    I only wanted to grab this guy because I've wanted to display him as a claw for Cybertron Leader Optimus Prime ever since I heard about his release. The colors go great together! He just makes Prime look so much more fierce!

    He does look nice, but I wish they had picked one of the Takara Leo Prime figures and repainted them instead. This figure, unfortunately, does nothing for me. As cool as he looks (especially that paint job), I'm going to have to pass.

    Man that robot head looks stretched and stupid. Skipped him the first time, I'll be skipping him again.

    What's with the orange paint apps? They clash too much with the nicer red.

    It's just really bad lighting in the pictures. There is no orange on the figure. The red matches really well throughout the toy and as a claw for Prime. I need to get better lighting for my pictures. Sorry about that.

    It's amazing how completely fraking awesome those colors look on the mold considering they aren't realistic colors for a lion.

    But then I suppose we already had the same being true of an ape.

    I never knew about the claw combiner thing. I think that sells it for me. Otherwise it was a definite wait and see. Thanks for the review!

    Getting him then. One arm will be Leo Breaker, the other will be Leo Prime. They should make another one with a Megatron head to combine with Cybertron Galvatron. :D

    I agree that they should have released the BWII Lio Convoy mold into universe. I have 2 of this mold. Don't really need another.

    ...why does he have an Autobot logo on him in both the toy and artwork when he's a Maximal?
