I dont mind VS size to DS. Its just that blade. I remember seeing the DNA Design one, just never went for it. Now I might. Same for that Fans Hobby Armada Star Saber, proto pics look fantastic. Hasbro just cant get toy sword sizes right.

Yeah, they never seem to get sword blades or guns quite the right size for the figures, example, Kingdom Rodimus, for the price paid, his gun is just rather lame in terms of size, same goes for that sword he came with! With my Victory Saber, I have upgrade his sword blade and the Victory Leo cannons, with the cannons, I just didn't like starring at the holes filling the bottom and I found myself asking "Why?" Why did they make such a dumb choice on a expensive product that is funded outside of the normal means, but I never added DNA's wing upgrade for Victory Leo as I saw nothing wrong with the current wings!

That’s how I feel about the wings as well. They are fine with the size they are if my only other option is the DNA. Somewhere in the middle would have been better IMO.

I also don’t feel a need to upgrade the shoulder cannons. I think they look fine. My biggest complaint is just the sword. I wasn’t sure if the money for the sword was worth it. Now that he’s next to DS on the shelf I’m starting to rethink. But this close to Christmas it’s gonna have to wait.

The sword's length was what it is so that it could be stored away inside its compartment while in vehicle mode.

 

[Darth_Prime]

I get that. I’d rather them have sacrifices that or found a better way to do it to so we could get a bigger sword. But, it is what it is.

They probably also picked a length that they felt would work for both Saber and Star Saber.

Well, mine didn't arrive today, and FedEx has updated from saying "Tuesday" to 'Pending". I guess that's more realistic, since it's still in transit from CA, but meh.

 

[CrockAlley]

The wiki says his wingtips can detach, but this isn’t documented in the instructions. I see the red and black wedge is separately molded, but I don’t want to try to pry it off. Anyone have any info about this?

My order has finally updated from saying "Pending" (after it previously said "Tuesday") to now saying "Thursday". We'll see about that.

 

[Rhinox]

Mine is at my parents. Can't wait.
Got a call from my fedex driver asking if I was home as a signature was required. He accepted my permission over the phone to have him sign on my behalf and drop it off as I was in KC all week for work.

 

[Sciflyer]

Mine didn't require a signature but funnily enough, the HISS Tank that was just delivered yesterday did.

 

[Sabrblade]

Mine finally arrived (signature required), but today's a busy day for me so I may not get to open it for some time.

 

[Darth_Prime]

I’ve gotten mine open and put on the shelf. Maybe this weekend I will get some time to tinker with him.

 

[The Phazer]

I remain a bit grumpy about Hasbro UK once again completely cocking up delivery logistics.

You have my sympathies.

[Sabrblade]

You are seriously making me lament missing out on that set even more than I already do.

 

[Darth_Prime]

I’ve thought so many times about trying to get a 3P version but I keep holding out for a proper Hasbro / Takara version.

 

[Sabrblade]

I'm a sucker for CW-styled Combiners anyway, so I'd still want it even if a better one was made later.

 

[Superomegaprime]

I hope in the near future we get LioKaiser done as he should be, six bots, I passed on that set made from the Combiner Wars/Power of the Primes molds, because it didn't seem quite right to me!

 

[CrockAlley]

I just love how goofy it is. “Dezarus” being an amalgam of three characters is wild and I love it. It’s like a built-in story. How did he get that way?

But I do miss Leozack and Jellguar. I’d love to see them in the Combiner Wars style.
