I'll pass, just because I have no need of humans in my TF displays. I'm glad they made these though, for those that want them. They look pretty spiffy.

All I know is these looked a lot better when they were prototypes. I think I might do 3D models and have them made on a Dimension printer.

not to knock em or anything but they arent even in proportion to themselves. Let alone the bots. I know producing custom items for mass production is no picnic, but a little more attention to detail wouldnt hurt.

Pass, they look edible. They should be similar to the SW:TF human figures or maybe a little bigger. Maybe mini-con size.

$64.99?? No. Pass.

$30.00? Maybe. (I could see $10 a piece being feasible, but this? Absolutely not.)

If you can make that happen, and it's affordable, you could make some of your fellow collectors some happy folks. I know I'd be on the list to buy.

Sari looks like a rakshasha.

This is just like one of those sets of stairs for your pets: good to know that it's there if you want it, but you most likely won't want it. I buy Transformers for robots that turn into other things. These are people who do not a whole lot. They're great and all, but I'll pass.

The sculpting job is very nice. I'm just hoping the execution of paint apps and swirls in the plastic where it's been injected in the mold don't ruin them.

EDIT: Wait, WHAT?!? SIXTY-FIVE DOLLARS?

Maybe... MAYBE 10 a piece. And that already would be making infant deities cry.

I dont really need them. They are a bit pricey. I may pick up the Sari though. My sister will like her. Shell make her get married to Bumblebee lol. :D
