You know, I think they should have gone the faux abdomen/chest route on this figure. And then use the real hood to fill out his back a bit more.

 

Not at all the representation of Knockout I was looking for.

 

I agree, but then again car modes aren't the same either.

I do agree though that the Prime RiD figures all scale pretty well with eachother though.

Smaller figures are here to stay - thank the Fed for thinking inflation is an awesome way to beat the debt crisis, not Hasbro for adjusting that reality.

Personally, I can handle smaller figures - it's crap paint that stick in my craw though Knockout has plenty, it's just weirdly applied IMHO. Prolly going to grab him as I have become strangely addicted to these Prime figures. I just love how awesome they are to play with, which is in direct contradiction what I thought I loved about movie figs.

 

Knockout looks good sorta makes me wish I collected from the Prime toyline.

 

Never too late to start!

 

Sure wish the back of the legs compressed so they didn't look so chunky and square. I'll pick it up for sure, but I sure wouldn't object to Hasbro taking another crack at it at a later time.

 

I do agree, even though I think this looks good. Maybe give him the saw next time while still letting him be able to hold the original's prod.

 

Oh...Im with you bro. IMHO, I do not mind a smaller TF as long as its PACKED with awesome transformery gravy. I LOVE cyberverse..its actually becoming my fovorite line with what H is offerening now. you wont find me bitching about size.

Its just...DAMN...they have NAILED every one of these so damn good to comp[are to the show, and..this one...jeeeez..just...not very representative of the character. still may be a decent TF, just does not look much like the show character at all to me.

And I 110% agree about your 3rd paragraph..

 

It's a real shame they couldn't budget in the gold rims, might fix that myself (and I never do that). It's far from an A+ figure, but it serves well enough for the character. I also think the small size is a feature, not a bug, as it's hard to overlook his bang-on perfect scaling with FE Starscream and the Vehicons. They put a bunch of plastic into his (awesome) staff.

 

Looks good, looking forward to him  

 

It's weird, maybe I'm reading this all wrong but it seems Hasbro is doomed if you do, doomed if you don't with the cheat vs. non-cheat chest argument.

 

Still pretty excited for him. He looks a little goofier than I thought but still cool. I like his weapon and the car looks sweet. Not gonna pay for him unless I see it retail though, so might not get it afterall.
Someone should start working on a better head for him though. I really dont like the Animated starscreamish smirk. I think a deadly stare would have worked.

 

Not as nice as he could look... he really needs a new gloss paint job to highlight him. He looks so cheapy plasticy, and his boobs need to also angle a bit in bot mode, and/or be a bit wider. He just seems lacking, a bit. I was really looking forward to his toy release, but this is a little lackluster compared to my expectations. He's gotta be BLINGY, afterall, he is the "Tracks" of TFP

 

I have a hard time believing Knockout would ruin his patients' complexions by scarring them.
Speaking of ruined complexions, this toy is hideous. Pass.

 

I do wish he had some better paint though. I'll be getting him anyway since I love Knockout so much.

 

I think that if he didn't have the ugly maroon colors (at least they help off-set the toyish red colors, I guess), then he'd look much better (besides his obvious non-paint problems). I might still get him, but I'm looking forward to the Cyberverse Knock Out more.

 

Is wave 3 out in stores yet?
Really looking forward to the figures coming in this wave

 

i like the vehicle mode and the robot mode ill judge when i get it

 

Well, with alot of posts I read I think your right on. I dont really mind cheats too much as long as it yields two solid modes. But yea...from the collector fandom pov..id say your right..

I would go back to the hated DOTM voyager prime mold. I LOVE the fireburst repaint. Still one of my favs from the line. I heard so much bitchin about that cheat, yet, I just liked it because it was a cool, solid toy in both modes even if it wasnt representative of the DOTM prime itself.

 

The thing is, not cheating means this toy gets a cooler transformation.
