    I could accept that but with the up coming tidalwave I think we have a better option for broadside down the line.

    Got wave one voyagers and deluxes. Thought SP was goinmg to be the weakest as I unfairly (once again) judged from pics on here.

    What..a..fun..TF

    Train mode is really fun, my son calls it the "pain Train" or the "hate train". He take the rear of the train and puts one foot out for a "caboose"

    TONS of neat sculpted detail. TONS. Painters..you have a new one to have fun with.

    Shuttle is cool and does the job

    Bot mode is very charismatic. Lots of character. The popped collar that rotates is very neat.

    Result..great stand alone voyager.

    So ridiculously fun! The multitude of 5mm ports around the whole body provides limitless combinations of armaments!

    Just showed up in today's mail--

    I want a poster of the collector's card, beautiful artwork. I didn't realize the return of tech specs were on the back of card, impressed how it is the main 'bot plus the power of the head.

    The cockpit and translucent yellow canopy is amazingly detailed, bravo Hasbro. So are the shuttle wings, wow.

    The gun is another seat for a head robot, need more of the little guys.

    Colors are freaking spectacular; gray offsets the yellow, red, orange.

    I do see a very weak point in the method of attaching the shuttle wings and the cockpit, yikes.

    I have found 8 5mm ports so far plus the fists, thinking he might get some CW leftover weapons.

    Now, how did you remove the head? I pushed the pieces next to it down, still feels locked in place? I don't want to snap the Masters head off in the removal.

    I pulled the head straight up. Wiggled it a bit. But I realised I cannot fit it back unless the headmaster's head is facing the other way.

    Saw one of these the other day.
    That orange.... I was trying to decide whether it was striking or whether my eyes just got struck with a safety cone. It's just not my thing. That orange, to my eyes, is atrocious. Heck, give two of these to an airport worker and they can land planes.
    I do want the mold, but I'll wait for Astrotrain to enjoy it.

    Interestingly this is one where you either love the colors or detest them.

    It took a lot of force but I removed Infinitus. Once removed I trimmed the gray collar where the head attaches, sanded a burr off the side of Infinitus' head, and rotated the little head so it is oriented the same as Sentinel's head. It removes freely now but I might clean up the voyager side a tad more.

    Very loose elbows and ports are too big to hold the guns properly.

    I only have the problem of loose ports on the ones on the wing-hinges.
    The rest are fine. No loose elbows either.

    And no I don't think we should have to do this kind of stuff, but it is what it is

    Anyone thinks that the shuttle mode looks close to the Ark from G1?
    Oh wait that was already pointed out... silly me

    I changed my mind,at the end I'll buy also Astrotrain:rolleyes2  .Not a great fan of the character in the fiction,but the toy is so fun!

    Sentinel has a much better face than Decepticon and in both vehicle modes orange is good but in bot mode mode is too bright,sometimes I like it a lot but in other moments it makes not so immediate distinguish some details.

    On other way Astrotrain has better train colouring,is more detailed in this mode ,and body has more various colouring.

    So I'll still buy Sentinel to display him in bot mode next to Galvatron and Cyclonus(in my collection/personal universe, Sentinel is a fallen character that acts exactly as in DOTM), and Astrotrain as toy to play and transforming often.

    Is it possible to mistransform the train mode to look less like train but more like...battle ship or something that travel on water?

    Actually I think it works better that his train mode lol

    But be advised it is a floppy mess as nothing tabs in to lock the legs in position

    My Infinitus' knees and hips are laughably loose... Other than that, this is a fun Robot...

    Mine's the same; the holes are a lil too big.. hopefully a coat of clear nail polish will help fix that!!

    As for the orange, I'm gonna add a bit of blue to break it up..

    Yeah thats kind of how I'm thinking of displaying him when I get him. Its like how I have Doubledealer, he'll be displayed in between Autobots and Decepticons. Gotta love how they portrayed him in DOTM as thats now my default personality for Sentinel.
