I am still looking forward to your thoughts on him as a toy, and the transformation.

I shared a few previously with that big photo laden post, but all in all I think he's a real treat. I mentioned I was so intimidated by him at first, but once I got into it I realized I had nothing to be afraid of. He's intense, complicated, and time consuming, but SOOOO worth it. I love how he's really broken down into 3 stages. The chest and back pack, then the arms, then the legs. Once you understand that over arching order of things everything else is cream cheese. His shoulders and skirting bits are the only thing that gives me trouble. Time and practice will fix that.

As an action figure in robot mode he is absolutely MARVILOUS! The articulation. The character he emotes. Just fantastic!

@Cobotron - what did you think about the cartoon faces?

They're fun for the emotions they convey. The maniacal laugh especially. But my favorite is still the toy face. That evil blank stare is just frightening.

I would have gladly traded the extra faces for a chrome sword, though. Or, even the mace pieces.

A higher price tag for fewer accessories

Looks like there are a couple options for a Megatron sword..

Man I'm tempted to try and convince you of a face swap

Silver of course

Does anyone have any recommended paint to touch the figure up the light gray, dark gray etc?
