Got him and transformed him into robot mode. My initial thoughts are wow. Transformation conplexity is very similar to Sidswipe but obviously completely different. He looks awesome. Perfect iteration of G1 Prowl. Posability is similar to SS but is a little limited in the legs (I couldn't get him down on one knee for a shooting pose). But he makes up for this with his ankle articulation.
The bad: Paint apps. Very similar issues to SS/RA/TT. Not so much the paint colours, but the application. I have a few spots on the car panels and one side of his head is only half painted. Lucky that the plastic and paint are a pretty close match so its not really that noticeable.
Overall, for a MP that when first announced only elicited a 'meh' from me, I am a MASSIVE fan. Can't wait for Smokescreen, my favourite of the 3.
I'll post up some pics later tonight. :)
No no no no no no .... argh. Saved a coin or two by pre-ordering Prowl & Streak in the one transaction. Really regretting the decision. :( Looks like I'll have to appreciate Prowl from the posted photos. Keep 'em coming!
I'm in the same boat man, I ordered prowl and bluestreak together to save maybe $10. But at least I should get 2 coins and 2 launchers. Now another 26 days...:rolleyes:Quote:

I'm still disappointed in the job he did on Sideswipe's shoulders though. Hopefully the Datsun MP mould won't have such issues.
Goki dude, you're the only person I know that's had an issue with the shoulders - to the point where I know we've discussed this before, but I still can't even think of what said issue is! :confused:Quote:
