Also, question: Alert comes with a smirking face... does it work on Swipe?
Inquiring minds want to know!

I might be able to answer it myself tonight 8-}

Sorry guys, work, family, and real life are kicking my ass lately. Nothing bad, just one busy as all hell season of life.

As far as I can tell, the faces are interchangeable.

Also, my MP style Bruticys is taking foot.

He is gonna be a big 'un.

I also love that it comes with 2 chest options for Bruticys (not pictured) so you can have toy or cartoon versions.

Is that the Unique Toys version? Looks pretty dang baller if you ask me!

I was going to ask as well, UT?

Yep, UT. I have Blastoff and Vortex as well. Dwindle is proving to be a bitch to get.

Toy chest.

Cartoon chest.

Look, I've got an arm.

OH SNAP! He's coming together!! Two more bots left!

News Credits: 25 · by **Ironhidensh** » Wed Jun 27, 2018 11:08 am

Only one more, I have Vortex.

News Credits: 41 · by **Cobotron** » Wed Jun 27, 2018 2:17 pm

Coming together nicely! ;)^

How are the individual bot modes? Equally as nice?

4/5... preliminary thoughts?

Very happy. I really only have 2 complaints:

1) some of the tabbing tolerances are too tight, and it makes me a tad worried about damage when transforming. Though I guess that is better than loose.

2) the individual bot modes. They look more like a generation's style figure than a MP figure.

I'm really starting to love this 3rd party venturing into the movieverse.

What's the Bee? Those aren't the stock arms of the MPM...

That's the MPM. The arm armor is mistransformed, not folded back all the way.

I also love how it took till after TLK for the 3rd parties to get on the movie train
