    The robot looks nice, but the trailer looks like an upsized version of the G1 toy. Not what I would expect from "Masterpiece." :/ I suppose you could say the same thing with MP Convoy's trailer too... but of course, I skipped that toy. But I do think Convoy's trailer was an improvement, like with the trailer doors.

    Of course the difference here is that Rodimus Convoy _needs_ his trailer to go to alt mode. But I guess making the trailer simpler means they can invest more money on the robot, which makes sense. So here's hoping the robot component is good.

    I don't think that the robot is that complex. To me it looks as if it has a similar transformation sequence to the G1 toy but somewhat improved like MP Grimlock.

    They always do that when a new toy is revealed or rumoured, just to get the early/desperate buyers who want to be sure to get one. Apparently it is even listed as being an estimated price, so they don't even have any official details, they are just guessing to secure customers before other online stores.

    *Strokes chin* Without anything else to compare to it's difficult say, but he looks real small.

    I thought the pic of the trailer looked like it had some size to it. There is a figure stand behind the trailer which I thought gave you some idea of size

    We don't know the size of the figure stand so it's hard to use it as a control unless you are familiar with it.

    Well I wouldn't think that it would hold anything less than a 3 3/4" figure, say like G.I.Joe action figures unless you know of smaller stands for smaller figures

    I'll await more photos.

    Going for it is that it doesn't look that big, which is a good thing to me. What we can see of the robot mode looks nice aswell.

    Going against it is that the car mode looks very snub nosed.
