I have it, and I love it. He's a hit or miss, though. Fantastic articulation, but, of course, he doesn't transform. I've also heard stories of the arm cannon breaking off, but it hasn't happened to mine.

I just wish his nose wasn't so prominent. Great poses though.

He can pull off a great Hamlet pose with that extra head.

None that I can recall. He looks okay next to the classics seekers, I suppose.

Defanitly shorter. No the arm cannon isn't removable... Had to superglue mine...

A revoltech figure is around 5 inches in scale right? If they were only bigger, on a 6-7 inch scale..

I'm not a huge fan of white Primes, so I passed on UM, however, I agree. I would love to see a SS, SW, Jazz, Prowl, etc.

They have made more they're just not all Transformers (a good thing in my book). With each new release the Revoltech line gets better and better. Click on my sig for some galleries of some prime example from this fantastic action figure line.

These figures are great for a inter-toy company crossover display since they have the same size!

Indeed! I have all my Revoltech displayed together and they look great. Transformers, Evangelion, Giant Robo, Patlabor, Diebuster, Mazinkaiser etc.. all look great stood next to each other.

I just got my Revoltech Megatron on Tuesday, and I love him. He's extra posable and is just all around excellent.

I don't really like Megatron, to be honest. The other Revoltechs are great but I really don't like the looks of the Transformers.
