    My favorite look on him is his upper torso. Magnificent

    TFs-Express just marked mine as 'awaiting dispatch', but I'm having it sent via Omegalock and picking up Quint Prosecutor on the way

    Kind of surprised we haven't got a video review, but 'Im guessing besides Wotafa the guys who have put up early reviews of TB and the trains, either passed or didn't get theirs yet.

    The mall exclusive aspect perhaps limits that quicker availability. Here’s hoping someone does do a review quickly

    My Phoenix has been up for sale for more than a year. Nuts.

    Walmart Greeblefire is something my 8 year old plays with.


    This looks incredible!

    Am I crazy or does anyone else think this thing looks way too blocky? I’d say prefer the Phoenix bot mode, but his chest is too wide. I probably like the Newage bot mode best, but he’s obviously not MP scale… That being said, I love the gimmicks (storage for all the faces, mini auto bots, gun storage beneath him in alt mode).

    Is it just me, or does this view look really gappy? Or is there just something mistransformed?

    The underside does look a bit gappy for sure. Not the cleanest look.

    I know they send them out by order received, but I noticed there were certain people that had reviews up the next day, generally you can tell the excitement for a release by the number of japanese reviews be it video or online reviews. Just odd I guess as this looks to be very well received similar to the trains. Like I mentioned earlier they either passed or just haven't gotten theirs yet.

    Well I expect Sylvester Stallone to be stronger than Ryan Stiles or Stephen Merhcant.

    MP of the year easily.

    Hard to see another release beating this.



    Unless Galvy/Roddy happen.

    This looks good, but is it back to original Takara build materials. The 2nd issue is, is that it's five years to late, while this piece looks good, is it worth it for those with FT Phoenix? I may get one after reviews and if a great price.
