    Ha! Looks like Menasor is still available. Poor guy, no one seems to want him.

    I can hardly blame them. I got one, and the back of the thigh kept popping off.... the screw hole was stripped, and it had to be superglued back on. Titanium QC is just the worst.

    However, aside from that, he's a nice figure. I prefer him to Rodimus Prime, actually.... the deco is much more flattering. I wonder, though..... would he have sold better if they had ditched the poorly-chosen "Menasor" name and just called him "Black Rodimus" or "Nemesis Rodimus" or something? People tend to go gaga over black repaints.... but I wonder if that was counter-acted in this case by the name?

    I agree. I totally see that selling so much better with just a more relevant name.
