Regarding Nonnef's feet... Yes. I don't know why he's stopped making products, but I wish he hadn't. His feet may have been rough around the edges, but they were by far the best proportioned of all of the CW addon kits. I would love a pair the right colour for Computron and a black pair for Defensor. I managed to get three pairs from Masterforce, white for Superion, Purple for Menasor and Grey for Bruticus.
It's odd. He'd just announced the second version revision with the joint on the ball of the foot, and I don't even know if they came out, and now his site says he isn't doing them anymore. None on ebay, nothing anywhere. It's a shame.

It sure is!
What other feet options are there for combiners?

I think the only ones that are actually out are the Perfect Effect ones, and they just look too big to me.
I'm really surprised with a line like CW, which is just begging for addons, that 3P hasn't done more for it. They're just too busy willy waving with MP reveals.
3P Sideswipe, Jazz and a smart, well proportioned and articulated hand/foot set - sold. Just someone make them!

Depending on your preference for feet, there are KO Perfect Effect hands and feet sets on ebay for £9.99. A few people I know have got them and they are saying they are better than the actual "official" sets. Goink! I er, I might have to sample those. I'm really in need of White Superion hands to go with the Nonnef feet. The Hasbro black just doesn't work for me.

I ordered a set to try in grey for Bruticus, as the CW feet are awful. I have no issue with the hands, but the feet are far too small. So hopefully I shall have some feet within the next week to try out.

Nice! let us know your findings. I agree about the hands/feet. Menasor is fine with his own hands, but the Nonnef feet seal the deal. The size and the fact they're ball jointed at the ankle beats the Hasbro ones every which way.

I've been stunned, yes STUNNED, by the lack of 3P love for Combiner Wars! I'd be all over a Jazz and extra add-ons like shit on velcro!

I imagine a lot of it is because there's been so many left-field choices at the moment that they don't want to develop even obscure figures in case Hasbro do them. But yeah the lack of add-ons is strange!

I don't know if anyone ordered those KO hand and feet sets, but they all appear to have been removed from ebay. You may want to double check your orders to see if they will be honoured or not.

If Dragstrip wasn't there, Bruticus would fall over. Onslaughts hips can barely handle the weight as it is, never mind balancing on one leg.

BUT IT IS A STUNTICON!
ILLEGAL OPERATION!
SPECIAL TEAMS CANNOT INTERMINGLE WITH OTHER SPECIAL TEAMS!
That is not the way of things.
He'll be holding Superion's gun next, and then where would we be? Ralph would explode.

He is there until I can find a Brawl at a decent price. I won't pay more than £10 to just be a leg, especially when the mould looks as disappointing as it does.

So you just want to leave Bruticus without a leg to stand on! You're so cruel, Pinwig!

He could have a peg leg. Pirate Bruticus!

What a clever idea! Will any weapon not look comically undersized though?
