Via Baidu and Transfans Facebook we can share for you some promising news from the CICF X AGF 2020 toy exhibit in China. New third party company Moon Studio have revealed the gray prototype of their impressive Radiatron combiner (G1 Raiden).
Raiden is a 6-robot combiner formed by the Trainbot team seen in the G1 Japan “The Headmasters” cartoon. This is a very nice representation of this amazing robot. While only the gray prototype was on display, a color render poster was shown. We still have no concrete information on price, release date or images of the individual robots. Some of our users noticed that one of the left components looks pretty similar (if not the same) to Zeta’s Moon Walker (G1 Getsuei) revealed in TFCon 2019.

Here he is next to the Weijiang Sky Soarer if that helps:

Late reply, but I'm packing up my bots for an imminent move and just so happen to have those two on the same shelf.

I know this has been resolved already, but I wanted to point out that knee level alone isn't enough to judge because they could simply have different proportions and still be the same height.

You're certainly dedicated, I'll give you that!

You may be right, I just spent the last 45 minutes looking for more screenshots of these two fighting in various episodes:
The Happenin Rhinoceros
Raidens knee appears higher because it's closer., that's all. They aren't lined up 1:1
Dark Starscream
Nah, look at the height of the knees
The Happenin Rhinoceros
They look to be exactly the same size in that shot
Dark Starscream
Ah, so Radiatron would tower over POTP Predaking.
Thank you!
Although, that wouldn't be too far out of scale…
Curium
I did briefly consider it, but Cang is the only one in that size class (I can't remember if there is an OSKO of POTP or not) so went with that. POTP is the same as CW Devastator on the right below, TW Constructor on the left is the same Devastator in Mr H's picture I posted before, and the same size as Radiatron.
Dark Starscream
Thank you!
But I particularly interested in how he sized up with the POTP Predaking. I guess I should have been more specific.
Curium
Here is a pic posted by @Mr H in the Cang Predaking thread. It was before the last figure was released but I feel the height is shown pretty close. He also posted a later group shot after it was finished, but the one I saw (may be another I missed) didn't have him right next to Radiatron at least so I felt this was more directly useful for this question.

How does Radiatron size up next to Predaking?
When I have time to put mine together, I want to set those two up as rivals on my shelf.

They're too stylized for me.
Rollback is pretty spot on, but the others?
No way.
With Masterpiece figures, I strive for show accuracy.
These certainly aren't that.

Interesting. You don't consider Toyworld Throttlebot mastpiece? I get they are more styled as CHUG, but their size should be smaller.than MP cars so they scale well. Their G1 toy cars were goofy so the Toyworld representation is pretty good. Wideload is a pain the ass to transform though
Chrischzz
So.. when are they going to downscale this one to Legends size?
Actually would love that though.
Superquad7
I'm ready for a Masterpiece set of Throttlebots.
The XTB set is the one I've been waiting for ever since I passed on most of the Toyworld bots (I only got the Rollbar).
To each his own, of course, though.
Enfin
I'm still waiting for this set to be released with G1-toy inspired colours/moulding and whatnot. Specially the head needs the extra attention.
Sanity Bleeds
That seems much more likely than WeiJiang or any of their partners releasing any more of the OSKO of the TW Throttlebots.
Dark Starscream
ToyWorld really needs to re-release that Throttlebot combiner.
