It seems another series of “wars” have started and Fans Toys have finally thrown their hat in the ring with their reveal of their Masterpiece-inspired Wildrider and Breakdown! Dubbed Magnum and Spoiler respectively, these two are Fans Toys’s debut for their Menasor project. However they seem to be taking a different approach in terms of scale, matching Takara in alternate mode scale and towering over Masterpiece car bots in robot mode. This does however allow them to match the Masterpiece Decepticons in terms of height like other combiner teams.
No pre-orders or release information is known at this time, but stay tuned for more updates on Fans Toys’s Menasor project and the rest of their expansive catalog and check out the pics after the jump!

I just took it as a chance to vent about how much I hate Roadking's sword

The 2nd Roadking trailer transforms into a complete legends sized Menasor to compensate for the small sword.

As DrCalligari said, Superiorion is getting his own gun. And can you imagine Menasor using Motormaster's already short and stubby sword? He would look ridiculous.
I'm curious if we'll actually get any more toy version from Fans Toys anymore, as all previous releases went on sale, which FT very much hate.
Magna Jet Convoy
Totally agree with you @DrCalligari , I would be more surprised if the skeleton parts didn't include the Cyclone Gun and Ionizer Sword for Menasor/Marauder. My post was merely pointing out the artwork proves (for the first time) weapons are confirmed for the big guy thats all!

If FT did toy version Stunticons I'd offer the pick of my internal organs to medical science (and then just hand over the money once medical science rejects them).
DrCalligari
I don't see why they wouldn't, Superion is getting his own weaponry.
Magna Jet Convoy
This is the first proof FT are giving combined mode his own weaponry. Wonder if they'll do the gun for him too…
magmatron
There's a chance he did both. We'll have a clearer picture when Jester comes out and what artwork they decide to go with for Superion.

This is fantastic artwork by our esteemed brother @Iohannes Vinci So FT are going with toy/ox artwork of combined mode and not 'toon eh?

Thanks a lot, you rock!

There are two small tabs that you need to flip forward before sitting the backpack flat against the back, I’ve attached some screenshots from Emgo’s video review

should be two clips that go into his back and then two pieces on top of the backpack that hold the rest of it in place

I just got Roadking. What an extraordinary figure! The mass shifting is impressive and the transformation is rather easy once you get the sequence of interlocking of the panels. It’s even better than what the reviewers said.
My only issue is keeping the backpack locked in robot mode. Is there a trick to implement?

I’m in for two Bandits so having one combiner core sitting in a box is a bit of a bitter pill to swallow.
I have been tempted to cancel one copy and sell the other 4 doubles I have but seeing as a lot of people are doing that I doubt I’d get what I’d like for them.
Maybe I’ll sell a set later on down the line when it’s complete and people want back in.

This is how I feel at the moment

i will 100% if they ever do it. But im not playing their game and paying $400 with a shitload of bits i wont use. I dig the dx9 and if he is all ill have for good ill survive. Itll annoy me far more to not have the final aerialbot as the zeta doesnt fit in as well.
Dead End14
Too bad they don't offer him solo.
