    The large Optimus looks nice... but not at the current retail price.
    Not a LEGO fan so unless it's around the $40 mark I don't think I'll get it.

    I got sucked into buying these, and am quite happy with my purchase.

    the only one that let me down was the Optimus Prime set, whilst its awesome in truck mode, the amount of parts left over in robot mode means a lot of wastage.

    the 'battle station' or what ever it is that you build withit looks incredibly poor.

    However i managed to pickup a 2nd hand Optimus on ebay for 48 delivered, so i've got a Robot and the truck

    I've just got to finish building Sentinal Prime.

    Will upload photos of them all complete (in robot mode) in the next day or 2.



    Keen for the next release (hoping there is one!)

    oh.. and the mods done to the legs of side swipe are a massive improvement, i think i'll modify mine to be the same, the original way looks stupid and awkward (as seen above)

    should see mirage and jazz :P

    thats probably one of the more dissapointing things about these, if they were a consistant scale it would be fantastic.

    Bee and Sideswipe are the next class up, and Prowl is tinier than Ratchet, but sold at the same price point in Aus, but is a few dollars cheaper internationally.

    How many smackers is a Prowl doods? He's one of my favourite Autobots so I'm thinking of giving his Kreo incarnation a go. This has been a very enjoyable thread to view & read

    Look at the promo pics of Sideswipe on page 1. It's not so much a mod as a different official configuration.

    Must have been "bring your 'special' friend to work" week when they drew up those instructions.

    Hmm now that you mention it...
    The same applies to bumblebee and possibly even starscream.

    they look better in the promo shots
