I believe that's just the lighting....

Squint and move your head to the side of your monitor and sight down the barrel. It looks pretty straight to me. :-B

I wish they would just release an entire upgrade set instead of secton by section.

Yes, the lighting and/or angle of the photo makes the guns look a little crooked but I doubt they really are.

Put anything straight up to your monitor and align it with the back section. That barrel veers to the left. It isn't just my eyes or the lighting.

Man is that ever true!

I'd be into their stuff, but I'd prefer to buy it as a full set, since you never know if they will complete a full upgrade, or what will be in it.

I get why they did it for the Devastator stuff, but I hope they would have enough working capital now to produce a full upgrade all at once.

Yeah, I totally agree. I'd prefer to get a full set – with a little discount for buying the entire set.... not to mention saving on shipping.

For the Devastator set, I wasn't able to buy the entire set before it sold out... then had to buy one piece through a 3rd party for inflated prices. I'd love to avoid that drama and just buy the entire set.

Not doing much for me. Lighting or not, looks crooked.

Yes, an entire set please! this trickling out is now officially ridiculous.

And it only cost $99.99!!! :roll:

These guys are pretty much a joke to me now.

Yeah, I'm with you. While the quality has been top notch... the cost is painful, and prohibitive for a lot of people. I'd love to see Devy work to put together some complete packages... and explore options to drive cost down – maybe mass producing the items at a higher quantity or such.

Meanwhile the G1 Optimus Prime upgrade set from BTS toys is a whopping... 19.95. For a lot more stuff.

This is probably the cast resin prototype, rather than the final injection molded ABS.

That said, it's still wrong compared to the cartoon (or the comic, FTM), which is what I want.
