Check out the edit, bro; I found a couple of things and addressed your gripes. He might be about to gain more points.  |

The wrists are awesome news (the gap doesn't bother me at all) and the feet look way better, though the legs themselves still look a little fudged, I can live with them more now that I see the feet can look more like robot feet.
So far, three confirmed buys for Universe mainline figs for me. XBL GT: SPLITTLIP Quote:

Plus, I'm sure they'll cram some inappropriate chrome on there somewhere.  JARODIMUS Newest Addition(s): TF:RotF Fearswoop & Soundwave ("Gathering at the Nemesis"). |

None of the photos released thus far have any, and they are all different from the Hasbro decoes. They aren't going to be part of the Henkei line, officially anyway.

Besides, wasn't Onslaught blue to begin with?
Bring on the Mega Octane repaint! (please?)

But after this review, he's become one of my most anticipated new figures in the line. Now I just need an Octane/Tankor review to get more excited about him. |
