    It looks like the Macross jets had a ****** baby.

    And what the hell? Why do they all look like they have beaks?

    I'll give it one thing- it's not as bad as Beast Machines Nightscream.

    I'm not quite sure I can tell: does he still have the chicken legs or did they get rid of one segment?

    I hoped they'd be able to better integrate his arms into the jet's hull. Bah....

    all the movie toys look great in vechile mode until you transform them, this is the case more with this one.

    So we sacrifice the nice asthetics of G1 for a reinvention of the line... and this is what they give us. I really don't like that alt mode, that is just sloppy engineering. The bot mode looks much better now that it is in color, but overall, still very disappointing.

    Yeah, this is my least favorite of the movie toys revealed so far. It certainly has its nice points, such as the robot chest and face and the top of the jet mode, but it has way too much undercarriage in its alt mode and its limbs are way too small. I hope they make a bigger version of him that has better proportions.

    I don't see any resemblence to a Macross Valkyrie. Well maybe the YF-21 but then you would've mentioned that.

    It's dissapointing, I'll leave it at that.
