    So, got some pics of this tonight...not sure what to think. I mean, it's cool in a way, and all, but somehow it seems like a really odd choice to make an accessory of...

    *edit* Yeah. Apparantly these are handmade using ABS, probably from plastic sheet and rods. Would be at least $40 a piece. I just don't see that being a good move. So maybe not CHMS? Not sure, the solicit didn't specify CHMS< but everything else they offer is CHMS, so...

    I really like that. Breaks up the monotony of attempting to pose every figure differently.

    I think this is really cool. I can see why a lot of G1'ers may want to pick it up.

    Ok, I'm all over this.

    And, I'm not going to put him in the cage on the Autbot's side, I'm going to do it on the 'Con side, like he's bat-shit rabid and crazy.

    AWESOME idea, but the price point isn't practical.

    If it was metal/die cast, I'd think about it. But $40 for that?.......nah.....

    What are you talking about? 5$ max. Even then the wife would laugh at me for buying it at that price.

    metal/die cast cage? Awesome idea! $40 for a plastic cage... not so much. at least it looks decent with the detailing and the mini key.


    *edit
    i just thought that it would be pretty funny if the developer was actually CD and not CHMS. if that was the case, the price point makes sense.

    They should have made is a build-a-cage. With purchase of 4 or 5 different CHMS products, you get a piece of the cage.

    Too late man. Too freaking late. This fandom's self respect went out the door a long time ago. The CHMS cage is a very good sign for that loss.
