I got these guys today and i just cant help but feel disapointed with these guys...

i mean yeah there cool and have all these pieces that can merge together when in camera mode which is fantastic...but i just cant help but feel there way to small for what they should be. I have PE Frenzy/Rumble and when i stand them side-by-side they seem alittle smaller in comparisson, well least to me they do

wasnt Reflector ment to be taller than the cassette bots?

i think the camera mode is fantastic but i worry about some of the smaller bits of plastic breaking such as the handle for the shield or the handles for the guns (they seem delicate to me) but i just cant help feel disapointed i spent £65 (thats like $99 or something) on these guys and that there so tiny

Also anyone else think those tiny army knife seem abit redundant? i cant see a purpose for them what-so-ever aside from possibly losing them because there so damn small and easy to lose

They are beyond awesome, but small figures are kinda PE's forte. To be fair there have been countless size comparison pics of this set with their Frenzy/Rumble and other figures so there really should not be any surprise as to the size of these guys.

They are small. I don't know about "too small", as there's a lot there. But, yes, very small.

I also don't get why they made the handles so tight. The knives on my set don't quite fit into their sheaths either. I put them into a baggie so they don't get lost .... which they very nearly did twice.

i found the knifes difficult as well but i found if i used my teeth to push them in...i got them to work...yeah i know its worrying if i swallowed them by mistake

i think there mega cool toys but i just wish they were a tiny bit bigger thats all

I'm happy with their size...they seem to scale decently with the other Classics. I can see the disappoint with how difficult it is to put some of their accessories in their hands, but otherwise I think these guys are fantastic. They're what's right with 3rd Party figs. Something Hasbro will never do...at least not like this, accurate to the original, and fill a proper void in your collection.

For me, they may be small, but PE packed a lot into them.

For being as small as they are, I'm impressed with the poseability. I like them myself.

You are saying the PE Rumble/Frenzy are bigger than the PE Reflector team??? They look bigger than Rumble/Frenzy in these pics in the linked thread below... scroll down and check em' out.

Small or not, you get a lot for your money. One of my most satisfying toy purchases ever.

i dunno...i think people are just saying there awsome because of the hard-on people get for a brand new reflector character in the classics series. i mean reflector has never been redone from his G1 version to this before.

its a great set of figures its just i wish they were just a tiny bit larger than what they actually are and possibly designed abit different. Maybe its because i handle my frenzy and rumble alot but reflector kinda feels as if im holding rumble only in a purple color scheme
