Excerpt from Blog: How long have we been waiting for an official G1 Quintesson toy? The time seems immeasurable…

… well, not really. Thirty four years. 34 damn years since Transformer fans first saw those 5-faced tentacles monstrosities passing judgement on Lithone and Cybertronian alike, having their victims thrown into the Sharkticon tank. And we've wanted a toy ever since!

But now we finally have what we have been waiting for – and it even transforms! Geewunners put your drool-bibs on as we look at the Earthrise Quintesson Judge.

We've been waiting 34 years, and it could be some more months for me till my order via Little Toy Company arrives. Having said that, in my youth I never really expected these to exist anyway, so this is a bonus. I'd have accepted the Quintesson as an Action Master packaged with, say, Slitherfang to justify it as a Transformer. The prison mode is a bit random but does nothing to detract from the character mode, and the gimmick is a blast. Can you fold the faces back down once you've removed the prison cell? If so then it is a cute accessory to stand alongside the mostly intact figure. Either way, I'm looking forward to this bonkers toy.
