    The sculpt is definitely NOT right what so ever ! WHY does he have fuckin wheels on his arms? That part doesn't even transform to anywhere near the bottom where wheels can actually be! Its the top part of the carrier. Let.alone the colors are way off ...
    Yellow windows? Although ar least that can be explained same with the blue instead of red on his chest .... but wheels on arms cant.

    They already said they are removing the wheels on his arms. No reason to curse them.

    I kind of like the wheels just because it's different. The colors are great although I'm undecided on the windows. On one hand, the yellow gives it a sense of life. But it does stand out a lot. I dunno. Maybe it should be that light blue on the shoulder towers.

    Imagine if MP's looked like this. That would be just incredible.

    If MP22 was designed without the restriction of carrying 4 MP Carbots, or any MP carbot in general, and his white cab does not have to be same size as MP10 Prime, I'm absolutely positive TTomy will pull it off. Although his robot mode may look incredible but the alt.mode will look too small. I thought MP22 made a good compromise. Yes, MP22 proportion is slightly off compare to his cartoon counterpart but as a transformable toy itself, he's the best of the best G1 UM as of today.

    Latest UM Statue pic from IA, I absolutely love it! The new colors especially at the chest and T plate are a huge improvement over that last time. Also, no more protruding peg and wheel from the lower arm.

    These are pieces of art. Absolutely gorgeous...

    Is anyone aware of any stores in Europe selling Imaginarium TFs? All preorders I have seen so far are from the US, and they only ship these big guys to very selected countries because of the size problem...(and my country is not in their list...:( )

    The price of these is in-fucking-sane. I could buy a running car for that!

    But that said, they're legit art statues, and it's pretty cool to see high-end elite statutes of Transformers available. I like to imagine them in some banker, or human-trafficker's $50M mansion in Fairfield.

    I think I'm more interested in the base than the UM itself :lol  if only I were stinking rich.

    That giant gun behind him - I bet it's there to cover his butt flap.

    Awesome statue guys! Can't wait to see it in person.

    I'm in the reverse direction. I can deal with the price, but it doesn't look good for me. Wifey refused to let me have him with his gigantic size at 25"x27" and our tiny room is so pack up, agrrr. I don't know what to do. This is best UM statue I have ever seen, beautiful sculpture with light up eyes and chest. It's a must have for me, but the dilemma... I wish IA could do a scale down of their TF statue to at least 6"-12".
    This should answer your question....
