    I've remained pretty much lukewarm on him. His limbs really don't seem to fit his ginormous torso, the wings don't lock into the body very well for me, and I think it's ridiculous that no one at HasTak noticed that the loaded gun can't point straight in vehicle mode. Plus, one of the wing joints on mine had actually been partially stripped by the "tooth" that holds it in place...and that was before I'd even started playing with it. :/

    I've been feeling pretty burned by Classics 2.0 thus far. Sunstreaker is the only one I'm totally satisfied with...Onslaught and Prowl are distant numbers two and three, and I'd like them a whole lot more if they hadn't been ruined by QC failures and engineering defects. I'm going to pay a bit more attention to reviews from now on.

    I'm using this as a template when I do mine, your palette etc. Plus going the dye route was really smart too.

    In other words - YOINK! :D

    I didn't even care about his name or robot mode, I love A10's and that alt mode is freakin awesome! So the bot mode is just pure bonus. Can't wait till the repaint!

    I'm actually pleasantly suprised with him, I didn't have an opinion on him before with no real plans to buy him. The only real reason I got him was because I seen that there was no gallery for him yet and figured I'd shoot it, and if I didn't like him I could just get rid of him in Junkieon, but he's a keeper. Only complaint I have is that I do think he should have been red. Poseablity is good and I didn't have any of the QC issues with him that I've been reading about so he's full of win with me.

    (gallery will be up soon)

    i havent got him yet, probably getting him next week or so...i was also a bit surprised to see him so big and ..not red! but he looks a very cool figure..so i think we should judge this one as a figure on its own, not compared to the G1 figure
