    I could stand to see more variety in the spires around his equator.

    Looks amazing, but if they don't have an installment plan... and they want the money around the same time as MP Prime 3.0 releases... I am out.

    Well, if it's like any other "If over XX$ USD, Free Shipping!" but they charge state and county sales tax so you're still eating an 8% charge which would be the equivalent of a regular 3-5 day shipping fee.

    At least it's small enough to fit on the top of a Fed-Ex truck and you don't have to worry about freight delivery costs and having to negotiate a 40 foot trailer and semi in and out of your driveway.

    I think one factor that made the Barge successful was that no iteration of it had ever been made, whereas here you have several, albeit inferior, versions of Unicron. I'm passing on this because I'm happy with my Armada version.

    The way the maw works is the most impressive thing to me.

    Why are so many people asking for payment plans? That's what credit cards are for.

    This is an easy pass for me, it is an awesome looking figure that has a lot of features, I can think of so many Positives, the one Negative that matters most, dictates my decision.

    Congratulations Haslab you've done a good job; but your existence is relying on the deep pockets of a few, instead of the shallow pockets of the many.

    looks cool and is tempting but that's statue pricing there. Have to say though it is a much better deal than the new version of optimus coming out (also looks cool but pricing at hastak for gone off a cliff there for MP's). Would have been more tempting at the jabbas sail barge price. There will be a lot less people looking for this in aftermarket so who knows what could happen there. Other than the panels hanging off legs it does look good.

    It sometimes helps, but not often.

    I love how I keep seeing comments that this is "only" 3 inches taller, completely ignoring the 19 lbs this weighs. This guy has twice the mass of any titan figure.

    Not really. Credit Cards are for banks to make money by charging interest.

    Look, the good news is that you can probably make that $600 back after you sue Hasbro for your kid poking out his eye on one of those sharp spikes.
