    Looking forward to this lil fella, although I wish they'd done a TFA Waspinator on the arms for a more cohesive bot mode (four arms in the alt mode merge to make just two arms for bot mode). Still, at least it means the mode we're most familiar with won't be compromised.

    Mine came with Oil pan's instructions. Weird. He's still neat. Although I'm not sure if he's meant to be the little robot bug that Sam Squishes or a Larger Bot as his profile suggests?

    The profiles concerning Movie-verse bots generally don't fit eg Devestator, Though i could be very wrong about that.

    The insect legs are prone to breaking apart during play. I can imagine a lot of kids losing half a leg here and there. :/ The green might bug (no pun intended ) some people who are sticklers for screen accurate colours.

    The movie Insecticons are like the Constructicons - there's heaps of them. Only apparently without as much diversity as the Constructicons. (reference) Perhaps the Insecticons can mass-shift and change from a tiny insect to a giant robot. After all, the G1 Insecticons were able to do that. Or perhaps there was another Insecticon - same size as the one Sam caught - that was fighting Bumblebee at the same time as Ravage. Only that he was probably too small to notice on the screen and Bumblebee probably didn't even notice he was being attacked by an Insecticon (it's kinda like watching a flea try to wrestle and elephant ). After defeating Rampage and Ravage, Bumblebee walked away with Insecticon screaming, "You yellow bastard! Come back here and take what's coming to you. I'll bite your legs off!"

    So did mine. Must have been a error. Perhaps there are a whole bunch of Oil Pans out there with Insecticon's instructions.

    Needs some better articulation. But I like the look of him over all in both modes.

    I got the Takara version in the mail today. He's very dark compared to the Hasbro one. Guess he got a taaan in Japaaaan

    ahem.
    Also, the robot arms are pretty good I think, I've got him to stand up and hold legends figures... hold them hostage that is.

    Yeah, you can pose him in that threatening spider pose where they throw up their front four legs to look bigger. :/ you could curl them up so he looks dead though
