He looks okay as an individual figure, but as part of the Shuraking mode, he can be somewhat difficult to to pose. The port/connecting joint for the combiner mode is so tight. And for some reason, he seems shorter than the other leg counterpart.

this guy looks good! rachet and ball joints; only one concern and that is the chrome portion of the tale. Its a lil loose but you wont have any issues with it as long as your not being stupidly rough with it; the robot and dino mode is extremely well configured; transforms just like g1 with a couple articulated differences; you can hardly tell its a combiner. he is tall and heavy; the quality is excellent; take it slow on the legs the first time it a little tricky; I would advise you to watch the youtube video instead of reading the instructions(they suck bad)

GCreations is officially out of the gate, and their opening act is a Dinobot Combiner; competing directly with ToyWorld's same, but this will not be a comparative review.

Thunderous is definitely a step in the right direction. Quality plastic; good coloring, with excellent use of chrome highlights and metallic red with the glossy grey; intuitive conversion from Brontosaurus* to robot, with very little empty space left over.

That being said, nothing is without its flaws. Some joints are tighter than others, which is an inconsistency I hope GCreations takes to heart in future releases. On the dino neck, for example, the ball joint connecting the head and the lower hinge connecting to the rest of the body are annoyingly creaky, which does cause some mild concern of fragility for me. The fold-out pegs on insides of the giant combiner foot are EXTREMELY tight, making them difficult to use as the dino-mode cannons; while the dino-mode toe pieces are extremely loose, meaning they're regularly popping off just moving the arms wrong. There's also the extremely tight clips the hold the dino-neck on and the robot legs together; again, this gives a feeling of fragility, as if it the clips may simply snap if used too often.

Overall, SRK-01 Thunderous is a fairly good start for a new company, and hopefully the rest of the Shuraking team is only better.

*A recent study has given Brontosaurus a new validity as an entirely separate genus from the Apatosaurus; plus, it's named as the former on Thunderous' bio card, so officially...

Overall a great update to the original G1 character. GCreation got it right. All I really needed was the original figure with better articulation and greater detail.

However, the figure is plagued with early production quality concerns. The back of the tail doesn't want to stay together and the rivet holding the silver piece together popped right out. (I was able to replace it with a watch screw.) The company's reliance on clips is also worrisome. For instance, the clip that holds the dino neck in place is very liable to break off if converted too much. The only real way to get it in place is force.

I love the dino mode, but I'll probably be keeping him in robot mode mostly. I'm still cautious to convert him too much.

I can't find any contact information for GCreations online, but hopefully they'll do right by their customers like other companies and offer replacement parts and engineer better joints and pegs in the future.
