That's a hell of a reason not to buy a toy. 2007 Optimus didn't look like his CGI version, nor did 2007 Starscream (bearly). Almost half of the figures of the bayverse line don't come 70% close to the CGI apperance.



A reasonable determination is on articulation (and kibble amount, I guess), accuracy on how you want the figure to look, and so on. I understand this is your method, and that second reason came close to it, and I don't want to change that. It's just not the best method. Do whatever you want, though. Have a nice time toy hunting

leader ironhide is awesome

I'd get him, if I wasn't hoping for a leader shockwave down the line. The leaders are $30 at Target though...but probably not by the time Ironhide's there.

It was Starscream that killed Mirage. Soundwave uses his head as a puppet to torture Bumblebee. As for Wheeljack, um...well, do you want to be spoiled? If so, I'll tell you.

As for Soundwave...no. He's not crushed. That too, I will tell you, but only if you want to be spoiled.

Now, onto the main topic...

I have no desire to purchase the Optimus Voyager mold. Blech. Sentinel just isn't done justice by anything but the Leader Class. It's an excellent figure.

As for Ironhide...he's awful in Leader Class. I think it's great they went for ease so kids could enjoy him, but he's pretty simplistic, and waaaaay out of scale. Not to mention his colors are just awful. He's an easy pass for me. Kinda sad though, I was looking forward to him at one point. =\

I got Ironhide and absolutely love it. It's the best of the DotM line so far. Way better than Sentinel could ever be. I wish Shockwave got a leader Class, but he probably won't. My GF got me the Voyager, so I won't complain anyway...
