Those figures are awesome. Especially Rodimus. I can't wait to get my hooks on it.

Oh clear plastic, why are you so attractive?

I think the Rodimus head/face looks kind of...odd. I don't think he translated well, Animated style.

Nice job Diem!

Thanks!

His face is pretty unusual, and it makes him look a far more mature character than G1 or Energon Rodimus. His lack of nose and highlighted cheekbones make him look austere, but also make him look a bit like Odo from Star Trek.

More luck with those than the Seacons then?

Seriously mate, nice review. I don't collect Animated stuff (got to draw a line somewhere!), but am eagerly awaiting their Henkei bretheren...

Are there any clear Unicron Trilogy figures out there that are extremely rare?
