3 things :-

1) That back-kibble is hideous >.>
2) I dont like the fact he's the same height as Megs.
3) The FE version is far superior in terms of bot mode.

Nuff said :D.

Thanks for another piece of S.H.I.T. HASBRO. The only powerizer that is any good to pick up is Megatron.

He's just about OK IMO. As people have already mentioned, I don't think he is as good as his FE version. However on the other hand he isn't a total disaster either, but as I already own the FE version, I doubt I'll get him.

I'm with you guys: I got the FE version, and I feel no need to "upgrade" to this Voyager version.

It's ironic that the Deluxe version does a BETTER job of hiding the legs in alt mode. And that weapon is such a waste. It's a terrible weapon for Optimus and looks even worse with Starscream. And what's with all the kibble on his feet? Ugh. :BANG_HEAD:

So then, from what I say, here are the Pros and Cons:

Pros:
Single missiles on arms (still unpainted, just like the FE mold)

Cons:
Fake chest cockpit (real one is on his back), foot kibble, wing kibble, back kibble, translucent arms, out of scale with other figures, out of proportion with character model (god, those munky arms), awkard face mold, horrible powerizer, worse than FE mold at hiding legs.

I feel these reviewers are being too kind with these RID figures. It sounds like they are trying to convince themselves that they did not buy a piece of crap figure. Mech techs look really bad, mech tech holes covering the figures, terrible powerizer plastics in random places, VOYAGER figures are now basically over sized deluxes and legends figures. None of the old classics and even movie voyagers have ball joint limbs. These plus the smaller sizes and the price increase (Target had deluxes for $16 and voyagers for $24 now) is bringing me closer to ending my collecting.

As much as I dislike a lot of RiD figures as far as accuracy and how they pail in comparison to their FE counterparts, I have to say I'm surprised each time I open up one of these guys. As far as toys, they are pretty fun. Quick transformations and decent articulation, perfect for the younger crowd... I just wish they had the FE still available for the collectors. I have little faith Hasbro will re-release them despite their claim that they will revisit the possibility in the future. If anything, they'll re-release them with stupid redeco's like "battle damage".
