Like, maybe it's something really subtle; but I've got Universe Cyclonus and Bluestreak and quite a few Cybertron figures, and I honestly don't feel anything that different about their plastic compared to my Thrilling 30, CW and TR figures. Even my FoC Soundblaster feels fine. Or am I missing some other point?
you and me both

I only got those 2 and Mindwipe at the at the £20 price hyke, as I managed to get Hardhead, Blurr and Skullsmasher at the original £16 point. Your right £20 is ridiculos for a deluxe, when considering that for an extra £5 you can get a voyager.

However for only $10 I was able to bring myself to pick up the ONLY other figure from the Titan masters line that I wanted...Hardhead.
And what did you think of him? Was he as you expected or better or worse?

At that price, do others interest you? I know Blurr's paintjob is not great, but its a really good mold that could interest you at that price. Its a bit good and bad because a ton of effort went into the sculpted details on Blurr (like WAY more effort than any other figure of recent memory) but the lack of paint of highlighting of this sculpting makes him look bland instead of highly detailed.
Thats one cool thing takara did, on the legs they put a coat of white paint but thin enough that it wouldnt completely seep through the cracks, making it look like panel lines.
It shows you the effort of the sculpter. Anyways, the sculpting is still there on the hasbro version and at 10$ I think you'd like him.
Plus, unlike CW, there is the use of clear plastic again.

Exactly. I wouldn't mind paying £16 - and I'm glad places like TRU and Forbidden Planet are still pricing them at that, or at least £17 - but £20 has been my main problem with the line so far.
Where did you get those guys for that price by the way?
