    I'd be down for an independent party to give Evasion OP some bigger arms and his Striker Cannon, Hound more guns, Dinobots more melee weapons, ect.

    Did that thing pass through a time warp from 2009 because, seriously, that looks like an ROTF Design.

    Need it. NOW.
    That huge wall of guns that is his vehicle mode looks awesome. Kinda wish the proportions were more accurate, but whatever. Still awesome.

    Question!
    I love the fact that Hound comes with lots of weapons, but most of them have the grip in an angle... I was planning to use some of the weapons with other figures, but... Can someone tell if Hound's weapons would look weird with other figures given the grip in an angle? I would love to see some pictures if possible.

    ^Good question. I want to know the same.

    I noticed one pair of guns have handles that flip in and out, so I'm sure that they can be kept with 90° angle like most weapons.

    Me three. I've been anticipating him ever since he was first announced. The arms could have been better (solid plastic on swivels instead of rubber, IMO), but he looks fantastic. Not too much kibble, fairly good proportions, and ALL THOSE WEAPONS!!

    My only real complaint is the plastic plates against his hands, but that's far from a dealbreaker. I'll be getting at least two of him, just for the weapons.

    Yup, at first I was like, that sucks. But then, I was thinking, this dude is so weaponed up, those are just his version of brass knuckles.

    Not out in stores.
    You might find him on eBay or something, but on HTS he's not shipping for another month or so IIRC.

    Yeah, apparently they only had a small amount immediately available on Monday. Also I think at least one online retailer has listed that they'll have some available this weekend, although those may have all been preordered by now, and someone mentioned that Hound and Galvatron were starting to show up in some west coast Target stock rooms, so it may be possible for some people to find these at retail this weekend.

    Normally, the soft plastic forearms would've bugged me as well, but seeing them in action in Peaugh's review really sold me on them and how they flex around his arm when you swivel the wrists. It really helps drive home the point that they're supposed to be actual belts of ammo.

    Originally I was only going to get the Dinobots from this line, but I'm now totally sold on Hound... And Leader Prime looks pretty cool as well. Must. Not. Fall. Into. Rabbit hole...

    Do it! Do it! Do it! :D 

    No, seriously. Leader Prime is actually really satisfying. He looks and feels great and he's surprisingly fun to transform.
