Re: Is Universe Onslaught a "must have"???

I think that hes a pretty badass figure, good articulation, decent transformation, odd weapons tho i think. i reallly liked the articulation, and he looks uhh badass.in both modes, colour wise of course the takara version is superior but ull be paying alot more, but if u are going to buy one. find one with a fixed soundbox..with correct sirens. He feels really solid and id treat him more like a leader figure, but for a ultra's price, so i guess hes a good buy

Re: Is Universe Onslaught a "must have"???

I got mine from another board member for a great price, and I don't regret it at all. His robot mode is large, bulky-but-not-too-bulky, and very posable. I don't like his weapons much but even without them he looks really nice, either for display or posing. I would highly recommend it, probably my favourite of the 3 Ultras out now.

This figure instantly became one of my top favorites of the entire Classics/Universe line, so yeah, I'd definitely say he's a must have. Cool alt mode, GREAT bot mode, excellent proportions, nice articulation, a nice old school 'blocky' feel... I think this one has it all.

I think he's over rated

He's pretty decent. I just don't like how there are only 2 molds for his limbs. The new deco is a nice touch. I can't believe Unicron is the same thing.

I think exoskeleton is talking about the Ultra Class Onslaught...

Anyway, I bought him and he is nothing memorable. I usually forget about him in my whole collection. He has good articulations but his knees has a huge hole, a cage in one of his legs that always pop out and the siren problem everyone has.

At least I got it for free as a gift from my brother.

I will be more than happy if Powerglide's size could "switch" the Galvatron one. I didn't know OnSlaught is going to have another version. I already like it when I see the concept art. But I might not want to pay the premium price of the Henkei version. Just it seems to miss a Canon or rocket on his hand... Or well, can always add one badass weapon for him.

Ultra class Onslaught is a great figure...

I've only one problem however, the chest piece on mine does not click in properly and remains loose 90% of the time...

Otherwise one of my top 3 in the universe line
