    not sold yet but he's a step or two above his former toy. i guess that's not saying much though.

    Glad the claw folds away, though I'm happy with my Legends and HA Barricades.

    We can only hope. Although it's entirely likely Hasbro's just capitalizing on a popular character.

    This new Barricade is a big jump from the previous 2 deluxes, I like it!

    He's FAR better than the other deluxes of the DOTM line so far. However, I think that he may be a leetle bit mis-transformed. I kind of like the first movie's Barricade's robot mode more because in this one he has too much grey, and not enough white which provides a nice contrast. For once, the MechTech stuff actually doesn't look out of place. I have high hopes for this deluxe!

    Well, I was looking forward to this figure at first, but now no thank you.

    The face looks distorted, and the body just doesnt seem right. I'll stick with the very first Barricade figure I think

    Much better than the 1st movie Barricade, good for peeps that didn't fancy getting the HA I guess!

    He just looks cheap and unappealing. Lucky for me I got 47 barricade in the summer freebie thing and have no need of him.

    I'll wait for clearer pictures with the actual transformation before I make my final judgement.

    I think it's teh angle of the toy that makes the head look stupid. Is it me or does it look like his fingers have articulation?

    I just noticed, it looks like he might have jointed fingers. That's always cool to see on a Deluxe.

    that stomach/waist looks a little weird, but other than that, this looks like a great fig. the gun is a nice touch, and i like how, even in car mode, the bumper thing on the front of the car has that menacing angle to it...

    Hmm it's interesting he has kind of a modifed look here. He has change hood his spolier is white. Head looks kind of funny. Like the gun though. Not sure I really like my premium Barricade. But I will wait till I see more.

    Is it just me or does his head look quite thick? And what the hell is wrong with his legs?

    Glad to see both hands though, and a MechTech pistol too.

    Not too bad. Better than the last Dlx Barricade. I'll prolly just stick with the HA version, wonky hips and all.

    Interesting, some areas definitely improved over the original toy in terms of screen accuracy and just general design. Face looks like it's been smacked with a comedy frying pan tho, that's very weird. Hopefully we'll get some more detailed pics soon.
