Some cool fan configurations that was shown on TFW, you can have Bigbit's fish head be a monster hand instead of the grey combiner hand, or Thousandkills tentacles be extensions of his arm mode for a crazy tentacle hand, and one where Thousandkills (in monster mode) sits on Poseiden's chest as a sort of new head.
Looking back on reviews of these guys in light of the Selects Seacons...it's funny watching all the different configurations people go with. You could probably make an alignment chart out of it. (For the record: Skalor (right arm) Seawing (left arm) Tentakill (right arm) Nautilator (left arm) Overbite is always the gun)
I actually tore up half my thumbnail trying to work out Seawing's connection point. There's some kind of grease that they put on the sliding parts of these guys, and the connection points are hard enough to get out as it is. So as I was trying to squeeze it out of the gap in the back of the left, my thumb slipped down over the edge of it and bent off a big part of the nail. That hurt like hell, so fair warning to others. With that said, I agree with everything said here. This set is fantastic, and as these were my favorite combiners from G1, this set did not disappoint. Most of the figures are just FUN to transform, and not overly complicated. Slap the Reprolabel set on these guys that's out now and they just look phenomenal in any mode you want to display them in.
I knew it! I knew this was the last one on tfsource i kept staying on the fence about! Oh well. Truth be told peaugh, this guy selling out was the last nail in the coffin for my decision to buy the team or not. BUT THEN. As usual when i watch your vids it swayed me vack and now i done and scraped up the whole team... I have been subbed since...2007 iirc and you've swayed me on a lot of buys. To think, this week of vids may not have happened if i had gotten a substantial raise at work just a week sooner than i had :0
I'd honestly buy a Scylla-colored Thousandkills with some minor retooling as a solo figure. Otherwise, I feel these are far too stylized to look like the very cartoony, toyetic BWII Seacons.
Nicely done, I have to consider the arm joint fix. I didn't realize the best method for the neck part swap was so... invasive. These guys are so great. The lack of purple is a pitty. Can you two-hand the gun? Quick Q: Ocean sword vs Oppenheimer? Personally, I love this combining blade to pieces.
That's gotta be the best torso transformation I've ever seen. Still, with zeta doing bigger combiners for so much less it's really hard to justify full price for this set.
My only gripe with this set is with most combiners and that's handling the weight and posing. Granted, this guy looks like he can stand straight well enough but it would have been nice to get a little sword action or target master hip-firing. I'll give them credit though, they made a good combiner who seems to hold himself well enough.
i am very hesitant, mainly the amount of kibble on this guy as a while prevents me form combining them or even buying them at all, but they are nicely priced on amazon sooooooooooooo.........
Dammit, I want one now, but my shelf space is little to nonexistant right now, and I've already decided my tax refund is going towards the Lego Technic Bugatti Chiron this May. :'(

Great review, this figure looks like a lot of fun and clearly TFC has learned a lot from MMC Feral Rex.
"Load him down with weapons, and he gets a little tipsy"
So would you say he's...
Drunk with power?
Nah he just getting his sea legs.
Thanks a lot Ben! I was on the fence about this guy, now I want it!

This guy has always been my favorite out of the G1 combiners and this 3P version really makes him justice.
Id buy him twice if done in his bw2 white scheme

I think this is the only 3P combiner for now, that is scramble city. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Fans project menasaur is scramble city
Fun week! Can't wait to get mine in.
Where? Do you have a link?
StathIsOptimus TFsource is where I got mine
I can't find it amywhere. Any link anyone? Or the name of the fix???
This set would look awesome in God Neptune colours.
I'd honestly buy a Scylla-colored Thousandkills with some minor retooling as a solo figure.

I’m hoping they do a reissue in God Neptune colors. That’s the one I really want!
There's something so.. ka-chunkey about TFC Toys! :)
Poseidon's head needs to be a smidge bigger.
been waiting allll week for this! helll ya!

Ocean sword wins, I think.

If you say flip the combiner ports on all of them..meaning 2 you would use as legs..how would it affect it?

Man all those bots look good in robot animal and combiner great looking set
Man, now I REALLY regret selling my Bigbite...
Could you send the link for all the variations please?
I was never a fan of the Seacons, but this looks nice.
I feel like this is more pointed towards the chug line. 🤔
Are you getting any of the Zeta combiners?
Yep, OK, looking at them all together it definitely is a shame Cyberjaw doesn't have more purple...
and now I just realised why you call people getting a bit drunk "tipsy".
lolled when the "G1 Seacons" came out.
Awesome review! One question - will flipping the combiner port affect both robot and monster mode in anyway?
It hasn't that I've noticed.
peaugh cool! I've tried it out on both of them too. Thanks for the tip!
You're welcome!
That sword!!🔥🔥🔥🔥
GATTAI KING POSEIDON
You should've used a mat on that smooth table surface.
You wouldn't have that slipping problem.
so did you figure out how to combine there guns
Not yet.
Poseidon is one kibbley mess I love it
it was a good long week
i am very hesitant, mainly the amount of kibble on this guy as a while prevents me form combining them or even buying them at all, but they are nicely priced on amazon sooooooooooooo.........
Dammit, I want one now, but my shelf space is little to nonexistant right now, and I've already decided my tax refund is going towards the Lego Technic Bugatti Chiron this May. :'(
That sword design is ABSOLUTELY amazing / genius design. Shame it's from Too Fukin Clunky.
Finally!
I don't like the colorscheme. Other that that, great figures.
Why the fuck not a single youtuber shows how to transform fuckin legs
Codpiece because he's piscine...ha!
