Just optibotimus review of the set. Swindle in the tallest, from what he said. However he didnt od a size comparison for individual bot mode, but Im not sure because I didnt watch the whole review. At an hour long, I didnt want to.

Re: Fall of Cybertron - Optimus Prime, Jazz and Shockwave

I watched the whole review and the update too...no size comparison with any other deluxe class figure. Not a fan of the arms at all. Come on FP, we need an upgrade.lol.

Lol, Matrix, you gonna get the Brut. at all? If so, SDCC or mass release?

These things in both verison I like. SDCC, for Swindle, Brawl, and Onslaught. Vortex and Balst off I can go for any colour. Hopefully some vendors have SDCC Brut. at TFcon.

Re: Fall of Cybertron - Optimus Prime, Jazz and Shockwave

The Shockwave is a really good figure despite lacking some articulation in the torso, no thigh swivels, no bicep swivels. The sculpting is great. The snap on gun arm would've been a lot better if there was a bit more articulation in the arms to pose him with.

I'll probably be picking up the Jazz and Prime when it hits retail. I doubt I'll have trouble finding them.

Re: Fall of Cybertron - Optimus Prime, Jazz and Shockwave

As much as I want a Shockwave, he seems so small.

Re: Fall of Cybertron - Optimus Prime, Jazz and Shockwave

Re: Fall of Cybertron - Optimus Prime, Jazz and Shockwave

Yeah, he just doesnt fit wit a Classics shelf. Why would they make a Voyager Soundwave but not Shockwave. Derp.

Re: Fall of Cybertron - Optimus Prime, Jazz and Shockwave

I ordered up the Takara release of Shockwave. I wonder how the Japanese releases will differ?

that's about right, though Swindle appears to be the tallest: he's a bit taller than WFC Optimus somehow. Onslaught is about the same as WFC Megatron. All from Emgo.

I agree, great reviews. You have certainly convinced me to buy Shockwave & Jazz, whom I was on the fence about.

Merci beaucoup!
