I just received my set, courtesy of KillingSpoon, today and I've got to say they are far and beyond the Shadow Warrior/Frenzy/Rumble mold in every way!
I intend on doing a bit of a review of them later in the week, along with some more photos but in the mean time, here are some initial thoughts:
  • Colour Scheme/Paint Apps are brilliant.
  • Accessory count is crazy!
  • Well thought out and executed accessories.
  • Figure construction and execution is superb.
  • Figure articulation and poseability is insane!
  • Transformation and parts integration is truly ingenious.


Their size I'm perfectly fine with because even at this size, they out-do quite a few official deluxe figures and set a damn high standard for any future 3rd party reflector and/or 3rd party figures of this size.
The plastic quality is quite acceptable to me, but I can see where some are a little irked by it but at any rate, one has to admit that Perfect Effect have come a hell of along way.

I really hope to see some more varied Alt mode designs come from PE, which are stand alone figures and not accessories for other figures as SFX - Scouting Force X clearly demonstrates PE's ability to pull this sort of thing off.
