Thanks to the Botron War Facebook page we have some final color images of their 3rd figure in their WB01 combiner (Unofficial Bruticus) WB01-C Sly Strike. No other details are currently available other then these new images. Check out the additional images after the break and then join in the discussion with the link below.

Same! It works wonderfully for me, and I like this a lot!
TheDirtModeler
Awesome! I also have the Liokaiser and Warbotron Bruticus. I am still trying to figure out which Menasor I will purchase!
Potchez
This is my setup.
I like the Menasor being smaller.

Thanks!
Thanks for all of your help! And I’d appreciate pictures with WFC stuff in all 3 modes, but whatever works for you works for me!

no, generation toys/transformations

1.) Mine is the "reissue" that was at BBTS and the like, last year, so I don't have the same experience as those who've owned it from the beginning, but it's still sturdy on my end.
2.) Generally, they're fine. A little wobbly in spots, some soft plastic here and there. (Nothing that outright feels like it's going to break. No point in not being careful, though.)
3.) I can try and get you some later today. Just know that they're between Voyager (tall) and Leader (WFC-ish, akin to CW Voyagers.) Onslaught is old-skool Leader Class from T30/CW onward through the end of Prime Wars. He's not quite as tall as Skyfire, but he's no shrimp. either.
4.) I absolutely can recommend them…for $170, shipped, or less. Anything beyond that and you're going to feel the burn a tad.

That'd be TransFormMission Havoc. They're one of Warbotron's other names along with GenerationToy (Guardian/Defensor). The regular color is harder to come by, but a metallic version was released recently.

Thanks! Hey, is that Fansproject Menasor on the right?

I recommend it for 100$, otherwise as I said before, the Jinbao ver. is Warbotron but better and bigger there's no point of comparison the quality is superior, WB-01's quality is not that good, tons of stress marks across the figure, wobbly hip joints, the scale is great with WFC Stuff so if the price is good buy him, makes s good display piece, but again Jinbao Warbotron is just better in every way

Heylo, sorry for thread bump. I’m looking into maybe purchasing one of these, and I have a few questions, if y’all don’t mind.
1. How have these guys stood up to the test of time? Any notable QC issues that have worsened overtime? Any fixes I might need to perform?
2. How would you guys say it feels to handle these things? Anything particularly annoying?
3. Could I get some comparison pictures in individual and combined mode with some modern figures (I.e. WFC & Legacy stuff)?
4. Finally, would you guys recommend these things, and around what asking prices should I stick to?
Thanks so much!

I've really enjoyed this set. That said, it's a much easier pill to swallow at the close-out price than it is at the original MSRP. There's no way on Earth this set was actually worth the original asking price. The quality just isn't there, but the price I paid? Absolutely. And while it's larger than the CW version, I'm okay with that because military vehicles tend to be much larger than what the public uses. As for Blast Off, I just consider him a drone rather than a space shuttle, akin to FP's take, so he fits the "scale" better. With that in mind, I really like the set. I'm not 100% sure it'll replace my CW set because I do like those molds, especially Swindle and the Hasbro repaint of the Tak-Tom Blast Off, but man…this set checks all the boxes for me.
Slustor
I got mine. Wow they are great. I had the Jinbao version and these are much better. Yes there are tolerance issues, but nothing I was not able to fix. Dont regret it whatsoever.
BookBarbarian
Ditto. I love the updated military vehicle altmodes. Especially Swindle and Onslaught, and I think all the robot modes look good.
If someone wanted CHUG sized Combaticons to display as individual robot s this is hands down the best set.
Creegor
You probably won’t regret it. They’re pretty cool, although antiquated. I really like the stylized look they have
Slustor
I ended buying one. It includes the replacement chest for Blast Off. I should get it tomorrow, so looking forward to it.
Thanks Everyone for all the feedback and tips.
BronzeLeagueHero
Personally I wouldn't recommend the set unless you can get it at extreme discount, the quality of engineering and the plastic has not stood up to the test of time.
Creegor
You absolutely NEED to disassemble the feet and shave down the clear plastic piece used in the ratchet. If you don’t it will destroy itself.
