Something looks off with it maybe the head can't put my finger in it. But for 80 odd bucks it better come with a bunch of accessories like a sniper rifle

[CBratron]

I like his robot mode. Everything else looks pants.

Expanding on that, the microscope mode is a nice tip of the hat to G1 but looks as authentic as FoC Soundwave's boombox mode.
That tank looks like a red rocklord.

Added photo, wasn't uploading for some reason.

Pass. Its not very exciting.

[liegeprime]

looks ok, but the price is prohibitive

[llamatron]

Robot mode is good (except for the colouring...). Alt modes are garbage and obviously a very low priority for the designer.

[kup]

Not feeling it. The colors and the face throw me off.

[Lord_Zed]

Conflicted, I like the robot mode and don't mind the scope mode, but the colours and the head are a little off putting. The head in particular needs bigger ears and a chin strap.

Still I really do like the articulated skinny robot mode, though maybe the not Magnifcius version is better.......

[Omega Metro]

Robot mode is ok. The rest is a fail. Do you get chips, nuggets and a drink with it?:D

[Bidoofdude]

Not at all what I thought when I clicked on the thread... ;):rolleyes:

[Kazza]

Where's my bucket of chicken at?!!:p;)

[SuspectimusPrime]

Agree with kup about the colours and the face. The other slight downside is the fiddly transformation of the shoulder cannon as seen in Peaugh's not-Magnificus retool (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T_YqnJhNMMU). I prefer the not-Magnificus version.

The official Hasbro Perceptor is significantly better than this.
A guy over at TFW did a pretty cool repaint of this mold with the Hasbro head swapped in for good measure:

Basically what this figure should have been to begin with.

1000 times better. If it looked like this, I would be buying it - No question.

Hmmmmm, I wonder how hard that head swap would be.

Actually I don't think, it's out yet. This must be a repainted black version.

In the thread over at TFW he said he had to modify the ball joint so it's not just a case of popping a head off one figure and onto another figure:

He also made a Soundwave version:
