I really think that Hasbro is doing well with the Voyager and Leaders scales of this line. Compare the Megatron there to any of the Bandai Pacific Rim Uprising toys that are the same price. (IIRC, those are the only other mass produced/mass retail adult robot toys on US shelves at the moment.) Megatron not only has even more mold detailing, but it actually makes better use of paint applications. And it still transforms.

We get spoiled by 3P offerings, but comparing mass retail to mass retail and these Voyagers are just amazing figures compared to the other guys.

If Hasbro puts this much TLC in the War For Cybertron trilogy, I think we're going to be very happy.

 

Doesn't budget out anymore, and doesn't fit with the line's intended scale goals.

Plus again, there's still that niggling suspicion of a potential Jetfire compatibility gimmick.

 

Point, forgot about the whole scale thing actually being a consideration this time.

I would laugh my ass off if we had that "Unite for the Universe" Jetfire combiner Prime be canceled...only to come back with a vengance a solid decade later.

 

There has GOT to be a better way to arrange the inside of the feet....that plus it looking like his knee cap is on the back of the leg is reaaaaly bothering me. And I’m totally digging it otherwise.

 

That cowl in the back of his leg is supposed to be there. Problem is, the one on the front side is undersized and unpainted.

 

Yea I see on all the CG models that it’s there, the thing is, from the knee down area, front and back is much bulkier. It looks less like a backwards kneecap and more like an upper calf. On the figure it just looks like it needs to spin around, from the lack of enough knees dropping down in the front. But those feet...
