do you have the figure yet? it does seem cheaper but I would think it's on par quality with the rest of em'... though it would be humorously ironic if it was made of somekind of plastic paper mache' lol

one of the TF universes most paper armored warriors...
kind of like that silk armor card my friend had for Magic xD that made me laugh

I think most of the movie figures are made of cheaper plastic in comparison to the classics line. Movie Starscream, Leader Prime and Leader Brawl are 3 obvious exceptions to that rule.

Movie Ironhide is one of my favs, but he does feel quite cheap as far as the plastic goes.

Yeah, he feels very cheap!

And there's three separate parts that fall off in transformation (one of which is his HEAD).

Not cool.

I do love that little guy with his capture claw tho.

I have yet to transform him without the Grill popping off.

Plastic is not cheap, it just has thin panels by design. Older figures used the same plastic, but differently.
