Had this preordered... but cancelled when I saw how tiny it is. $60 for a Deluxe can get right the f out of here. I originally thought it was going to be an upscaled version of that mould. Oh well.

I got mine from the states - ended up being cheaper that way. But i agree with you this is definitely not worth $60. It looked like somebody 3d printed this from their home.

I feel like we got spoiled right out of the gate with Ectotron. That figure is great. Everything else so far has either been tiny and over priced (Gigs here) or just a big ol WTF (Maverick).

So a regular price deluxe is 29.99, and outrageous price. A special edition deluxe sized toy is double that? This thing is based on sideswipe.
I did want to get this, but that price is beyond ridiculous. Yikes!

Should be a leader sized toy for 60 bucks.
It's based on sideswipe. From the looks of it, the arms and most of the engineering is all Sideswipe. They remolded most of the pieces, but it's the same basic figure.
I think Ectotron was a voyager sized, but I forget what figure it was loosely based on engineering-wise. I also think it was the same 60 bucks.

Ectotron is based on CW hotspot.
