Obviously you are telling me that I have wasted my money on an Unleashed Figure for $35 AUS. When that $35 would be more better if I had bought an Unleashed Bookend... or maybe you were saying that you would rather prefer a Bookend to Unleashed Figure just because it doesn't transform and because you think it is crap and not detailed.

Well let me tell you something I would rather a 3d model, than a poster on a a piece of plastic or wood that might not be seen because your covering books over it. Or maybe you would put a Bookend in your Transformers collection and perhaps but it behind a Legend... too me, you would have made Transformers look bad... :APPLAUSE:

Can we please stop talking about Unleashed... you don't like em well I do... your not changing that lets just talk back about the Legends and why they are worth getting... so far I have heard some good comments and some bad. I might get a few, but that doesn't make me quit on the Unleashed.

You are right I just had a look at them...

The legends figures are possibly the best painted line of all the movie figures.

Reasonable articulation.

Geez, even most minicons have more articulation than the movie Legends.


I think you need to go back and check again your LOC collection because they aren't any more articulated than the movie Legends. I know, because I have them all.


Really?

Name one Movie Legends figure with knees AND hips AND shoulders (even if the shoulders just rotate). And then compare yet again with, say, LOC Starscream, LOC Vector Prime, and even if we limit it to knees and hips, LOC Evac, LOC Megatron/Galvatron, and LOC Soundwave.

Robot was designed that way from the start. It's like asking the Macross SDF-1 to have knees (tell me about it).

Basically almost all the Legends have that but thats not really a part of detail. Their paint is just slapped on too me... not enough of a good paint job.
