Just saw the new pics of Not-Silverbolt and I'm very satisfied with how he turned out so I feel completely comfortable now committing to the entire Uranus set. I know Hercules had some issues with some of the earlier figures released and was wondering, do the first two Uranus planes released so far suffer from the same thing?
I was planning on waiting for the boxed set so they could knock out any kinks but I'm so excited now that I think I'm going to just buy them piecemeal now.
I think you should wait imo. It'll be cheaper for the set plus any problems with the initial batches will probably be fixed. The Hercules gift set is still available.
I agree, might as well wait for the boxed set. I kind of wish I had for Herc, because there are some good deals now, but who knew that would happen when they started?
Don't worry about the kinks though - TFC were VERY good at providing new parts in the subsequent figures. I'm sure they'd do the same with the Uranus figures, if there were any problems.
I'm surprised Hasbro did not shorten the smokestacks on this one.
Me too. Pleasantly so.
Couple pics I took - I remember mentioning that I had gotten the X-Transbots Glider in a trade a few months back, and I think Corsair, you had asked for pics? Anyway, here are a few:
Slightly mistransformed in this one - the instructions suck!
With some fellow Season 2 Minibots... Man, Warpath really is a striking figure, isn't he? Despite not being as G1 accurate, he kind of puts 'em to shame!
Bottom line, I can't think of a better Powerglide out there, and he's certainly G1 accurate. However, I think iGear might end up doing a better one... guess we'll just have to see, though.
