Re: What figure surprised you? Good or bad.

Decided to add another figure to the list.

Siege Astrotrain.

What a disappointment. He is pretty great in robot mode, but what a mess in the altmodes.

I understand this is a retail release so I don't expect MP/third party level design. However it seems like Robot mode took precedence, and any cues from other attempts were given only a cursory passover.

The shuttle mode is fair, but the back end is a greebly mess that doesn't even have the fairly uniform look of the G1 toy!

Don't even get me started on the train mode. I don't know if it was my copy, but it doesn't even fit well together to make a solid looking train.

Also, even though he is leader class it makes me sad how small he feels. In the show he was shown to be nearly combiner size so another notch for the disappointment column.
