Third party company Cang Toys have revealed, via their Weibo account, an update of their CY-Mini-04 Kingmini.
While Cang Toys already finished their own Masterpiece scaled Predacons, they are also working on another Predacon team for the Legends scale. Cang Toys Predacons bring us a very stylized design, plus some original Predacons. Kingmini is a highly stylized rendition of Razorclaw. The mold have been updated with some small changes. The Combiner hands can form a crab companion and we also have images of the Combiner torso mode.
See the images after the jump and then sound off on the 2005 Boards!

I live in Hong Kong, don't speak Mandarin so Taobao is tricky.
Bombusbee is my go-to store, haven't had any issues here.

If you are concerned it might do you well to peruse their 3rd Party thread: Recent ShowZ postings.
It might help you make a call as to how reliable or trustworthy they are by looking around and seeing what people have to say and, perhaps more importantly, how they respond to requests and questions.

Is there somewhere thst people can rate on their service do I can feel more certain

Adding to the pile – have used ShowZ for a few purchases and the service and delivery were both top notch. Plus they answer questions on here.

At least half of this forum orders from either Bombusbee or ShowZ, both highly trusted.

Completely. They're my go-to sites nowadays. It can take longer to get stuff since they're based overseas, but ShowZ especially is possibly the best of the best. Average shipping to me here in Texas is about a week and a half to two weeks, but their prices are great, they have free shipping, a points system, they put corner protectors and package the hell out of your order, and their aftersales/general customer service is second-to-none imo. They do have the occasional miss, but I absolutely recommend them over US-based shops like TCP, BBTS, Toy Dojo, etc.
I know this reads like they paid me off, but I just genuinely love ShowZ.

Never used Bombusbee but ShowZ is fantastic—fast shipping and good packaging. They even have a dedicated thread here on the boards where a representative will answer people’s questions and concerns.

How trustable are these websites

Ah, I misread

That's not what they asked.

No. Tantrum, Headstrong, Divebomb, and Monkey Pants are out. Razorclaw and Rampage aren’t b

We've mentioned multiple times in this thread about silicone shock oil, and for good reason, every one of these guys has had a limb or two that is really screechy / godawfully tight, and one drop of oil later, perfectly smooth and non scary. A bottle is about 3 bucks, pick one up.
Destron1
Yes. The ones that aren't are being reissued in the near future.

Are all of the parts that are out for this combiner still somewhat readily available?

Ugh, Teenyrhino is gonna kill me… B3’s tracking states he was handed off to a local courier on Thursday, and he hasn’t moved since. Gonna be interesting to see if Teentrum gets here first now as he’s coughing up the coast currently.
/edit stuff
He’s here finally! And I need to beat someone with a sign that says “fragile” apparently as the outer box was crushed! On the plus side the inner boxes and goodies within were undamaged, so at least I don’t have to deal with after services to try replacing him with a copy that would somehow also end up crushed. Downside now that I’ve handled/flipped him into his three modes?
HIS RHINO BACK LEGS ARE GUARANTEED NIGHTMARE TIGHT. Like, I seriously think I saw the face of Primus shine down upon me after I finally got them rotated twice without breaking. His shin is also a separate piece that actually got me spooked when going back to bot mode and noticed the gold wasn’t on his knee. It had literally stayed tabbed into the backpack piece. It’s easy enough to plug back into the shin, but feels like it should have been glued. And yeah the combined mode foot is a bit of a pain to get on, but doable.
Tantrum is likely somewhere in northern Oregon (or even Washington by now), so hopefully he’ll be dropped off to the USPS and get delivered by Friday.

How tall is he
MrLemming
Jesus… I ordered that TeenyRhino (yes I know it's not his "name", but seeing how the MP one was HugeRhino I find it fitting) at about 12:30AM from B3 and only a few hours later was awaken by my email saying it had shipped already.
DracoPrimal
Indeed, and it's been a WHILE since then…
It's cool to see the minis of this set has the option of little Mr. Long Clawed Sand Hands

Maybe they'll reveal something by the end of the year? Not really sure what's going on with that. The last thing I heard about that was that it was being redesigned. After that… nothing.
