plus, he looks so...Bionicle. must be those thin arms and ball joints.

He was in the movie you know. The bio for him says he was brought to life by a stray bolt from the Allspark or something like that. Did you look at the vehicles Sevtor 7 was driving in the end of the movie. Landmine was among them!

Hmm well if the seller is heerotoys... then I can give you my word that after having over 12 transactions with the seller I can say he is INCREDIBLY RELIABLE, despite the somewhat confusing specifications he lists (its obvious English isn't his first language, so give the guy some slack...)

Most of the things I've bought from him, I recieve the item incredibly fast, a few times I got the item 2 days after I paid for it. If you guys want to bid on the toy but are cautious about the seller, don't be afraid, the guy is pretty reliable, at least from my experiences I have never had any problems with him.

(ALSO a worthy note: Heerotoys is also the guy behind all the worlds smallest transformers reproductions such as the trailer (the original seller and maker of these), and he has been working on remolded seekers to give us worlds smallest ramjet and thrust. I know he put a few runs of his prototypes of the two for auction in the past. Not sure if he's mass producing them yet.)

My reactions went as follows:

"Sweet alt mode!"

"...damn, the robot mode is ugly.

"

"Well...not too bad."

"Wow, poseable...and cool looking!"

"Why is this guy an Autobot??"

"Does he.....have rollerskates?" :lol:

In conclusion: Buy.

Wow! Thanks for the link!

Does this mean Landmine is already released somewhere?

I like the wheel feet, but I amm concerned that the sliding joint that holds the wheels down will loosen eventually, and he'll no longer be able to stand (as the wheels on his heels will simply slide upward under his weight, causing him to fall over backward).

Looks good overall, but I don't trust the feet and head...

Hawt.

I liked this figure when those first images were released but after seeing all of these I'm not so sure. I really like the alt mode but I'm liking the robot mode less and less each time i see it.

I might pass on this whole line and wait for animated.

Damn, that one looks bad ass.

not bad, don't like the feet much

Not a fan of the head.
Nor the "Allspark Power" Blue on him.

Otherwise he looks to be an outstanding figure!

Nice pics. I believe the official US Army designation for this is the Ranger Assualt Vehicle. (if anyone was wondering)

This guy makes Beachcomber look like a complete weenie! I'll be getting this one (as well as Stockade and ....)

I think the artist for the Transformers movie just made the design up. Here is a photo of the vehicle on the set and the design sketch.

Not if there's some sort of lock for the wheels in robot mode.

With regards to posability, this guy is the Allspark equivalent of Classics Mirage.

Could be even better than Mirage.

Hmm, I guess it must be made up. But it is pretty similar to real ones:
