    I definitely plan on getting this, just going to wait a little bit for a few more reviews.

    Awesome. I would totally buy this if I actually had generations G2 Prime.
    However, the quality shown here gives me high hopes for Giant, can't wait.

    Excellent review, thanks for that.

    Now I'm real tempted to buy one to go with the United Prime I picked up at Botcon.
    BBTS or TFSource.... Decisions, decisions..

    This sums it up, except I preordered on BBTS a few moments ago.

    I REALLY REALLY HOPE it will get delayed until January.

    Nice pics! This won me over on the pre-order. I was at first HIGHLY disappointed when they said how much he'd be a few months back, but it looks like it will be worth it. I like how its not packaged in tanker mode, but just all the pieces. This looks like a GREAT start to Maketoys's stuff.

    Sorry I forgot to take off the leg missiles, I was in a hurry ^^; And it looked like I took it from not too great an angle.

    Captured Prey? :p 

    They just lowered their pre-order to $102 as well. So I'm still getting this cheaper than BBTS or TFSource! Yay!

    Fuck. My wallet just cried out in pain. I don't have a G2 Prime yet, either, so I'll probably have to pay through the nose for one. :( 

    EDIT: Well, never mind that... found one on ebay for $22 shipped and the wonderful girlfriend said "Merry early Christmas." If I wasn't so tired, I'd be having a Pinkie Pie level of excitement.

    Fantastic review! I loved the pics

    I hunted down a RTS G2 Prime (couldn't find United version anywhere) months ago in anticipation for this. Paid United prices off ebay for my stupidity (not picking him up when he was still on the shelves!).

    I found by just going over the crappy Hasbro grey used on the RTS version with metallic silver paint does wonders for the figure.

    Now I just need my BBTS preorder of the battle tanker to arrive and my G2 Prime will be epically complete! :rock
