This is your penance for all of those daring ledge shots!

 

Appreciate your warning about this kneecaps!

 

Yeah, I'm upset, but it's probably the least essential piece that could have broken. His kneecaps are still plenty spiky (along with the rest of him) and the back piece goes on perfectly now, ironically.

NEVARRRRR!

Honestly now I'm worried I'm doing something wrong when transforming. The first time went so smoothly, but now it was really hard for some reason.

 

What part is this in robot mode

 

The tip of one of the knee spikes.

Anyway... put M. Wrath through the paces, took a few pictures... and my opinion is basically unchanged. M. Wrath is a good figure that scales better with the Studio Series line than the actual Studio Series Grimlock, and at $150 I'd recommend him to anyone (even if they had to dump Little Prime to hit that price point). $200, maybe, he does make a pretty nice display piece in a one-off sort of way. But frankly M. Wrath has enough minor flaws that I just can't say he was worth the $250 price tag. I know people in this thread are adverse to the price discussion, but like it or not it's a factor. I mean, M. Wrath is a better figure than the MPM Starscream I picked up last weekend, but I feel better about that purchase than I do this one. I think everyone knows their own tastes, and if you feel certain that you want this figure and don't mind the price then by all means get one. It's definitely good. But if you're on the fence I don't think having him in-hand is going to change your opinion of the figure's overall worth.

 

That's a sound statement sir, I won't categorize it as an "argument" because none is needed. A purely factual comment I do believe this is.  

 

Uh the knee cap

 

This figure is fantastic! I haven’t messed around with it much at this point, but have a question about the legs. Should they be this far apart from each other? I don’t know how to get them closer as at the hips his chest in robot mode piece gets in the way.

 

Seems about right and similar/same to all over pics and reviews. With the caveat that you might be able to get the feet closer the more vertical you pose the figure?

 

Yes unfortunately the robot chest doesn't compress any farther so that's the width of the dino legs although yours could be turned inwards a little bit more on the right.

 

Lord help me, I just bought this haha. I blame all of you!!! The praises and pics and the design just combined to make it too irresistible.

 

Emgo's review

 

Oh sweet 8 pound 6 ounce baby jesus! I haven't been this excited about a figure since Dragoon! Just ticks all my boxes, I love the look of the transformation as well with lots of well thought out tabs, I love a good tabbing (not sacrificing the playability for the sculpt). Can't wait to get mine in a few weeks, fingers crossed.

I do really like Emgo's reviews for figures I'm interested in because he puts the time in to transform the other figures as well for his comparisons and goes about the transformations in a methodical way, with his warnings for things to look out for. And the skit at the end was pretty classic.

 

What I like about him is that he wouldn't make a figure look bad when it doesn't.

I think the amount of weight in this figure will be detrimental to itself, but I really hope that won't be the case and the joints will last for a long period of time. Enjoy the figure!  

 

Got this guy in yesterday. I’d have no problem saying good things about him but came here to bolster Toy Dojo. Decided to order it Thursday night and he was delivered (free) 4 days later. Props to those guys down in TX.

 

To those that have it, csn you tell methe areas that feel like they might be diecast? Thsnks!

 

Mostly the robot feet and the mace head parts (which end up on the back in dino mode).
