    The best version of Spike and Daniel period. The exo suit looks good, But I don't think a human could really fit. Not totally the designers fault (source). Of course, I thought it was a tad smaller in scale. Edit: it really should be smaller. Daniels elbow should end up a little past the slinky arm. Otherwise it is extremely accurate.

    I'm not crazy about CMs product but this is too cool to pass up. The sculpts look awesome so far.

    I think they aimed to scale it so that Daniel piloting it in car mode was accurate to the movie; they had to make the suit mode larger to accommodate the transformation.

    I agree, though, that the figures all look great. I would have liked some elbow articulation, but otherwise I like it.

    Wish it was a bit smaller so it scaled better with MP Rodimus, but it looks pretty awesome!

    I'll get these if they scale well with MP-9.

    Hopefully, they scale okay with MP-1, binaltechs, and MP-9 as Hot Rod (as opposed to Rodimus Prime; who should be much bigger IMO).

    I've skipped all this companies stuff so far (IIRC, due to cost), but might have to get these.

    The fact that they made the top part of the torso removable so that you could put a 'driving' mode version of Spike and Daniel in it is genius. Too bad the photographer could use some tips about not using a white pattern backdrop to take photos of white figures. Its making my eyes hurt.

    How big is this? I'm wondering if it would work with MP-09 too.

    I actually want one of these I think its pretty cool looking, it could do without the kid though, I would just use Spike with it. Daniel would be a chew toy for my dog.. I Could NEVER stand that kid, the D on his chest must stand for Dumbass.. I know I will not be able to buy one though, im sure this will be over 100$ like most 3rd party stuff. It is cool but not that cool

    Ten years ago, I probably would have bought these things. But today, they do absolutely nothing for me. Thanks - but no thanks.
