I'm not feeling this. Got the PE also and I prefer to more G1 look. Also got to save the $$$ for all the other goodies. Sorry TFC...but don't worry, I'm getting Uranus

The ALT mode receives a high score. With 2/3 of them being twins and not all 3, the bot modes are less Reflector like than PE. I applaud the effort and may buy it at a lower price if it goes on clearance like Sonicron and the Impossible Toys Quintesons did.


The road to success is always under construction.

I agree with the alt mode...1st rate. I do love the realness of it.

I think I might get this set if it ever goes on sale or clearance....but it's definitely an inferior set taken as a whole.

We simply don't judge Transformers product based on one mode alone. We have to take into account robot modes as well as alt modes and other factors. Thus, although this figure has an AMAZING alt mode, I cannot ever deny that...it just doesn't work as a representation of Reflector. Neither of the three bots have any personality and they look generic in a bad way. Accessories are lame and don't really do anything. A shield...a base for the lense...and a pair of guns...? Really. PE Scouting Force X gives us two shotguns, a sniper rifle, a shield, a pair of missile pods, combat knives, a jet pack, and a minigun. The minigun and jetpack can turn into a big ass bazooka, and the aperture in the main 'bot can mount the gun as some kind of crazy chest cannon. Plus, PE Scouting Force X 'bots are all identical, but because of the accessories they get, they pack a TON of personality. Sure they're small, but I think that's part of the charm. They're small but armed to the teeth, and they pose well and look great too.

If I got this set, the shame of it is that I would leave it in DLSR mode for the majority of the time. For 160 bucks I can get a Nikon D70 body used, and I could get a decent lens in the 80-100 dollar range, giving me a real DSLR. With that in mind, I would much rather spend a bit more on a real DSLR and actually learn to use it and do photography, rather than spending 160 on a fake camera with sub par 'bot modes and accessories.

I feel the same as most on this, nice camera mode but the bot modes and accessories are subpar.
