Does anyone have this and would you recommend buying him? I can get him for about USD$80. It's supposed to stand 11" tall. Unfortunately I don't know if he's plastic or if he has die cast parts. Thanks!

Seeing how he's pretty much just a bunch of bricks, and you could just ake your own outta Legos, I'd say that he's all plastic. And really not worth more than, like $30.

Unless your a die-hard-o collecter, then you might consider it....When it goes on clearence.

Thanks guys! Helps a lot to make me decide. I will pass on this. Did not realise he was so obviously lego like.

I have an urge to make Transformers out of Lego after seeing that... wish I still had my Lego :?

BTW, No way is that worth that price.

I have my LEGOs in house, and often think to myself that I would like to try, but when I try, I always fall short.

Guess some of the creativity of childhood has left.

As a kid I had a mixture of Lego and Lego Technic and use to make helicopter gunships and robots and they'd come out pretty good - it's all about having the right bits.
