Transformers Universe Special Edition feedback thread

[heshanj]

hey guys....
got these figures a few days ago, and didnt see a feedback thread for it, so im just posting a few pics of these figures..if there's already a thread for these figures, please merge! thanks

if u want more pics, my mate solitudanal has already posted many photos in the news forum, i believe...check em out

SE-01 Optimus Prime




SE-02 Megatron




SE-03 Dragstrip




SE-04 Overkill






Prime




Megs




Dragstrip




Overkill








Prime has got to be the weakest figure of the lot..decent robot mode, but the alt mode is rather pathetic...the arms dont click back into the body properly, and the head shows on top of the cab, which is kinda lame..

Megatron is pretty cool in both modes...bot mode is pretty badass and the tank mode is quite cool too

Dragstrip is awesome, he's the whole reason i wanted these SE's to begin with.. he's a really good repaint of classics mirage.. very nice figure

Overkill is better than i thought, quite a decent looking repaint of classics grimlock.. looks good in both modes too..

all but prime are pretty awesome

It doesn't help a lot, but you should be able to turn the head around before folding it back. (on Optimus, that is)

I'm gaining a weird fascination with Overkill. I'm thinking the toy may work better as Overkill than it did as Grimlock. Looking forward to Drag strip too.

yup, it does..i only realised it some time after i took the pics definitely better than with the head facing up..

I got my Drag Strip and Overkill today. Nice figures, although as Deluxes I'm not 100% sure they're worth more than a typical Deluxe.

Anyway here's 2 quick pics showing them and the previous versions of the molds;

[heshanj]

nice photos ^^
ur right, theyre not worth more than an average deluxe figure...luckily i got a deal when u buy all 4 together, u get it for around the average deluxe price..

[MushroomPrime]

I perfer Trypitilock, but Overkill is pretty cool too.

Nice pics. I don't think these are better figures, especially at $16 each, but I preordered a 4-pack from HTS when they had a 20% off coupon.

[heshanj]

i dont think theyre better either...the coolest thing about them is the packaging and of course, dragstrip rocks

[BigPhill]

Yea, the packaging should get a special mention.

I don't think any pictures have been shown of this as it would probably be hard to capture, but the card tray the plastic sits in also has the box artwork on it.

Took some pics of my Drag Strip. Excellent repaint IMO.
