He is far from awesome and very flawed... but growing on me in a peculiar way.

Love the LED.
Grrr. Argh.

Cool. I'm getting mine from Toywiz. Does he have any "pistons"? ex:MP-01, MP-03.

He's flawed? :?: What would you say is his biggest flaw? :eyebrow:

Joints are either too tight or loose-fit ball-sockets... top heavy... cannon's too big and thus the overlong gun barrel on his back interferes with posing... forehead's too big... clunky to pose... feet could do with better heel stabilisers... hips are too wide for his legs / legs are too thin for his torso (whichever way you want to look at it...)

To be fair, most of these problems are carry-overs from the original and a byproduct of engineering in an alt mode (which I wouldn't be cut up about him not having... it's not like I see any point in transforming him, even if I had confidence that it wouldn't break the moment I tried). Nowhere near as good as Prime or Starscream, but still a decent show piece. I like, but not as much as the other two.
Grrr. Argh.

That's a darn pity - on the other hand we might be seeing better prices later on...
