About as appealing as a whiteboard.

It's also almost triple the price of the US release.
Less paint + more expensive + common sense = No.

And TBH, the only good figs out of the GO! line are the new combiners and the Predacons.

Note I said Smokescreens, as in both GO! & MP Smokescreen.

Orion Pax, Megatron(us )

1) I have no interest in Orion.
2) I was never a fan of that mold as Megatron to begin with. Waiting for Dreadwing

and Metroplex?

Where's Metr-Oh...

Nah, man, I meant the guys with the photos that aren't microscopic.

Guess that means the Sanjōhaōken and the golden Kabuto helmet are fine too.

Not really

Missing the beak and the alt isn't as gray as it should be
It's more of the BotCon 2005 Deathsaurus than the original:

Though giving it a distinctly male face looks wrong, since Ripclaw's torso still has a feminine shape. To me, the end result looks as much like SheZow as Deathsaurus.

The shame is that giving that mold a more humanish and feminine head in those colors could've finally produced a passable toy of Esmeral. Get on it, Headrobots! Then I'll actually start importing this line.
