    Cyberverse frustrates me so much. There are so many cool designs and it\'s really the only place we can get non-G1 characters affordably these days, but it\'s all crippled by having no budget whatsoever and having to carry these gimmicks.

    Gah, no new Botbots. I hope they at least confirm we're getting a Series 4.

    Well, at least the Spark Armor figures are showing promise. Which is sad considering they are also an gimmick line. If only the warrior class figures from the main line were as articulated.

    Found the smaller figures with armor (Prowl, Jetfire, Skybyte) & Ark Armor Optimus in Canada a few days ago (at TRU)! So these should be around the corner for USA.

    It looks even cooler up close. I didn't realize he'd be so BIG!

    I bought one about a months or so ago. It's a thing of beauty. Kind of flimsy, hollow plastic, as is expected with a lot of these figures, but it cuts an impressive silhouette on my shelf. Plus it's flipping enormous.

    I like the wrists of that big Grimlock. Never liked how the dinosaur toes ended up in robot mode in the G1 Grim.
    Does that Alpha Trion lack any basic articulation?

    The lack of knees, especially on a big figure like that, kills it for me.

    I agree with you there. As I alluded to in my earlier comment, it’s a great figure to sit on your shelf and look at, but the overall play value is a little disappointing.

    I live in Australia, which seems to be the first country it was released in. Grabbed it 20% off at a toy sale the day after the first sighting was reported. Not sure what the rollout’s been worldwide, sorry.
