The legs are pretty immobile, and the spindly arm is kind of laughable and nearly wholly rubber, but the tank mode is so nice and chunky, but all his limbs kind of just squish together under his backpack, there really isn't a set place to set everything, I'd say avoid it unless you really want it - the head is truly glorious though.
Almost all those points could go to the leader mold as well and it is by far the most sought after Leader Class movie toy out there.

Which Leader mold? 'cuz the rotf leader megs' was trash and I'm not sure what your point would be about it

My point was just that sometimes a mold which isnt that great could still be worth it. For instance, you think the leader Megatron mold is trash, but I would still highly recomend you pick it up if you find it for 30$ at a yard sale just to be able to handle a coveted figure.
Also, I am sure the deluxe leadfoot mold isnt amazing just by looking at it, but ownging it at a decent price would still be worthwhile simply to have it as part of my collection and get to know what it is I might have been missing.
in the end, regardless of whether or not the voyager megs is an amazing mold, him finally being released in this colour is pretty hot and will surely be coveted, more so than that bumblebee. So through a financial outlook, he is definitely worth it (as is that Leader Prime). I dont own that mold, only the leader, and I have Grindor as well as a few voyager optimus toys, so I cant wait to get him so that I can recreate that forest fight scene and it would be in the right colours (well for everyone but Grindor). Thats worth it for me too

I know and you did a spectacular job, it helped me too (and pretty much told me it was very similar to what I dislike about the Leader version). I just wanted to give an extra perspective on the word "worth"

Actually, I've read this thread and I've seen a lot of talk about the other figures, what's the story with this Soundwave? Is it the best SW mold from the movieverse?

I've been eyeing this set for a while, but all them dollar monies.

Now the struggle.
Oh I'm not interested in any of the other figures, just my boy Soundwave. I was just watching it.william-james88 wrote:carytheone wrote:Thanks Will.

I was too, but I would never have purchased it at that cazy price. So this is great news. We get a nice premium deco soundwave for way less. And that Barricade doesnt seem so much improved over the one we got in th US, which isnt that expensive. You could find Barricade on E-bay for a very reasonable amount and you will end up with both those toys for probably half what that 2 pack costs.
