.,. (still remember getting it from Parkson when there was a discount.. rm 30 each.. went. from Atria Parkson to Subang Parade Parkson to get them all biggrin.gif)

I'm allocating like Rm500 - Rm700 per month for toys. My current concern would be the space to display them later, some might go to storage too sweat.gif

If I am buying a combiner, i'll pick MMC. MMC products has better quality in general and the combined sword looked a lot better than TFC.

Really depends on which style you like more lor. If you prefer to be closer to G1, pick MMC. If you prefer neo-updated design, then pick TFC. Personally I picked MMC because they look better in scale as individual bots; TFC has a giant lion and baby bull/rhino/cat/tweetybird laugh.gif

It really depends on who you ask. Different groups of people have different opinion. On TransMy forums for example, a good deal of people favor TFC. Here, I find the majority leaning towardss MMC (myself included). It's best that if you can see them upclose and touch-touch-feel to see how they are.

Honestly,MMC's Bovis is what brought me into the 3rd party world as well as back to collecting transformers. I was so surprised the first time I laid my eyes on it. The packaging was nice, the plastic feels good, nice weight, transformation and details etc. So i got on board and preordered the set.

Now I am a predaking fan, so when I saw TFC's nemean I bought it (partly, Leo Dux was still a way off and I couldn't resist getting a Razorclaw) so I got pulled in to another set. When I first played with Nemean, one thing right off the bat was the feel of the plastic. It was certainly different from Nemean's, I would not say it is better or worse, but it certainly made me feel that I like MMC's plastic more. Look wise, it was ok to me, as many said an updated look to the Predacons. Color wise I did not like the red tips on the shoulder cannons, you might have a different opinion on them though.

So far, with 3 figs in for tfc, I've got to say I like the alt modes of TFC however, I much prefer the bot modes of MMC. I've also combined my TFC ones with other TFC figures such as limbs from proemtheus and Uranos(Don't get this.. much regret to be had) , and I find that the connector on my Nemean feels loose. The ratchet on the limbs are tough.. but the connector'srotation itself, not so much. It could be mine only though, so I'm not sure.


I'll put it this way, and people will disagree with me.. MMC when I got it, it wowed me that 3rd party can be of this level of quality and packaging. TFC is just about right given the price etc.


p/s : TFC fans, this is just my opinion, not a MMC fanboy, I am also collecting Rex, Prometheus and already have Uranos, so this is just purely my opinion biggrin.gif. Don't want to get bashed for my opinion like in some other forum lol.

Thank you for the awesome feedback on Predaking guys.

Based on what I've seen, I prefer MMC to TFC too.

Still not sure if it's worth the extra RM500 though. That's a lot of money!

Yeah in a way, despite the fact that the wait was lonnnnnnng for each component to come, I'm glad it did. It seems less painful to get it over a year.
