    How do the Revoltech figures compare in size to the Classics/Universe 2.0?

    I am considering purchasing the Wonder Fest Shockwave model, which says it's on scale with Revoltech, but before I dropped $160 I wanted to make certain he's not going to look silly with the Classic/Universe Decepticons.

    Thanks!
    Adam

    Don't do it. They're very small.

    They are about the size of Classics Bumblebee.

    If you want a Classics Shockwave, get the Energon Shockblast figure. He'll fit in nicely and won't cost you $160.

    Awesome. Thanks for the feedback (and saving me $160 lol). Glad I asked before I spent.

    Yeah, all (or at least most) Revoltech figures go around 4.5 to 5in. tall. They're nice and uber-poseable, but they miss the best part of Transformers... transforming. If I could find them for cheaper, I might be tempted to buy a couple to display around my desk or something, but other than that? Nah. And yeah, the only TFs I can think of where they might fit in with are Titaniums. But that's still a maybe. It's 5:30am and I haven't slept yet too.

    About the only revoltech that works scale-wise is hot rod with titanium Rodimus.

    I love Revoltech. I've got Megs, Prime and Starscream on my desk. They are so posable. They are the only part of my collection on my desk. The rest are on shelves.

    Thanks again everyone for the feedback and pictures. I can now pick up something else with the money I was going to use for Shockwave :D
