Overpriced for something so lame... 'nuff said!
(No, seriously, they're a total rip off... at $3 or $4, I might consider getting them, but otherwise, meh!)

They're like Legends but they can't transform and they cost more! What's not to love??

For a cheaper price I can buy Legends. They're not bad toys, just hideously overpriced.

As others have said, overpriced for what you get.
Maybe wait for a sale.

I don't see the point. They are just basically over priced hotwheels with pictures on the bottom.
I like Transformers toys because they transform and have full representations of the characters, not just their alt modes.
If I wanted die cast cars I would go and find the box of old ones I have laying around somewhere, there's no difference to me really.
Maybe if they were alot cheaper then I might not think they were as bad, but either way they arn't my cup of tea.

afaik RPMs aren't die-cast, just plastic. Which makes them _less_ than Hot Wheels but at twice the price. :/
Hehe, yeah. They're like alt-moded Action Masters (only _without_ a transformable weapon/vehicle!). They're even dearer than Legends!
So many times I see kids/parents looking at the RPMs and they're about to buy them, but when I tell them that they can't transform they're rudely shocked and quickly put the toy back on the peg. If there are Legends in stock they'll start looking at them. (at that stage I assure them that the Legends _can_ transform)

True that the ones out now aren't die-cast, but there are new ones coming out that will be. Scroll down for Soundwave and you can see on the packet on the right it says die-cast. Plus he is part of the "Metal Heroes Series" and would be dumb if he was plastic
