Razorclaw looks good, I like the new head.

Is that a Botcon '06 cyberkey with him though?

In style, yes, but the 06' keys were definitely not see-through.

I'm sorry, but this is an just awful, awful mold. No matter how well the colors have been applied, it's one of the worst molds ever made. I'd put this right in the sack of rubbish with G1 Quickswitch and Armada Sideswipe. The gimmicks of these molds completely destroy the robot modes. I'm glad this is not part of the main set and I can at least save a little cash.

Colors look good, though, so that's something postive, at least.

Given the number of people who will completely disagree with what you just said, and if you're going to Botcon (see ya there boss) you should buy it and just sell it for a profit on the aftermarket.

I didn't see the transparent plastic. Thanks for clearing that up CP!

It's a nice way for Fun pub to link this guy to the 06 set.

I know, but 'No thanks.' There's enough of that going on. I'd rather let the people who want this one get a crack at it without paying a scalping fee.

I haven't bought this mold yet, because I wasn't really a fan of its previous incarnations, especially Leo Prime. These colors are growing on me though, and I think this guy just might be my Universe Razorclaw.

Looks good! I want it.

Wow, with Leobreaker, Nemesis Breaker, and LeoPrime, this one will definitely be giving Cybertron Optimus and Megatron a new monkey-mode with one on each arm heh heh.

Good example of a well thought out repaint. Well done :APPLAUSE:

Yet more proof that an awesome paint job on a crappy mold is still a crappy figure.
Seriously, stop using this mold Hasbro, it sucks. It sucked as Leobreaker, and it still sucks now. And I saw this being a big G1 Predacons fan.

Thats awesome. I still cant find that Prime version and its pissing me off cause i dont want to order form hasbrotoyshop.

Yannow, I don't like the mold, but it isn't really THAT bad, y'all. Not like, say, Backstop.

In my case, it's the fact that I really don't like beastformers who just "Stand up, flip the head forward / back, stick the tail in the hand" for a transform...
