Very tempted to grab me a piece... Looks awesome!
Plastic quality is very good, light, but does not feel cheap. Not bendy plastic. Kinda like your handling Energon or Armada toy plastic. or those extendable pantry layered shelf plastic you put your canned goods on. The glossy metallic finish of the paints is very good as well, no smudges on mine. NO sharp edges as well. My fingers fit in nicely in holes of the holders.
The spring that keeps both halves of the matrix is kinda stiff on mine which makes it a bit of an effort to keep open for the light up feature. As, you can see the light is really really bright.
The base plate is hollow though but not soft plastic. and the autobot sigil that should be in the front is missing... a good size sticker can help fix that. I think in the original this was a heavy solid base stand, but here its juts a hollow stand plate. It still does the job well and is of same material and good finish as the matrix itself.
Hope that helps.
@CoRDS: are the fingers able to stay in certain poses and not bend down, not too loose are they?
