    I can see the appeal, but it's not for me.

    I'd rather get the oversized MP-10, at least that transforms.

    If it wasn't so expensive, I'd get it.

    350.......DOLLARS?!

    XD Holy shit.
    No real articulation
    Doesn\'t transform
    Is entirely based on shitty Gimmicks.
    I almost choked on my water. 
    There is NO justification in that price.
    There are TONS of better things you can get with that money.

    This seems like their Reaction Figure blown up....

    I think this would be much cooler if they made it really skinny and angular like those old toys they are trying mimic.

    He looks dumb and its perfect. It has that 80s happy presence. Liked he jumped right out of the G1 toon during one of those derpy frames.

    I had my brothers hand me down Shogun Warriors Dragon, shooting stars, axes and all, so I want it.

    But not at that price, no fucking way. I’d rather buy a vintage Dragon!

    Looks like Super7 is overestimated the nostalgia factor with those crazy prices.

    350$

    LOL

    Question: for that price the bottle will be filled or not? I mean, shampoo!

    You hear? So you've based an opinion from hearsay without actually physically handling any of the figures? Seems legit.

    Objectively, whilst their first efforts weren't upto Matty's standards (who themselves weren't perfect either), I personally had no issues but the last 2 waves (Stout and CG Wave 4) were very well recieved. I guess Thundercats will benefit from that learning curve now MOTUC is dead.

    It's also worth noting their customer service has been excellent when I've needed them....like recently in a delivery fuck up.

    It is always entertaining to observe Transformers fans when other toy collecting spheres collide with their franchise.

    Keep posting. :)

    $350.00? :confused: 
    I have spent some serious cash on single figures in this hobby. But I can't justify spending that kind of money for a glorified oversized re-action figure. :thumbdown

    As a collector of jumbo machinders, shogun warriors and chogokin, I’ve always wanted a jumbo cartoon accurate Sunbow/Toei G1 Optimus. Definite buy from me. Hope they do others too.
