    Pumped for this figure. Not sure how I feel about a malleable tail though. I feel like whatever material its made from probably won't hold up over time... Anyway we can get a shot of rattrap standing on his hind legs in rat mode from the side and back?

    Maybe a third party can step in and make a cover for his abdomen to cover the robot parts in beast mode?

    They've been several listed on Ebay for the past couple weeks or so.

    The bendy-posbable tail and ability to stand in beast mode has sold me. I don't care if the robot mode is relatively unremarkable, those two things are worth it alone. Everything else: bonus.

    Is there any way to get the tail less noticeable in bot mode or no?

    So there have....

    However there is simply no way I'm going to pay upwards of $30 for a deluxe.

    ...sweet mercy. Standing-on-his-hind-legs beast mode Rattrap is the best thing of every thing ever. Visible robot mode bits be damned.

    Is his tail the only rubbery bit?

    If you're patient enough, that seller is going to relist it over and over until you get it for less than retail shipped.

    Looks decent.

    As for the tail holding up over time..I dunno, I don't really think in terms of "This $15 investment should last 20 years.." or something. The bendy tail is a pretty cool thing. If it were solid plastic, THAT would suck, and the way it looks now..hell..I think they nailes it..

    Freakin tail looks GROSS..just like a real rats..

    Pretty cool, It would have been a real great thing if they could have had a way to skin the belly so he could do the standing stuff as always seen in the show.

    This stopped being funny after about the fifth time you said it.

    And that's being generous.

    I'm actually quite disappointed with how plain looking he is. Some more paint apps would've broken up that monotony he's wearing proudly. As for the mold itself, I do like it, but the back pack and how the legs form... They don't do it too well for me. Perhaps I'll feel better once he's in hand, but so far, meh.

    Wow, that's...really orange. Why did they do that? The painted prototype was copper. What a strange way to fumble the ball right at the goal line.

    One color doesn't cost any more than another. This is just odd. Hopefully Takara gets it right.

    Voyager, actually. However, the Universe Dinobot from 2010 (or was it 11?) should be taller than this guy. These new Deluxes are rather small compared to figures of just a few years ago.
