    Not like they would do anything to you. Hasbro doesn’t know who you are and isn’t sending out some secret agents out to get you.

    i have to agree, if hasbro or paramount really wanted this picture wiped from the internet, they would most likely contact folks directly to take it down or just start DMCA takedowns

    Then the movie is going to fail, and it will be the end of the transformers franchise with the game being our last hope.

    It's just a "what if" kind of thing.

    So how’s this figure? This and Masterpiece Blackoit are one of the few movie designs that appeal to me. I don’t have the others. It’s just that these are the types that I would like to display in my collection. Blackout is superb

    A mixed bag to be honest

    Truck mode is too long because he barely transforms from the waist down, missing gas tanks.

    The gap on the nose/ canister is pretty big but made even more apparent as the middle hinge goes through it is clear so its basically highlighting how big the hole is. Moreover, exposed hands at the back of the cab is not a great look.

    Head is far too small in relation to the rest of the figure and the neck joint loves to pop off from play and transformation due to a combination of small socket, the neck hair (?) piece colliding with pretty much nearly everything and how the socket is actually facing the front.

    There's also reports of hairline cracks at the clear plastic but it hasn't happened on my copy yet.

    Transformation is fun, the megaman cannon forming part of the trailer back is clever, Freezer intergration is competent and the design in general is cool.

    Its still not the worst SS leader toy and I still enjoy him out there but for 55 bucks? Aw hell nah.

    I love mine to bits but its going to depend how much you like the design and how much you value playing with your figures as opposed to just purchase, pose once, transform back and forth once, onto the shelf he goes as some people do. Scourge has been an excellent desk toy for me and is incredibly photogenic. I personally think that he's just about worth the leader price but its a tough sell for some to be sure. I practically hyperfixated on Scourge while waiting for my pre-order to come so that probably helped my bias a lot.

    I'd say he's downright incredible, one of the best studio series figures imo. And I do not think that the head is too small compared to the rest of the figure.

    I do not have the same problem that the other people have mentioned with the neck popping off, it may be an isolated issue if yours pops off.
