   Studio cell/not Unicron notes:
   ….
   Well,where to begin?
   Its not $750!!
   The fig part is good,I’ve had/ have to do some shaving/removal to some plastic parts to aid in the transformation, and some more as well but I’ve not broken it yet I believe so far,the transformation took me 2 attempts for the planet mode so that was around 3.5 hours (I attribute that to it being a first time..well get to that “cherry part” later Daryl),and the fact a LOT of parts need to be “just in the right place” or everything else just does not work and that’s just that,the transformation is complex,far more than the haslab I feel.
   The weight is good,heavier than I was expecting.
   I dont like the fact you “get the point” every time you hold it,or the fact it’s a “mirror mold” unit..not only it every part duplicated (and that’s fine,die cast on rfc said they only need to design half a figure,one arm/leg,torso parts ,etc,but the ie: is no assimitry so there is a mirrored part/ tower etc as well and I do belive haslab did the same to a point,but the shell is different so the do have that.
   I do understand the alt mode effects the robot and vice versa,but they chose the robot mode over planet so that’s ok,the DMG head cannon is “this is the new body he would had gotten if starscream hooked him into cybertron/his new body overall”
   I did obtain a display/ used copy so I got it a bit cheaper close to than the second run off of tf source.
   Over all it boils down to two things for me:
   One:after this ive come to terms that its highly unlikely that we will EVER have a G1 86 movie version that does what the movie character does/transforms..its much easier to animate a transformation ie hot rod and his multi transformations in said movie,then an actual transformation ex: armada Unicron followed his toy transformation because it came/designed first.
   Two: the “cherry part”,that honor goes to the Sunday Daryl can take when we meet if ever in person,no “brown chicken brown cow”
   It being my first 3p item..,my wallet hurts,but the quality seems to be there over all..the REAL pebble that started this landslide for me is the “rimus,the seed creator” from show z,I’m waiting on what the pre order price will be,I hope not too much more than cell,but I feel committed somewhat now at this point.but 8 hope he wont be “mirror moled” as much.
   SO,I can put him soon with armada Unicron/cybertron Primus,and my War planets planet collection, a show that mainframe also did besides beast wars,it alas had only 2 seasons,but a VERY well written show also.
   Well that’s it for now transmissions,
   Take care,
   DMG
