    Yeah... I'm expecting roughly the same price as IH and Ratchet.

    He is coming out.
    Price not confirmed, I imagine less than $100 as the tooling is more simple than PP05 and there are far less weapons, although one of the unannounced weapons / add-ons is very cool.
    Same basic transform as Warpath,completely different figure.
    Slightly bigger than Warbot Defendor.

    Someone needs to combine these two threads.

    Looking good. Hope he's not ridiculous expensive and hope I have a job by the time he is released.

    Exactly. Plenty of official Transformers use the same or very similar transformations so aside from the usual anti-3rd party BS I don't see why it has to be brought up.

    While I agree with your sensible, reasoned viewpoint, and I am a self confessed I-gear pimp and whore, I can unfortunately see why people are so quick to point fingers after the Faith Leader and the Seekers. There really are two sides to i-gear, and with the PP05 video people saw that this was a whole new ball game, I feel the Mini Warrior toys shook the third party world by providing great, wholly original designs with great presentation for a very, very reasonable price, I just hope upon the release of PP05 and Presser, and the continued NEW DESIGNS moving forward, people realise that I-gear have come a long way.

    That is, if the bumblebee repaint as Herbee doesn't call down the wrath of the all powerful mouse.

    I disagree with you on the bolded price. They were not very, very reasonably priced. These things cost $15, shipping from Asia costs about $20. These things were free with the cost of the lowest shipping price possible. It still boggles my mind that they took so long to sell out. Once I saw the price I made my first purchase via iGear and it hasn't been my last. I want the other 6 like..yesterday!!!

    It is not really a bad thing, but I would say the reason I rank FP, Maketoys,Perfect effect, and TFC above Igear is the amount of origional engenereing.

    Still looks nice, and I look forward to seeing an in hand peice. If it is bigger the Warbot and is even close looking to this I shall buy it.

    It would be nice if we see a pre-order for this come up on BBTS soon.

    Why would you pre-order from BBTS when you can pre-order directly from iGear's store at a lower price?

    Because of customer service and it's in North America... If there's an issue, it's easier and faster to get stuff sent locally.

    Personal preference I suppose. One BBTS does not charge me until the product comes in. Second, any time I've had a QC issue with any products, BBTS has replaced them, no hassle no fuss - I kinda of like that and gives me piece of mind. To each their own, you now.......

    Really pleased they dropped the battle damage / weathering deco on this, that would have looked odd in my collection.
