    Looks very accurate as all the RR's do, hope he has good articulation.

    Even with their weird articulation, the Robot Replicas were some of my favorites out of the movie line. Seeing Starscream here makes me a VERY happy camper.

    I thought they said they weren't doing the RR line again for this movie cuz they were for the most part shelf-warmers. Figures that cost the same or more than their deluxe conterparts but don't transform. I could see them selling to collectors but the majority of the market these are made for are kids that don't want non TFing TFs. Maybe they should be online retailer exclusives. Looks like some of you guys like them, so glad they're making more for you guys

    Robot Replicas REALLY disappointed me. I saw the prototypes, and they looked AWESOME... the finalized toys were NOTHING like the toyshow items. The paint was sloppy and hardly any detail (I saw one Prime at TRU that had the eyes painted on the top of his head! I wish they'd make detailed characters the size of the Marvel or Starwars Unleashed line.

    Here's hoping someone actually put effort into designing these so they were worth the price of the plastic.

    The originals failed when the sculpt itself stopped those lovely revoltech-style joints from being usefull.

    Oh yeah! My kind of Transformer. Screw the vehicle mode, just give me a great robot mode and I'm IN.

    If these are actually decently posable, I might get a couple. I'd like to see RR Sideswipe actually.

    Cool, but I doubt I'll be getting this unless it really impresses me in person.

    Looks good. Will buy when I see it for sale. RRs are modern day Action Masters.

    Eric Siebenaler (Transformers Animated lead designer) I believe is doing the Robot Replicas for movie 2. So you know they're getting SOME love. Not that they didn't get love in Movie 1, but I think this time around there's a little more attention and detail going in to them then the first sculptor gave them (not designer, sculptor!)

    Did i miss something or someone edited the title? How does that person know this is 100% robot replica? It looks a size bigger and more detailed than RR.

    I most certainly want this.

    I wanted something like this for the first movie... but I am so happy they're making things so much nicer for RotF.
