    Yeah, I don't like that style of feet either. Hasbro's new Springer has those and I think it looks terrible. Not a deterrent for me, and not something I'll rage over, but it's a design choice I do not prefer.

    That aside, this guy is looking great so far. I'm not familiar with the original toy nor the LSOTW comic but I like his aesthetics so I'll be following this one for sure. That tubby alt mode is fantastic.

    Okay this looks good, I'm glad it's not just a silhouettes reveal. I hope he comes with a ridiculous amount of weapons. I like this almost as much as I like presser it makes me want that to go with this.

    Could do with shifting a little of the forearm bulk to the shoulders, but apart from that, this looks crazy accurate to Roche's LSOTW's design. Definitely interested.

    Accurate or not, it looks chibi as all hell.

    I might if the price is right.

    "Chibi" is a good description of the figure. Not too bad, better than most of Hasbro's offerings... but I think I'd even question buying it on the shelf at Walmart, much less 3P prices.

    I'll absolutely get this. This is one of my all time favorite mold/designs from the late tail end of G1. Great rendition of the comic art too.

    Please, please flatten his feet back out. The A-stance cut is really not helping such a stout postured figure.

    with that name, why not do a mach 5 transformer?

    or a delorean TF (to update the micromaster mold) from the font style?


    still, looks, interesting, if, a bit bland.

    Is that what that does?


    I rarely use Facebook so have no clue what the inner workings of it are.

    Its marketing to create foot traffic, the more people who see your product the larger market you potentially have to sell too.

    And this pic release is going to be a Full Color bot mode pic according to their page so, lets hurry to 200.

    This is my first time taking notice to this. Another new 3rd party company, but they look to be doing a very slick looking figure and already promising some quick reveals. Thumbs up in my book :thumb

    The toy's name is Gauntlet, because it's not-Ironfist.

    Sadly the "likes" are slow coming now, hopefully it'll hit 200 soon so we can see another reveal.
