Talk:Predaking (Prime)
From MediaWiki
So, hey, is Beast Hunters a new franchise? Do we need to move Predaking's page to a new disambig? --ItsWalky 16:43, 11 October 2012 (EDT)
- Well, the branding seems to be Transformers Prime: Beast Hunters, so I suppose it's more of a subline-imprint than a whole new franchise... Jalaguy 17:17, 11 October 2012 (EDT)
Voyager toy observances.
So, being polite (I didn't want to directly edit the page and add stuff without, you know, putting it here first) and having the toy in hand...
- He has a LOT of rubbery plastic that likes to deform (Some in the box, the beastmode head on mine is warped and I have no idea how it's supposed to look 'normally'). Presumably the Takara release will have hard plastic?
- His rocket launchers have a gear-mesh system that allows you to plug them together and fire them at the same time... But this function doesn't work in beastmode, the plugs on his shoulders are too wide to allow the gears to mesh. Which is somewhat perplexing as this presumably would be the entire point of the gear-mesh system?
- Finally, his tail-sword is a neat idea, but doesn't really work, his hands (Being rubbery plastic) don't have enough friction or room for the tabs to hold the sword functionally like in the promo pictures. It tends to just flop out of his hand if you place it there.
On that note, the Promo-picture is miss transformed in robot mode, he should have a black spike erected on either shoulder.
On a more childish/awesome note, with his rocket launchers on his arms, he looks like he has dragon-headed fists, complete with fireball punches.
