All the modes are really cool and even though the transformation is simple, it is satisfying. I love all the little pieces and the freedom you have in attaching them in different configurations. I even managed to get all of the pieces on him (or stored in him) in robot mode. You can store Scamper in his chest, Slammer in his leg, and attach Six-Gun's torso to the building on his back. Very menacing indeed. All the joints are nice and tight, everything fits together like it should and the stickers are nicely cut. This is exactly how a reissue should be. It has been a long time since I opened a figure straight out of the package and haven't had to fix, or modify a single part in any way. I highly recommend this guy, worth every penny. A+ | |

However I think both Metroplex and Omega make great transforming playsets for Legends figures. SJ's Feedback
Looking for: Carrobots JRX or Henkei Red Alert | |

It's nice that this is the rubber/chromed version.  | |

I wont be able to open mine until tonight so I get to stare at the box all day and torture myself. I wasn't paying attention enough before to realize that this version has chrome and rubber tires. That's awesome! | |

I did put the stickers on some (the foil sheet) were easily torn and they seemed faded. I would recommend reprolabels before the encore ones. Also some of the clips are too strong while others not strong enough. My original feels a lot more studier too. | |
