While I love Twinstrike, and no doubt will love the others when I get them, Hasbro, you want a combiner? The torso needs to be the next class size up.

Honestly, I feel that Hun-Gurrr is a big enough legion that he makes it work. He's supposed to be a monstrous combiner, not human-proportioned, so it's okay for him to have huge arms and legs. If Hun-Gurrr was a stick like some other legions, there'd be a problem, but he's probably twice the mass of some I've seen, and still only $6.

I can't wait to get the other three Terrorpreds and make my own Abominus!

And I just noticed that the photographer forgot to flip Hun-Gurrr's claws up over his hands.

I do love how he has giant claws instead of hands, It just makes him that much more primal.

Nah. I still like them for the individual figures, but combined mode is trash. Maybe try a quadruped stance.

Kinda like the combined mode. Granted, it's not perfect, but what combiner is?

Didn't know the weapons combined.

So is Hun-Gurr and [Sinner]Twinstrike the only ones released, or is the whole shebang here?

I have to agree with Burn, Hun Gurr should have been Legion commander sized.. Look at the original Abominus, Hun Gurr was so much larger than the others.

Look at WFC Bruticus. Onslaught should have been bigger.

Why Hasbro are going in this direction is beyond me. Torso bigger, limbs smaller, just because PCC sucked doesn't mean they have to change the whole combiner dynamic.

Don't think the weapon combination is official, but it looks nice.

Twinstrike and Hun-Gurr are the only ones to have been released so far, but hopefully this means the other three are drawing near.

Liking this. Looking forward to it being mine.

Looks kinda like an oversized battleaxe, the more I look at it.

I figured as much. I've seen Hun-Gurr and Twinsrike at retail, but yet to see the rest of the Terrorcons.

Rumor has it these toys have Scramble Power, meaning the limbs are interchangeable with each other.

Given the way Blight and Rippersnapper seem to be attached to the 3mm bars on Hun-Gurr's legs, and the lack of a C-clip anywhere that would make Twinstrike useful as a leg, I wouldn't be surprised if this rumor was false. Not that I mind... The fact that these things combine at all is really pretty cool, given the amount of engineering they have to pack into such tiny figures to make it work. And it doesn't seem to take away from any of them as individual figures... They all look really nice, something I can't say about the last combiner they made at this scale (Legends RoTF Devastator).

I must say it does look good for what it tries to do, given the limits of Legends/Legion scale. Of course you can't expect proper hands and feet hidden inside the bodies, it's either that or clip-ons that have nowhere else to go. >:oP

I really like the idea of NOT having normal hands, I think it works spectacularly.

Count me in on that action.

I just got Hun-Grrr, and REALLY wish he had been in the commander class size range.

I planned to have this guy stand with my PCC stuff, but as is, he'll be pretty small in comparison. Maybe he'll fit better with my G1 Legends class display.

Honestly though, there is not much different size wise compared to there G1 counterpart with the exception of Hun-gurr.

I've been waiting for more Legends Combiners ever since RotF Devastator. Hopefully I can actually find all the Terrorcons...

I do wish Hun-Grr was larger (or the torso was made up of multiple bots, like in Devy). Monstrous, inhuman proportions are great, but this looks functionally wrong, like he won't be able to support any poses besides "stand up straight".

To be fair, it is difficult to make Legends-sized combiners without compromising each individual. Also, he's a primal force to be reckoned with: which would do more damage, a pair of hands or a pair of serrated claws?

Hands are superior... its the whole opposable thumbs... claws can scratch and gash... so can hands, and with hands i can build a sheild and a weapon to kill your clawed behind.

I don't think Abominus has the mental capacity to build a shield or weapon. :lol:


I wish the hands looked less like untransformed monster-dragons, but if he can actually grab and lift other Legions then I'd be fine with them as is.

I, for one, am really digging the inhuman proportions of Abominus. He's an alien robot death machine made from 5 smaller alien robot death machines. He doesn't need to be humanly scaled.

He will need repainting into less loud colours though, that's for sure.

And let's face it, at least it's better than the G1 combiners.
