Nice. A Leader class toy that seems to be slightly smaller than the previous Voyager incarnation of the character and which has assembly issues out of the box. That'll get them flying off shelves!

Yeah. Any lingering temptation gone out the window. Not paying £55 for something not put together properly.

Nice to see text reviews! Hope they start making a bit more of a comeback.
I'm increasingly sold on Cyb Starscream. Something about him looks kind of Siege-ish, I think he'd look pretty good with some battle damage.

Something about him looks kind of Siege-ish, I think he'd look pretty good with some battle damage. As long as it's an option on a later version and not on the first |

I loved the Siege battle damage. It was dropped too soon!

The dry-brushing on the deluxes, e.g. Sideswipe's shins was a nice touch that made the figures unique - I remember standing in Smyths (or was it still TRU at the time?) deciding which one to buy based on that. |

I am unreasonably annoyed about this. Gonna need that Squeezeplay.
Also, that's the Chase reuse, yeah?

*A* Chase reuse. Whether it's the only one.... Here's a Cliffjumper Digibash from just the other week |

Cliffjumper looks great as we suspected he would.
Tarantulus looks AMAZING in prototype colours
Squeezeplay is the maddest reuse I've seen in a long time
And Tarn is .... "subtly different"

Tarn is fuggin' pointless.
He is the most pointless repaint since Wreck n Rule Bulkhead.
Of all the things they could have put in this set, they chose that?
I never would have seen a Squeezeplay out of Mindwipe. Guess the Twinferno mold really is dead. Kinda glad they moved on, Fangry is barely functional.
Now lets get Horri-bull from Skullcruncher!
Gods, Tarantulas is giving me the willies. I don't know if i can own that. It's hitting the same fear vein as solefuges do.
Cliffjumper... exists. Don't like the show, had no attachment to the character, and never liked the design.

It's "an interesting choice" I'm not sure I heard any Cyberverse fans demanding it..... Having said that I quite like it, even though the differences are very subtle I can think of Voyagers I'd rather have. Nacelle from Earthrise Thrust, Armada Thrust from Jhiaxus, a Nemesis Prime Earthrise Op, Armada Thudercracker, Armada Skywarp. I'm sure I'll think of a few more as I turn the PC off! |

Browning is brown/gold and does not grow beyond the size of a human's pistol, he's never held by Squeezeplay in robot mode, so... no.  Martin |

And if it was a mold choice, needing to use that mold a fourth time, then why not repaint it (preferably the bludgeon version) into Blastwave? Like you said, who's asking for a nearly identical same character repaint of a fairly recent shelfwarmer? It's Bulkhead, all over again. |

Squeezeplay looks great, but just as unobtainable as Fangry so *shrugs* It'll be on Pulse and IDToys at 2pm. So not as unobtainable as Fangry |

It's unobtainable in ' I really don't want the other three'
