Looks nicely done. The head fits the character (and is way better than the original for the mold in question) and so the colors. That's the way I would like recolors would be done ALWAYS!

The Transformers Club makes scalping an art form. Charging $50 for a deluxe toy is ridiculous. I am sure they are laughing all the way to the bank. Ain't my money they are putting away. Suckers!

It is definately not a bad job. And, I wouldn't have a problem paying that price since it is a limited edition piece and because of the amount of work which went into retooling it. The only real problem I have with it is that Air Razor is a fembot, and that mold is anything but feminine. It is decidedly masculine in form. IMO, [i]Cybertron[/b[ Skywarp would probably have been a better choice. I was able to take an LOC version of that character and, with only a slight retooling oif the head, and the addition of some square tubing to the upper back and chest, I was able to make a very feminine character out of it. Even then, I could have left the torso alone and just retooled the head and repainted it and get a fem out of the mold. The Delux version wouldn't be any different in that regards. IF they had to use an Energon figure, Energon Starscream would have been a better choice.

Thing is...when Takara make remolds/recolours, like DVD exclusive bots, etc, they dont usually charge so much money for them.
I understand that this is a third party commissioned piece, and as such, the toys are more expensive. I also understand that Hasbro is testing the water still, even at this stage with "limited editions".
I just hope it pulls it's finger out of it's ear and actually starts making affordable exclusives plus helps to take the "con" out of BOTCON, eh?
