Ah. Well, being a 280ZX-TF fan I feel your pain, but I really can't argue with the final product in robot mode. The BT Subaru mold is probably the most G1-accurate of them all (okay, tied for first with Hound). And you know that the Subaru is at a closer price point to the old 280ZX than its m... read more |

Maybe I should have been more clear. Yes Alternators/Binaltechs were what I meant by MP.
However I wanted those characters to be the updated Nissans not Subarus. |

If he's G1-esque and 30cm tall in robot mode... that'd be one big-ass dino. *wonders if they'll go old school with the T-Rex look* faaaattt |

Although, the average toy has shrunk somewhat lately. My guess is that he'll be the same height in robot mode as Optimus/Megs, not sure how that translates to dino mode, but if the Transformation is G1-esque, he'll likely be bulkier, which is probably where the extra cost comes. |

Oh, don't get me wrong. I'll gladly pay $50 more if it's actually in scale with Prime (ie LARGER THAN), but it better weigh at least 20 lbs |

Remember how when this rumor first popped up, everyone was like "THEY BETTER NOT SHRINK GRIMLOCK DOWN OR I'LL BE PISSED!" I guess they didn't shrink him down. Now it's time to pay up |
