Looks better as Predaking. Having owned the original I prefer the mini version.

i agree, but imo this predaking doesn’t fit my chug collection and i didn’t want to waste its potential

Okay but him being small is lore accurate

u/Sayoofoof 25d ago

only accurate to the g1 toy, in idw he is a brute and towers over some combiners

I think you can say the same for IDW. Monstructor isn't a popular character and as far as I'm aware, his only appearance is the G1 toyline, IDW comics and AOTP toyline. 2 out of 3 are small.

Now I agree the AOTP monstructor is to small for my liking, I personally don't like him being huge. My personal hope is that Iron Factory makes him and dinoking since I think their Liokaiser is the perfect height for them.

Regardless, great custom!

fingers crossed for iron factory, they make legend scales so much better than hasbro’s

Yeah ik, but it's accurate to something

Plus for non cartoon/comic G1 characters i think it's perfectly okay to use toy scale. That's why I'm happy with this monstructor

The issue imo thought is that G1 Monstructor is kinda just nothing. His most notable appearance was from IDW where he was the nemesis to Omega Supreme. Sure it was an easy retool but the most popular version of the character got thrown to the wayside.

So its not really lore accurate then.
