    That's pretty cool. I don't have a new movie prime yet but I will definitely want this when I do.

    That shield is a little big in it's folded mode.

    Did he even use it deployed in the movie?

    That looks pretty awesome. If I were to get this I'd probably end up giving both the shield and sword to my ROTF Leader Prime.

    Umkay. Iwas honestly expecting shield halves pulling out and extending gun barrel. The sword looks nice though

    These look pretty slick. Will have to consider getting them.

    It looks slick, but when you realize how it's actually supposed to go, it's waaaay off. Can't blame them entirely for this, but it is weird how they did the shield's extended bits. Wouldn't have been that difficult to make it actually extend, rather then have it as fold out bits.

    Sorry OT, but a question about the base figure: are there two versions of this Prime design? Is the new Battle Command OP from Takara compatible with this set?

    The sword looks too big. Was it this big in the movie too? I don't remember.

    LA Battle Command is a Voyager scaled figure.

    Looks great but they're both waaaaay too big, even when FE Prime is using them. A 20% decrease in size would do them a LOT of good. Plus the shield is a bit too flat IMO.

    Overall though it looks like a cool set, and it's great that the sword and shield can store together, as he did that in the movie.

    The sword and shield reminded me of Gundams

    Agreed. This looks like a decent effort, but the rounded shield parts should be able to be flipped perpendicular to the barrels to form a blast shield similar to the motorcycle gun weapon that came with HA Jazz.

    Unfortunately it's for the worst leader sized toys we've gotten in the last 8 years in my opinion.
