Not too shabby. I like it more than I thought now. (which still was a LOT)
Wonder how much this bad boy will cost. Robot mode is quite imposing. I may have to spring for this lol
I don't like the sculpt style of Novalord. There is something off about it.
The face? Not enough crazy in this sculpt.
He's got an angry/troubled look about him, as opposed to the benevolent G1 head sculpt that was originally intended to be a heroic character, or IDW using that benevolent face to characterise him as a psychopath. Everything else looks alright for a G1-update.

Novalord's face is too boring, needs that LSotW style crazy.
The Stunticons are looking very good, as is Laserwave, I worry about the prices for some of these larger toys, not only will they be highly impracticable to display, but every cm larger, makes them more expensive to make and ship. I wonder if there is there a point where they are just too big?
Looking For: Wreckers Saga TPB Collection (with Requiem)
I can understand why the Genesis WFC Omega Supreme is so big, it makes sense from a fictional perspective since it is based on the game model. However to me it seems that Nova Lord was made big for the sake of just making it big to impress people on size alone. They know that there are fans out there who would get 'blown away' just on size.
When you look at it, it doesn't seem much more complex than a deluxe figure, specially when it part transforms. And as you said, the sculpt is plain and boring, lacking in personality despite the details.
