OK, I know some of you like these things. But as for me, these is just lame.
Three crapy bots that combine into one real big crapy mess.

No thanks.

No dude, I'm deeply offended. How DARE you have an opinion. Don't you know that's illegal on most planets? Hehe, just kidding (obviously).

I kinda gotta agree with you though. As much as I loves me some beast bots and some funky colored bots and especially some funky colored beast bots, these guys are just sorta "meh". I'm still getting them mind you, but they are going to stay in their funky beast modes never to be combined or transformed into those god awful, long legged, disproportionate individual bot modes.

I have the first set (the cars) and I played with it for a bit and then tossed it in my pile-o-toys-that-are-one-step-away-from-the-parts-bin-to-be-kitbashed (I really gotta come up with a better name for that pile of toys, it's far too lengthy and difficult to remember ). If I don't gain any interest in them soon, I'll be taking my screwdriver to them and dismantling them to use their remains as parts for some kitbash, perhaps for my ongoing behemoth of a combiner project that I've been working on here and there.

So he's like G1 Superion and Abominus too? Both 'bots had uber long legs back in their days.

Today on Transformers GO! Sensuimaru fights his most challenging moment yet- FINDING A PAIR OF PANTS THAT FIT!

Oh lord with the jokes... Some of you guys need to be PUN-ished.

This guy reminds me of Energon combiners. That's not a good thing.

I'd love to try him out and join the ranks of "he looks like crap and so I am buying him! HYUCK!" But for the import money? You guys should consider passing - unless he's that much more amazing in hand and you do a 180 on your negative remarks.

There's better 3rd Party stuff, honestly.

Do not want, that's for sure.

Buy it first then judge the the product. Compared to TF Go "Abominus", the TF Go combiners are waaaay more cooler on hand. I already own the samurai team so I can say first hand, am impressed. It may not be masterpiece class perfect but nonetheless a breathe of fresh nostalgia compared to Superlink combiners.

I for one miss official TF combiners in the market (FOC Bruticus not included) and if these sets sell to a profit for Tomy/Hasbro(well maybe Tomy), we'll be seeing more of them in the future.

P.S. If you read my post on Gekisoumaru part, he does look sucky individually (like a pregnant man) hence I'll be keeping them combined.

I have often used Seibertron's extensive galleries to both be put off of figures and be excited by them. The long legs comments have been mentioned by many. I don't think it is an unfair comment.

If you want to recommend that the long legs are not as noticeable by having the product in hand, making that sort of comment makes sense. But please don't tell us not to judge these (especially in bold text.) We all get to have our opinion, even if we don't have the figure in hand.

Thank you!

Pictures don't always tell the WHOLE story. Nowhere did I say to DISREGARD the long legs. I even mentioned that the components themselves were made to be combined, hence they do not look good individually.

If you want to buy it then fine, if not, well no great loss either. Money is scarce, I agree and pics are but one factor in your choosing a product but I have through the years come to discover "you can't immediately judge the book by its cover".

What you should do is first go to the hobby store that sells one then inspect the misb item first. Eyeball it then do the final judgement before buying.Deciding just by the pics itself is just.......seems kind of rushed, unless the real reason for holding back is the import price then that should be the final arbiter for your decision. Imports are really expensive that being the case.
