on the manual,there wrote "changing to base",not "changing to satellite",and it's a hyper mode.

and the robot hyper mode is the solar panels on his back,go my gallery and look the 3rd pic.

this thread has also the link http://www.TFans.com/index.php?showtopic=4281

 

what are the odds?

 

:P

Gonna merge them :)

Lookin good. My only gripe is that his gun arm doesnt have an elbow joint.

Now all I need for my personal fan fic is a decent NEW mold for Grimlock.

:thumb

man, just TF him into the gun and all will be well in the world! *unofficial gun mode seen some time ago*

he's ok. gotta find the custom gun transformation pics!!

probably leave him in satellite mode most of the time

don't like tank mode or big gun

while i'm in a complaining mode:

1)why do so many energons have heads showing in alt modes? it's

like the curse of armada non-articulation!!

2)why does takara/hasbro put in stupid sound just to make money?

take out the sound and lower the price!!

The GOOD

1. Best color scheme I've seen in a while.

2. Best Robot mode

The BAD

1. Head Visable (but not sooo bad)

2. Left gun arm has sacrificed articulation for gimmicks (BAH!)

CONCLUSION

Almost perfect

Kids love sounds/lights so while it is there to kick up the price, I think it's also playing to the target audience.

 

The head thing kind of bothers me too. Would it really be so hard to create some kind of extra panel/space to hide them?

lol children, birds and some women are fascinated by bright shiny objects. lol I know from experience on all 3.

 

He's a good G1 homage.... dunno if he's gonna make it to my shelves though.... have to see more and see him in person I guess
