    Transformation is a bit confusing at first due to the poor instruction and tight joints on some parts but after you go through it once it's not so bad. Some parts of the transformation are not exactly intuitive so there is a bit of a learning curve. The landing skid freaked me out at first as the hinge was poorly toleranced (at least on my copy) so I had to be extremely careful unfolding it to prevent any breakage. It felt like either the hinge or the diecast skid will break. Other than that, it's a gorgeous piece. The finish is comparable to some high-end statues and the articulation is pretty good (not perfect, but good enough).

    I transformed it back to robot mode after taking those pictures. I'll get it back to jet mode later today to take some pics.

    The sword definitely sticks out worse than the shield does.

    He towers the challenger itself so he is oversized in his own scale

    I have so many damn versions of this great TLK Megatron (even stupidly bought the OEM voyager at full price on first release) including 2 KO OS Rendsora figures. Not crazy about the rather plain looking expression of the face option and his eyes need to be angrier, maybe I'll do some mods if I ever get him, sounds like waiting for the corona virus situation to (hopefully) get resolved would be a good idea before I spend the money on this version.

    I know that, I'm asking to see him side by side with either ROTF Optimus or MPM Megatron. I know he's taller than he should be, but up to a certain height I'm not bothered by that.

    I really wish there was a metallic fleck orange or bronze on the cockpit. Some kind of paint break up there, he looks unfinished to me.
    This might be the first figure where I feel I absolutely have to learn how to put a wash or weathering onto. He needs more highlights across the sculpt.

    I had no interest in getting Challenger until I got Dragoon. I wish you luck in getting the head.

    Great pic!
    They look amazing. The colors are vibrant, the scale works perfectly. I love UT Bayformers. Every release raises the bar higher.
    I just wish there were more per year.

    Did you get the display base?

    Yeah, I have the base, but prefer displaying without it because I think they scale beautifully all standing on the shelf together.

    I'll probably sell the base as I have no desire/room to complete the Driller.
