    Very pleased to get him in hand, despite one broken antenna on his head, which I've had to superglue and it's pretty delicate.

    Does make me wish Tarn had a couple more LEDs as Star Saber outshines him in this instance

    It's a small collection compared to some others on here, but the Flame Toys lineup makes up for it :D 

    I think their Optimus (on pre-order) and Megatron will complete the line up just fine

    Looks beautiful. I can’t wait to see more of their figures. Hopefully some Decepticons.

    Drift had a similar situation. I think he even got a second run.

    Star Saber is GO!!

    I’ll probably leave him like this for a while, only get to armor him up for the first time once.

    Quick question for those of you guys who already have him in hand

    What kind of batteries are you using in the Figures legs?

    I just got mine and the instructions call for LR41s but when I put those in it’s almost like they are too small for the compartment And rattle around so there’s no contact and the lights won’t come on.

    Any ideas?

    Mine had battery already installed and worked right out the box, but @Kuma Style mentioned in his review that he had to pull out a bit the connector point in the battery compartments because the battery were loose. Maybe it's the same issue you are experiencing.

    Hey SS Owners, I have a request: can anyone take some photos with Star Saber next to some IDW 3P/ Generation Transformer figures? I want to see how he stacks up in a normy collection
