Hi, apologies if this is already posted... had a quick look but didnt see it listed.

My girlfriend was out in Smyths and I asked her to check out if they had any new Movie transformers... their selection is crap but she did tell me that they have the Robot replicas available there now for 19.99.

Seems very expensive to me... she said they had Bumblebee, Barricade and Megatron..

Just a heads up that might help someone out.

Yeah, i feel the same way about them... I had high hopes when i first heard about them being ultra-detailed but when is saw pics of the final moulds I thought they looked cheap. Pity cause they had some potential.

One question though... are they in scale with each other or are they all just the one height?

Not a bad idea.... they should have given these free with happy meals at Mcdonald's (or whatever the BK equivalent is)

Hmm, I really want to see the Robot Replicas but they don't look that good...

I was messing about with the Alternator Shockblast that I picked up and i got to thinking that these are such a btch to transform that it would be better if they were just the robots with amazing detail... imagine the alternator scale with the movie details such as all those rings and gears coupled with proper posing ability. Thats what robot replicas should be....
