Cool little haul Billy. I love the Legions thunderhoof. What do you think? And despite his lack luster alt mode, doesn't that Prime make a great little action figure in robo mode? Also I think Bludgeon is my fave minicon so far. Love those horns.
I love those horns too, hence why i cant wait for Lord Doomitron. He will even be more purposeful, since he turns into usable wolverine claws! That will be my favourite. It's pretty much Bludgeon but with use


Legion Thunderhoof is very good. His head is excellent and I like the paint where it is, plus the tractor mode is very well done even though there isnt much there in terms of transformation. I like him better then the crab, since I would have really liked his pincers to move.
As for Prime, nothing could have prepared me for how bad that alt mode is. I mean, its... bad, real bad. Like no one cared. I am wondering if this is the worse looking Prime truck mode I have ever held and I think it is. BUT, that robot mode is pretty spectacular. Everything works. He has great proportions, I like the plastic, the colour, I like how his eyes are painted with hi pupils sculpted. And his articulation is perfect for that size class. Better than even the Generations Legends class toys. The hammer is cool and very well detailed (love those honeycomb Deus Ex Human Revolution textures) and I just love how everything fits perfectly both onto the robot and when it comes together as a hamer. Its such a precise science, I am impressed. Decent price too. I got it for 15$ cdn (11.68$ USD) and you get a lot of stuff. The minicon is good, the robot mode of Prime is fine and the dual purpose accesories are excellent. So yeah, great value but terrible alt mode. Looking forward to Grimlock. Oh and I think he scales well with clampdown, not sure about thunderhoof.

I was thinking of sending you a PM to express myself more freely about how much I love these guys, but I will instead keep it civil and clean here on the boards. Those are both excellent figures and I just love their heft. They look so great on a shelf and to transform (Megs more to transform and Shocks more on a shelf). I am so glad you have them now and at an excellent price!

He wasnt part of that same wave and was released later than the others in the states. We have yet to have any canadian sightings. He might not come (which wouldnt be a first for store specific exclusive, look at Walmart's AOE toys or the Platinum Blaster and Perceptor set).
