I really like this figure,I'm just worried about the soft rubber head.

Lick it to keep it moist.

I really want one of these. Beast mode looks good, robot mode also looks good. And its a girl!

Got mine today And I quite like it. Pretty unimpressive transformation and loose legs let her down. I wonder why her dragon head is all rubber? that seems a stranger idea.

I would have liked her shoulder guards to have been attached with ball joints, as the angle required for them to sit over the arms in robot mode is a little bit and I also wished the head came out of the neck cavity a bit more than it does.

Despite all that though I like the look of the robot mode and REALLY like her Dragon mode. I am going to make her a Gargoyle. the instructions are incredibly useless, even going to the point of skipping a step required for her back and they are made even worse by them using very grey prototype that manages to blur any definition between parts. On the second part pf step three I had trouble seeing what I was looking at.

Instructions are getting more and more ridiculous as we go on. Massive poster sheet as well. I am also curious why a new-born clone has loyalty feelings to another clone.

I do like the fact that she is armed with a Half-Life Gravity gun!

She will be my Gordon Freeman!

going to pop in some action poses. Well, one is a standing pose...



The tail claw/gravity gun works really well with smaller figures. I wonder if the brave knight can take down THIS dragon and save the maiden?
