Holy shit. I have been waiting forever for this. Obviously the best character from the G2 comics.

EDIT: Oof. I forgot how much I don't like this mold. The shoulder range is bad and ther are no wrist swivels =/

 

how does this work?

 

You got any more pics of your G2 sideswipe? he looks good!

 

I would kill for a Deluxe size version of this toy.

 

I'm with you there. I think if some company started KO'ing IF to Chug sizes they'd make a killing

 

To each their own of course, but I think if you upscaled them by 30% you'd start to gripe about the ill fitting pieces, the lack of detail, unless they were on a shelf high, high up. These guys are great *because* they are small.

everything is ready, just put it in my mouth now
Stiil in hope I can get this badboy right before Chirtmas    

 

I need this in my mouth. It's like, what even is my tongue anymore, other than a stand in for this.

 

you guys are killing me with that mouth talk...everytime i read it i just crack up 

 

Ordered  

 

weird.....BBTS has his height at 12cm which really sounded wrong to me from the start.

i didn't think IF oversized their own stuff

 

No, he's only 9cm, just like the others. 3-1/2" tall. Perfect size for my collection XD

 

yea i didn't think he was that big...then this means BBTS TFSource and a few other places have the wrong size for him red alert and maybe a few other IF figures....that's pretty bad. could give people the wrong idea about what they're buying

 

Oh dang, you're right. I didn't even think about that since I have the Racing Bros original set. I know it's not the first time they've done it with IF figures too =/

 

Yeah, I was a bit disappointed with how small they were. I was expecting something larger based on the description and considering how much IF charges. However, given that we're getting so many other bots that are scaled to them, I'm still on the IF wagon for now. I wanted to stick to just MFT, but IF, MS, and NA are clearly making that an impossibility.

 

No he's only 9cm, mine shipped from taobao, should arrive before Chirstmas

but the platics quanlity and paint jobs of IF are excellent, I can't stand the cheap platics of MFT

 

Man he looks so good. I'm not really a fan of the limited shoulder range, but he just kills the look.

To order, or not to order...

 

Anyone care to share the best/cheapest place to order this from?

 

AS far as the e-tailers I frequent, BBTS is the only one that has him up for Pre-Order so far:

IF-EX26H Racing Bros. Heavymetal Limited Edition Exclusive

Probably available elsewhere but this is the only one I've seen.
