The only problem with the Crazydevy upgrades is that the new wings damage Divebomb's wings. There's a review on Youtube showing this. They get scratched up pretty badly. They also damage the stickers as well.

They also mention in that video that Crazydevy is making some kinda protector for the wings and stickers, which will be included in the wing attatchment.

If you look at my pic below you can see Predaking is King and a must have:



Even though I have him I am still getting the much cooler Gold plated one ... assuming its all metal.

There actually supplying new thinner wings for divebomb, so you replace your vintage wings with these wings they send, they also are sending a "support" beam.

You realize that your Predaking is mis-transformed right? You need to turn Razorclaw's waist around to show the Predaking codpiece.

And I usually prefer to combine mine they way he's depicted in most media; with Divebomb and Headstrong on the right, and Rampage and Tantrum on the left. It just looks "off" to me when it's done the reverse. But that's just me.

Good points. I can see why many people will pass on the wings. The thighs, on the other hand, is what I think will be must-have.

As someone who got the honking wings in the mail...well, let's just say they're in storage till the other parts arrive because at this point they make no sense at all...

It's weird that it comes out so soon, yet we still don't know if it will have die-cast.

Either way, I say he's worth getting. Especially if you don't have him already in some other version.

Mario from Automaton just got confirmation the reissue will be die-cast. Awesome!
