    Where some people like the asthetic of this design choice, I\'m not one of them.. I was hoping for a fully colored figure.. But I mean, that wouldn\'t stop me (or others) from just painting the figure myself I guess..? But either way this would probably be a pass for me.

    Clear plastic is kind of boring, transparent blue would be cool!

    Clear plastic doesn’t make sense in the areas where there are no inner mechanical parts to show off.

    All the charm of going to an anatomy class on hallucinogens...I kinda dig it, reminds me of visible Frylock.

    I like TransFormers. I like a lot of Super 7's offerings. But seriously, wtf is this. I don't get the appeal at all, especially for that price.

    If all of him is going to be clear they could've modeled internals for the rest of him. This just looks silly and a disgrace to what it's paying homage.

    I think it pays homage well directly to its roots.

    Sorry, looks horrible with ONLY the chest having stuff inside.  $75 is WAY too much for that.  Easy pass.

    You hit something I've been saying for some time now. I don't see Action Masters as equivalent to "non-transforming Transformers." The specific size and cross-compatibility (all Action Masters could use each other's weapons and playsets) was an important part of the mix.

    If Super7 can emulate THAT, I'm in. If it's just "roughly 3 3/4" action figures that look like Transformers" (much less the 12" that this SDCC toy seems to be), I'm less enthusiastic.

    All that said, I'd LOVE a Marvel-colored (that part's key!) Action Master Ratchet. That's long been something of a holy grail/pipe dream of mine.
