Transformers Prime AM24 Silas Breakdown

Rattrap · 12-01-2012, 11:54 PM

Got him today at the WI meetup. Awesome figure. Definately worth the price. I have him and regular Breakdown and both are awesome and different enough that I dont regret getting both. Head sculpt is fantastic as well as the Silas in the stomache. Only down side is his plastic feels REALLY cheap. Like I havent had an official product with plastic feeling this cheap, and I bought almost all of the current figures. It doesnt bug me much, but I can see where people would get annoyed, and also be careful cuz it could break easily.

Saw it at image anime. sweet head. Looks really nice overall. I'm passing as regular breakdown is enough for me, but this one came out really nice.

I couldn't bring myself to pay $90 or so for the regular AM Breakdown, so I sprung for this version from BBTS. Its in my PoL so I won't get it for a while, but I am super jazzed.

At the same time though a little uneasy since I just spent $50+shipping on a Voyager that doesnt even come painted. Guess we'll see when it arrives.

Because his head, face, eyes, side doors, hands and kneecaps aren't painted.

I don't mean entirely unpainted. Just mostly.

I might sell Breakdown and get this guy instead....My Nemmy needs a friend.

I had no real desire to own the original Breakdown, and originally got this one if only for the creepy looking Silas molded into his chest.

Both of his modes and his colors are imposing, and the grill really looks nice. And, as expected, Silas looks nice and creepy fused into his new body. The only pain was applying his tiny headlight stickers.

All in all, this figure blew me away. If you have some extra funds, get him from TFSource while he's still in stock, or BBTS if they get anymore in.

do you mean the main front headlight stickers? if you leave him transformed first and apply them it is easier since the grill will get in the way in vehicle mode.

I just wish he didn't have that front grill. I really wanted Breakdown, didn't get him before he sold out, and settled for this. Now looking at the photos, this version is in fact mostly better...except for the grill. And even then only in robot mode.

Is the Silas chest detail in any of these pics? I must be blind if it is, or is it inside the hood somewhere?
