    Wow, an update from iGear? They went made crazy with almost daily updates for awhile and then almost nothing for a few months.

    I have to say, this IS a great update. The prototype looks a little rough still, but only because the orange color looks a bit off. It looks too plastic'y. I realize it is plastic and all, but it doesn't need to look like plastic.

    Based on how big Optimus is there, I am starting to think this set might be a perfect fit end to end on my display shelf. I can't even fully explain how awesome that would be if it was.

    Glad to see they are progressing on one of their original projects. Probably the most ambitious one too.

    Form-wise, that set looks nice and complete, but I wish they kept the glossy finish that we saw in earlier photos. Someone in Radicons could make that set look boss.

    More importantly, where is my damn Magnus hammer?

    looks pretty cool. I hope I gear gives it an "OLD" looking paint job. That ship was stuck in a mountain for a couple years. It shouldn't look like they just made it yesterday but either way, they got my cash.

    This will be perfect for my 1984 Autobots. Shit, this will cost less than it would to replace my old S.T.A.R.S. command center!

    Beautiful, but could use a little more paint-app detail IMHO. Still glad it's pre-ordered.

    Yes. A bit too bright orange. I hope the final product looks more like the on in the pic of Optimus looking at the small Soundwave on the floor.

    And, well, Soundwave will not be orange too, right? RIGHT???

    It needs some storage mechanism for the Gear of War 1 set

    cross compatibility > competition

    That doesn't sound like a bad idea, actually.

    That looks great! Plus a mini Soundwave makes everything cooler.

    Even some carefully planned pegs ala G3 project's storage of Classic's Prime and Magnus' guns would be nice.

    They must have just updated, because that wasn't there half an hour ago.

    I don't care for the head and missiles, but that hammer is an absolute must, though a part of me wishes it was still green.

    Ehh...no thanks. These items don't appeal to me in any way. And the neck of the head makes it a bit out of proportions with the body...
