    I like how we learned about this a short while ago, and already there is a review.

    I wish more 3P & KO were this fast.

    BMB tends to keep quiet until their stuff is almost ready to go. I appreciate it too! It’s cool to see prototypes and stuff but waiting a year or more for things sometimes gets tedious, especially if there are months or even years without any new images or reviews or whatever.

    It’s the right way to do it as far as I’m concerned.

    To be fair when companies reveal things early the community can put input into improving the figure. Tho that requires companies that listen to fans and those are getting more scarce.

    Ah sorry, should've specified that's his vehicle mode length, not robot mode height!

    Robot mode he's 1/28 scale (though usually people aren't as strict with that scale)

    Hoping he looks ok! At least next to Ratchet he'll be in scale

    I guess that he will have to be in altmode with my BC-01 prime and the MPM cars..

    I thought the mpm cars were 1/28 scale, so they'd scale with his robot mode, but not vehicle mode

    I'm seeing most scale charts/info putting sentinel at 35 feet to Optimus' 28 so I thiiiiiiink this guy will fit in just fine with my UT Challenger. He comes up to about where he needs to in comparison. I was kinda worried he'd be WAY too big but I never realized sentinel had some height on Optimus

    Feelin good!

    Is this guy listing on US retailers?

    Oh really? I thought Sentinel was in the 30-32ft range? Maybe I'm misremembering.

    As far as I'm aware we never got official scale charts from DOTM, the most reliable one though is Red Goblin's that does indeed put Sentinel at 30ft, yes he looks to be the same height as the 35ft Megatron when they talk but he starts on a higher balcony and the CGI is notorious for cheating.

    Yeah, Prime Megatron and Sentinel were all the same height in DOTM, despite what other scale charts may say.

    Really only times Megatron was even that much bigger than Prime was before their fight in 07. Before it Megatron was taller, but during it (which you can see behind Blackout as we've still yet to get a proper unobstructed 1v1 Optimus Megatron fight from the movies) they're the same height as one another.

    Megatron and Sentinel have bigger alt modes than Prime, it's only natural that they are bigger / taller than him.

    Except in the films they never were taller than Prime. Megatron pulls a G1 Motormaster and is the same size as Prime while transforming from both the cab and the trailer.

    The last pic is to compare their chest heights cause Prime and Sentinel have very little screen time together before Sentinel's betrayal (which Prime was late for cause he wanted bagels).

    Also government lady's just ignoring Prime talking to her, how rude.

    Yeah, like they say, I see it run the gamut from 30-35 but I'm more inclined to see him as larger given his larger alt mode (and I want to convince myself that I need this toy xD)

    if my measurements are correct, he is 1:32.8 in scale (11.83 meters long, 3.35 wide and 3.60 high scaled down to 36 cm) granted he is to small to really scale with the mpm's he IS big.. so he should look at least decent next to the others..

    Decided to purchase after I saw the preview.
    BMB is still greedy, and I am not sure how many Products I can afford if they keep raising their Prices.

    I was only able to Purchase my 2 Units, because I used 70$ ShowZ Points, and at the same time sold something at Ebay for 55$. Otherwise I would not have spend that 240$ for 2 Units.

    But the Figure itself seems to be an absolute Masterpiece so far.

    OK good I thought I was going crazy! Sentinel is definitely shorter.
    They ARE bigger, just not that much TALLER. Mass doesn’t always equal height. Alt modes can compress or expand a lot in Transformers. Sentinel can make up for the mass with his sword and shield, whereas Megatron is just way thicker all around, plus is very hunched over in rotf and dotm.

    Look at it this way my fellows...an eagle (Stellar's Sea) and a heron (Goliath)...what would you say is BIGGER? The much taller heron that weighs 11lbs or the "shorter" eagle that weighs 17lbs (avg).
    Case in study as well, Spinosaurus Aegypticus at 52' 7tons vs Tyrannosaurus Rex at 43' 9tons.
    Of course, with the Cybertronians, they do not need to match the weight of their vehicular alt modes, but in theory, heavier = larger = stronger.
    Geek mode off. :D
