This is another fantastic Dinobot release from FansProject following along the same vein as their not-Slag and not-Sludge.
The packaging is decent and is exactly same as FP's previous Dinobot releases. Included in this set is a new enhanced hip for LER-01 Columpio. While the new hip isn't necessary, I thought it was a good piece of customer service offering a set of stiffer hip joints for a previous release. I installed the new hip on my Sludge and it makes posing him a lot more easier.
Included is the alternate colour upper body for those in need of a show accurate Swoop but I like the red and kept him that way.
The manual is just a manual. No comics or backstory included, only the transformation instructions. The last page, bottom picture shows a shot of Grimlock, which I guess, is the next release for FP's Dinobots.
Re: FansProject Lost Exo Realm LER-03 Volar and Velos
The face sculpt is nice but (here I'm nitpicking) i wish there was a visor look as an alternative. The wings have a pretty good range of motion. And the missiles can be mounted on a few places like under the wing, above the wing and on the back.
The targetmaster, Velos is by far the best one of the three released by FP. No weird extraneous kibble and just plain looks nice.
Using the Tuna Standard, Volar (Swoop) is five cans high but his wings and missiles give him quite a boost in height. Velos is the typical size for a Dinobot targetmaster.
As can be seen in a group shot with the FansProject Dinobots, there is a size difference between them, so there maybe some scaling going on amongst the group.
Overall, I'm happy with the third release from FP and look forward to completing this set post haste.
