Incredible. So glad I preordered this set.

They look great.. I don't know if I can swing that price tag though.

Holy saturation, Batman! That is quite the Decepticon Purple.

Haha... love this pic. Too cute!

Really impressed with the painted protos, looks like they were straight out of Hasbro's classics! They cant come soon enough!

just a heads up to you guys out there, its cheaper to get from RobotKingdom than BBTS! I ordered mine and it came to $5 over the BBTS price shipped!

They 'ruined' it by making it look like... Reflector. Right, got it.

Personally I wouldn't mind these guys repainted into something that could resemble a camera. It'd give me an excuse to add to my Shattered Glass shelf.

That is just BIG WIN through and through. I understand how folk think the colours are a little off, but compared to what we've seen of TFClub's version this has to be THE definitive Reflector figure of all time. My only concern is that the quality of the paint applications won't survive the transition to mass production.

Wow, knocked it out of the park. These guys look fantastic..and since I just added PE's Eject and Rewind, these guys will be added to the collection. I can't wait

I have enjoyed about everything PE so far from TFClub. While the Frenzy/Rumble's do not have great alt modes, I enjoy them and their subsequent repaints. Rosanna was cool, and Ratbat is actually an excellent melee weapon, and a so-so to poor TF toy, but I am excitedly waiting to send my BBTS POL with REwind(er), and Eject(or) with the Sun and Moon birdie-ish bots.

This set will be awesome to add to the Neo-G1 shelf and thanks to TFClub.

Oh good. I thought things were getting more complex in the 3rd party market.

You're forgiven.

I wasn't able to pick up the NotFrumble set, but I own the original Shadow Warrior release and I love the robot mode. I passed on the Ninja/Ratbat set bc of Ratbat's so-so to poor alt and robot modes but you may have just sold me on the melee mode. I'm glad to see that Refelctor will be slightly bigger. Hopefully, they will continue to slowly increase their scale and do the minibots =P~

I would love to get this but its too pricey :-(

Website · by **RK_Striker_JK_5** » Thu Mar 17, 2011 4:50 pm

I haven't bought a PE set I'm not happy with. I own their Rumble/Frenzy set, Rosanna/Kingbat and Rewind/Ejector and Sun/Moon ones. And their new backpack for City COmmander. They're one of the best third party manufacturers out there, almost up there with FP IMHO.

Bought and paid for. Just hoping their quality has come up since shadow warrior.

I think it has. I don't think any 3rd party maker products have been awesome to start, but all have gotten better with the more pieces that they have created.

I really like this. A touch disappointed by size but I'll probably end up with this regardless. I'm very curious to see what the other guys do now.

I think this set may turn out to be the more successful of the two solely because it is going to be released soon. TFClub has teased us with a lot of things but doesn't even have a pre-order up. At least I'm not aware of one. They need to get something new out on the shelf so we can see where the quality has gone. PE has tons of figures to refer to.

PerfectEffect have updated their twitter account with an image of the instruction sheet for their soon to be released PE-11 SFX Scouting Force X set. The set is an homage to G1 Reflector, but these little guys are armed to the teeth! The instructions reveal how they manage to conceal all that hardware in camera mode. The instructions are mirrored below.

News Credits: 5 · by **Doctor McGrath** » Wed Apr 06, 2011 5:13 pm

I am so ready for this. I love all of the weapons and the level of engineering involved with concealing them all in various ways. Yeah, it's a little small but that hasn't stopped me from purchasing all of their products so far. I'm all in.

News Credits: 1082 · by **Tigertrack** » Wed Apr 06, 2011 5:13 pm

I hope the quality on this is better than my Sundor was. Head in upside down, does not transform correctly.

But I still have high hopes for this set!

by **NTESHFT** » Wed Apr 06, 2011 5:15 pm

I so can't wait to get this!! It'll be my first PE figure(s) to get. I almost got the money saved for it. This one looks so awesome. I don't want to jump the gun on this, but I already feel this one is better than the TFC version. I know they haven't released anything other than the prototype pics, but I still think PE's looks better....
