Matrix of Leadership Statue...Worth it?

Postby Collector Maximus » Mon Nov 19, 2007 1:19 am

Who here has the Diamond select Matrix statue seen here...
http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/prod ... ode=retail
I want to know a bit more about it like dimensions, details, etc. I think I really want one but I'm just not sure it's worth $150 + that it's gonna cost. Does anyone have it that can take a picture of them holding it or next to a TF?
Many thanks in advance.

I have one and I love it.I didnt spend as much as your saying it is now but wouldnt mind paying that much for it.The only thing I dont like is that it doesnt light up unless its on the stand.The Key to vector sigma is a nice addition too.

It does likght up in a few different colors so I'll try to take a few pic's tomorrow.

Phenominal, that is a awesome piece for displaying purposes!!! I'm convinced, I will definitely keep that one in mind while building up my collection... Just need to get a cabinet or build one of my own and then I will start building sets of my Transformers!

Thanks for the pics and description, it really does truly help making decisions in the long run.

This might give you a better idea of the size. It's almost in scale with a real person, the finger holes are a little to small though.

Yeah, it's nice and all but does it play "The Touch" when you hold it over your head?

hmm...Frankimus Prime...I like it! lol

I think I may be getting one of these. I'm building my self a throne, which I'm going to put in my basement...I suppose I can wear it around my neck when I'm sitting, and have it displayed above the throne when I'm not. 150 is expensive, but definitely no more expensive than a throne! XD
