I think this is decent enough. The backpack shouldn't be as big a deal because it's actually being used as a backpack to store weapons. The legs could be better but they look ok from the front.

 

i know, thats why i think most of the main line stuff sucks

 

OOOOHH YEAHH!   WJ FTW! 

 

Oh yes. All the pictures in the gallery were taken without any use of support. he didn't fall down, either. The feet can balance well, and the legs swivel  

 

also, whats with hasbro not giveing characters mouths? (most prime optimuses and deluxe wheeljack)

 

I'll get me a couple of them....Is there a release date for the US yet?

 

Its most likely because they want to keep it original (G1) At least I think..

 

i guess, but when a character has a mouth, i want there merchandise to have one too

 

Well I do think Hasbro will be releasing Prime without his mouth plate, but it will most likely be Orion Pax

 

hopefully they'll do the same for wj, maybe they could jusify it by giveing him some new weapons, i'd gladly welcome it to my wj collection  

 

looks like they created the gimmick of the toy first and just built the entire thing around it. While I think it's very cool, especially for kids who have quite active imaginations....It's a pass from me. But only because I love the more adult collectibles like: MP Soundwave.  

Awesome toy for little kids.

Horrible toy for picky complaining man-children.

 

your quote is full of WIN.   esp the part where 'man-children' are concerned! LMAO.

 

probably the first time I'm going for takaratomy only instead of both

 

.. and they still want to give us everything but the First Editions....

 

Honestly, the only things that are irking me about this figure are the unpainted pea-shooter gun and the unpainted feet. thank god for black gundam markers. Likely gonna buy this when/if i see it

 

I've done a review of this guy, check out my sig  

 

he looks cool .. But why does everything have to have a gimmick now ? All that hood gimmick does it take up space that could have been used to hide the arms in truck mode. Really wish they would forget gimmicks all together and just focus on a better bot mode... This is a maybe figure for me if i see it on clearence most likely..

 

first i was like ~ oh, he's not so bad ~ sure the backpack is big, but i could probably live with it; then i saw the truck cab booty and all the hollowness, yikes. The exposed hands are pretty bad in truck mode too, especially since it looks like some hinged panels on the backs of the legs could solve both of those problems...

 

They sure could have

 

Glad to see this bot in the news...SydY loves dropping pics of him on my wall..  

He's wonderful, but I ordered the clear one.
