still has no hips, but I do like the figure. If only ironhide had been made in this class. I would rather have had a little powerglide and a big ironhide. ohh well.

I saw Sean Long's review of this figure, and all I can say is that I want it even more! :mrgreen:

A lot of details.

Very nice figure a must have for me, but i will get the Henkei version. It's a petty not having a fire stair, but it's good this way to. I'm starting to see Grapple on this mold also. I hope they make him too, probably on the next summer i hope or earlier.

I still don't like the lack of his wings and the ladder, but i have to admit that i like him a lot better after seeing Sean's review.

I like him! Plus I remember having him G1 as a kid so I'll be picking him up!

I got mine yesterday and it's surprisingly small. Like, Classics Optimus small. About the same height in robot mode and the same length in truck mode. He's just all around bulkier, like an NFL lineman compared to a baseball player of the same height. I took comparison pics but their's something wrong with my cameras upload softwear but he is hella smaller than I was expecting. Still, when it hits stores I'm picking up another one to make into Motormaster.

There's nothing Henkei can do to improve the brillaince of this figure. It is that good.

I can't get over just how awesome that head-mold is. It's the biggest selling point of this figure for me.

I am little disappointed to hear that he is about the same length as Optimus. I was hoping a little longer.

All of the pictures that we have seen so far make the red paint seem glossy. Is that accurate?

It's a nice crimson color and semiglossy plastic. Color is the one thing I expect to never hear any complaints about. But between Classics Megatron, Onslaught, Blades, and now Inferno, I don't think Hasbro knows how to make a top or side mounted arm gun anymore! Seriously, I've run out of ways to make that look good.

EDIT: It's the same red plastic as Classics Hot Rod so it's a little darker than the red on Silverstreak. It's a really good chose of red.

this figure is growing on me big time. at first, i thought it was ok, but the more i see the more i want. lots of detail. i'm starting to really go for the boxier designs too.
