    I dont understand why these things look like cartoon images photoshopped into a real life picture. It reminds me of Roger Rabbit. Like if they are cardboard cutouts or something. I would have to see them in real life to believe they are three dimensional.

    Looks nice but 750 seams a bit high. $450 to $500 seams more correct compared to other offerings by them.

    And doesn’t come out till 2020? I have no idea what finances will be like that far away. Wish they would do reveals just weeks ahead of release not years.

    I think Starscream looks dope. But all 3 together? They would at LEAST each need new jet flames a piece.

    Yup, they were. :) 

    (Its spelled "their" with the e in front lol)

    This is 26" high, its the larger size statue they make. I think thats why its more then some of their other offerings. Its their "Legendary" offering, of sorts. ;)

    Love the paint scheme, it literally looks like a animation cel come to life. That open mouth one wouldn't irk me so much if he didn't have teeth.
    For all the effort they went through to be G1 accurate they forgot my biggest gripe. G1 bots have no teeth.

    So I like the statue itself and the options he comes with. But that cel shaded look is so poorly executed. It’s overdone to the point of looking like camo not to mention the colors are not bright enough like the cartoon. The other issue is the cel shading is all over the place making no clear idea where a light source would create such an effect. This alone will make this statue line fail quickly.

    I hope the Seekers get Classic scale stautes, too. Their Clasic scale Optimus is at a much more manageable size/price.

    don't like the king look (never have not just on these statues). Do like the statues with the exception of the flames part not done well, but just way overpriced for what they are so going to have to pass. Must be most others are also since they were only making around 750 I think and starscream has been up for sale for several months now and still readily available.
