Or a Transformers version of Iron Man... Oh wait, we're getting one in August.

I can see why. He didn't really do a satisfactory design job with the MP03 and the THS-02 Prime.

I find MP-03 superior to all the valks released to this date. Cleaner, better transformation, more solid. THS-02 is pretty sweet too.

What is it? Does it transform?

Perfect transformation is totaly un-important to me, i only display my toys before or after transformation, never during.

Tell that to a Transformers fan for fun. If you design something to transform, make it transformable, not parts-formable.

You are soooooooooo right my friend. And I totally agree with you on the "stick" for posing for the CM's. What a piece of junk. At least the MH's have a cool stand.

Mine is displayed without the stick.

Cool, I think I'm going to get the blue version. Eventually. Someday. If I can afford it.

Do you think this one is better than the 1/48 version?

I've never seen the show but the "transformable" PVC toys are really bad.

Same league as Iron Gear (although Iron Gear has more bulk).

Will it be possible to purchase the MP Voltron stand by itself?

Got my Godmars the other day. 200% awesome. My next 2 SOC purchases will be Raideen (not sure about which version yet) and Daimos.

There's a Voyager Wreck-Gar listed in TRU's system I think. It was on tfw2005.com not so long ago.

And what we see from Animate is just the tip of the iceberg... Tons of great figures to come: Blitzwing, Soundwave, Wreck-Gar, Sentinel Prime, Ultra Magnus, Oil Slick, Waspinator, Jazz, etc. It's going to be crazy in the next few years!

Got Energon Jetfire from eBay today ... he's a disappointing mold. I knew the shuttle mode was kind of hokey, but had thought the robot mode would be the better of the two. Now I know better. He's not too poseable and feels really bulky.

I thought the Overcast/Energon Ironhide (green version) combo looked pretty good...

The Animated figures you see on Ebay are just production rejects. If you inspect them closely, most of them show tiny scratches or paint defects. I got a few myself.

So the MH is not so superior after all... Glad I got the CM's version.

Can it be moved to the proper section?

Can be loose or MIB, as long as it's complete. PM with a price if you have one for sale.

Looks cool, I want that toy.

I was wondering... How come so many different competing companies are allowed to produce the same toy? That would be like having 4-5 companies producing Transformers. At least Hasbro and TakaraTomy work together... I just find it odd.

I don't like the alternate ending. Too... Hollywood-esque. In a very bad way. Mutants in love. Yeah, right.

K, I guess you're right by "loaded" if you mean the chest piece and exhausts and "very sleek" by the FOUR landing gears that don't retract or aren't removable

Know your Gobots.

You Mean this guy right?

He's called Road Ranger! I don't have one to sell but you should check ebay. You should also look for Leader 1. He's an awesome decepticon

Road Ranger is a good Gobot. Simple but clever transformation. And Leader-1 is better than all the G1 seekers if you ask me. Loaded with die-cast, no add-on parts, simple but effective transformation and very sleek jet mode.

How much did you pay for yours?

CollectionDX has a review of the CMS Ride Armor... says pretty much everything I expected (too small, fidgety parts, ugly finish, terrible parts fit)...

The reviewer did a terrible job this time around. He's not giving the toy any respect, he's just throwing it around as if it was a dollar store toy. That's NOT how one should review such a toy (or any toy). His other reviews are usually fine though.
