Hey all

Really want one of this set but was wondering if anyone here can let me know how good this thing really is before I get the set.

Any QC issue? Bad, good?

He is amazing, no issues with it at all. But you have to be sure cause he is not cheap.

It is an amazing figure but there are a lot of tolerance issues. I have had a peg snap because it was too tight and some other minor nitpicks

i would make sure you get ver2 of blast off as ver1 does not have ratchets.

all in all, there are a few issues but the end result is tremendous, he looks epic! just dont expect it to be perfect with QC.

He is brilliant and looks very intimidating on the MP shelf

I still have my Warbotron in the boxes... I just dont have the room to display him yet...

I am waiting for IKEA to open in Canberra to finally get some more display cases.

Try Chimungmung, probably cheapest at the moment

I really like the look of him but I am holding out in hope that TFC does a version of him instead. I just love the way those guys do combiners so hoping they knock him and Menasor out one day.

I prefer a little more G1 accuracy if possible so I would have preferred blast off facing the other way as a limb and vortex being the other way around.

I came very close to getting this guy, the only thing stopping me was the QC issues.
