But all the pics are poisoning me
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 $$$?

QUOTE(fox_shinoda @ Oct 19 2014, 03:17 PM) 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 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...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 Thanks to cycheah too for the smooth transaction for the RID Soundwave 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. |

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 But all the pics are poisoning me So just want to ask your opinion - what's a better package, TFC Ares or MMC Feral Rex?

QUOTE(omichael @ Oct 20 2014, 11:42 AM) Hey guys I've been out of the loop when it comes to third party Predaking... 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. But all the pics are poisoning me 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 $$$? 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 |

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! |
