Quick question guys

Motto: "One look at me and you're lost."
Weapon: Requiem Blaster
Im wanting to round out my "Beast Wars" collection and have been thinking about generations Rhinox. I've seen 2 vids that didn't exactly sell me on the toy. He looks great but I'd like some of your opinions. Should I get him?
I have been into transformers since 1984.
While I love G1 I also love new innovations and takes on the characters.
I prefer official Hasbro releases of stuff for the most part
I'm not a huge fan of Japanese original Transformers media or designs.
It's easier for me to say which are my LEAST favorite toy lines: Beast Machines, Robots in Disguise.

I never had the original but I really like my Generations Rhinox a lot. He's a tough to transform at times with his belly but other than that he's great.

Awesome. I found a new Rhinox for around 13 on eBay. I went ahead and got him. I hope I'll like him.

I have both. The original was great for playing with. But as a display piece, the generations one is superb. He's got both guns that he can hold properly and he really looks like he stepped off the show. He can be a bit fiddly to get into beast mode and mine has loose knees, but he can support himself fine and he's in better scale than the original deluxe.
