Despite its flaws, I like it. I'll get the Entertainment Pack version with Megs and the kids. Then I'll get the Voyager when that comes out.

Looks pretty nice, but I'll be getting the Voyager mold instead.

Yikes!! he's HIDEOUS!

Those forearms are terrible! that wrist joint hinge or whatever you call that totally mangles his arms up. IMO. Plus that panel attached to said "joint" makes it look like he's got wizard sleeves.

And his upper thighs look like girl thighs. And he's wearing girls underwear by the looks of it too.

He just doesn't seem very well thought out to me. AT ALL.

My question is whether the matrix packaging will be damaged after taking out the toy??

Incredible transformation for a Deluxe.

Oh, and this is how you do a review. Camera was well aimed, he was well spoken and didn't ramble much, if at all. Impressive.

No it wont. The back of the matrix lifts up. it's one big panel and you can take the plastic tray with the figure out.

He didn't do the front of the truck mode right.

I'll be waiting for the Voyager.

Yes, but would any of you walk around the SDCC wearing this thing around your neck?

Well you surely wouldn't. I know I wouldn't, but that doesn't mean no one would and I'm curious to see who'd do it. :D "FLAVOR FLAVE!" LOL!!!! :BOT:

Why wouldn't you want to proudly display your prized Matrix upon your neck for all to see and grovel over? :-B

I'd have to be really drunk to consider it. Better yet, that hot babe on my arm can put it round her lovely neck and wear it instead. That would be far more entertaining. :-)

I lol'd at him justifying how much he spent on it, multiple times. Robot mode is meh. And saying that the truck is too plain, you like the movie toys huh? Come on, you can admit it, you like movie toys lol

I like it, but wont be buying it.

Keep in mind that getting this figure is the only way to get the very nice-looking Deluxe Megatron figure and the human figures.

Well, then I'll have to do without the Megatron figure and the deluxe human figures too. Meh. Not me.

Well, I want that Megatron, so this figure and the kids will just be extras to me.

I agree that it is a good review, although he makes the same mistake again and again. Its a Prime figure, not a Animated figure. Unfortunatly he wasn't flawless.
