Check it out ..and I think it was very well done! Looks very much like the G1 counterpart. Too bad this set is so expensive as, aside from Bug Bite, I've REALLY liked all of them. I just don't have the $300 to invest in them. NICE SET BOTCON!

Yes this should be in news before it gets ping-ponged around as normal :P Ok got alt prowl this morning and all I can say is .....wow, he truely is that awesome and I am not just saying that to make oyu all the more jealous of me :P His car mode isnt that great, its a run of the mill hatchback which is boring to say the least, chances are that is why they chose it for Prowl, at least it gets a little `jazzed` up with the police decals and lights. It does have a steering mechanism as the others but is not quite so good, the rack is slightly convoluted and doesnt reall do a great deal.

Basically, Raijin Optimus did the rough translation, sent it to me, and I did the fine adjustments, trying to work in a better phrasing and look up the correct names for established terms and stuff. One thing I soon noticed was that the bio heavily paid homage to both G1 Ravage's original tech spec and his Marvel TFU profile. Therefore, I looked up the re…

Starscream's on eBay and the others are up on the official site.. I don't get why they went to the trouble to remold Jazz's head and make him so G1 accurate when no one else was. I was completely expecting a Stepper homage from him, but they could've at least gone with the G2 musical note scheme.
