I never bought into the whole "clear figures" trend. However, this toy has made me reconsider my opinion.

To those of you that have him, what do you think?

Is the clear plastic enough incentive to buy a figure I already have at the premium price-point?

Thanks

My opinion is that I told you that you'd be buying him, eventually.

Remember when I did that? :grin:

I think I had a micro-recorder at the table when that conversation went on...let me find it.

BTW, he's gorgeous. I prefer him to the blue club version, but this is also one of my more favored classics mold. They could repaint it in puke green and brown and call him Turdicon and I'd still get it.

I have him and he's well worth it. The clear plastic and black is a better representation of his invisibility, plus he should be cheaper than the blue BotCon one (more readily available). Also, he's been repurposed as Shattered Glass Mirage with his powers inverted: usually partially invisible, he now has the power of appearing solid. Yet nobody takes notice of him...

Yep. It was right after you laughed at me for saying "Maybe I will find a decently priced 07 set at this year's Botcon."

I was right to do that.

Yes you did, and yes you were.

CP, damn your correct-ness! I remembered exactly what you said.

I saw this guy on sale at BBTS and it got me thinking of buying him again.

There weren't very many reviews online (video or pictorial) to check out, so I am looking for some more opinions.

I went ahead and ordered him from BBTS. He is now in my pile of loot. I would still like some more feedback from other members if you have any.
