    I'm much more tempted with this than the UM colors, but I don't think I'll bite on the price. Oh well.

    He looks fantastic. Pity the 60$ international shipping takes him well over my limit.

    Just got this guy in the mail and I'm not sure if this was the case with Apollo but his instructions are only for the recolored Optimus Prime with no mention of the armor for robot mode or vehicle mode anywhere. I didn't have Apollo so now I'm watching a review to figure it out.

    Wow - the first pictures didn't show how metallic the finish is. Not that I'm complaining; it's actually tasteful how subtle yet reflective it is. Now to find something else at TCP to hit that $150 free shipping quota...

    Yeah, I'm in NM so stuff from Chosen usually gets here wicked quick!

    Does anyone else with theirs have a lot of problems with the joints in the shoulder armor being extremely paint stuck? When I first took the shoulder armor off I couldn't move the triple hinge mechanism and had to stress the red plastic to get it out.

    As much as I love the base mold I’m regretting buying this because of the paint. Everywhere there’s a peg or a hinge, it’s coming off. The blue is applied on red plastic so red shows through. Some of the pegs tolerances just don’t work, and one won’t fit at all on the back. Plus, just handling the figure causes fingered to turn blue.

    hell, there’s even cracked plastic out of the on the shoulder hinge.

    I did. I'm weak. I'M WEAK FOR DA SHINY!!! :drool: :drool:  :oops:  :( 

    I didn't get Apollo either because I was little pulled off from the alt mode, but had PX given him the shiny treatment Delta Magnus received, I would have been all over him.

    The strong lives. The weak buys.
    ;) 

    Apparently RK will also get an allocation, so this is not a TFCon exclusive.
