That figure is such an obscure reference it makes it an instant win, that mould suits it well IMO.

He shall go with the rest of my CHUG figures :-)

This mold works a lot better for Axor IMO. Very cool figure. And it's not important, but this is my 200th post! :DANCE:

So does Lockdown's. I remember them commenting on it during a Q&A or something. It's a nice little homage to Animated in ROTF.

Seriously considering getting this guy. I may actually pass up Lockdown all together to get this guy instead. But neither are particularly high on my list, so hopefully I can find both on sale sometime soon.

You know this is one of those retarded tiks for me that would cause me not to pick up a paticular bot. I don't like opened hands all that much like Axor has or like a lot of scouts seem to have. I don't know what it is that it just bugs the piss out of me....I know crazy! Little things like that or when ROTF Thrust came out, I passed him up because I didn't like the design of his feet. Stupid things like that have an effect on my choices. So I'm gonna have to think reeeeeeally hard on this one.

He is pretty damn cool all around....but that hand...that freakin' hand!!!

You're not crazy. Open hands are pretty useless. They can't hold a weapon and can't even punch. They can only slap, and a floppy slap at that, since it is rubber. I like Axor, but it's make Lockdown look like Runabout.

by **Tyrannotaur** » Thu Aug 12, 2010 1:47 pm

He gives off a Jason Vorhees vibe. I dunno why. Maybe its the Axe or the hockey mask like face. I love the lockdown mold so I'll buy Axor once I see him. He looks Awesome.

Instant win, I've been looking forward to this for a long time.

Also, wtf CHUG?

Unfortunately, it's also a racial slur for Native Americans in some places.

I like this figure and I dont mind the mold but I HATE the soft hand.. Luckily, it looks like his weapon is hard plastic unlike Lockdown's.

Thank you guys for making me feel like I'm not crazy. All I'm saying is they changed his head sculpt, they switched his now cooler ax like weapon for that crappy captain hook. So why couldn't they make a closed fist for him? I know "could've" and "should've".

I'm suprized! I thought everyone would not like Axor. When i was looking at the pictures i was most certen that everyone would complain. Strange.

It's a term more commonly used for a Chihuahua and Pug mix.

Hey peoples...after recently picking up Axor and after changing him back to alt. mode I noticed something. I only wish had noticed before first time transformation. There is a space in between the front windsheild and the hood, so it looks like they just don't make contact leaving that space from side to side of the windsheild. I'm going to try again to see if maybe there is some obstruction but after watching a video review I could have sworn I saw the same thing on the video.

Anyone else out there can relate or comment or is it just a few? All in all I'm happy with the figure itself and I think if Hasbro had done a better job with arm articulation there would be less of a figiting factor in transformation and posability. So if this has happend with either Axor or Lockdown I'd like to hear from you all and thanks!
