So I bought two the other day. One Im happy with, the other not so much. I got the Grevious starship, and the Tie bomber.

Ill start off with the good one. Grevious. His ship mode is pretty slick. Its like an interstellar sports car. Its even got little pop out landing gear. Theres only one piece of the robot mode showing on the bottom, and even then it mostly looks like its just part of the ship.

I like his robot mode. His legs can get into all sorts of cool positions. he only has two arms, and two light sabres though. i was REALLY hoping hed have 4 arms. Ah well. his arms are kinda flimsy too. Gotts be careful with them. his elbow joint is this little thin piece of plastic that wouldnt take much to break.

I like him though. Hes awsome.

best part about Grevious? his massive backpack that puts gundams to shame can come off. Thank god. He looks so much better without it.

His robot mode. Ugh.

All the joints on mine are pretty loose and flimsy. There not one joint on him that I cant wiggle around like crazy.

His knee joints are fucking terrible because of the way they have to fold up into the "engines" in vehicle mode. Its double jointed, but the two joints each bend in opposite directions, which fucks up his knees every time you try to bend them. His feet suck too. He has no ankle joint so you can only get one pose out of him. Standing straight up. And to make his big engine calves smaller they pop open to fold in on itself to make it smaller. The only problem is that it doesnt fold in nice and clean, so it leave these big gaping openings on the inside sides of his calves.

His huge solar panel shields are cool though.

This is annoying too. The stuff I circled is kibble that just flaps around, pops of all the time, and just gets in the way. It doesnt clip down or lock into place at all. Its just loose and flaps around every time I move it around. ARGH.

I also forgot to mention, the hands on mine are pu on the wrong sides. Are they all like this? The left and right hand are upside down, and theres now ay to flip the arms around to fixe that. Id have to open up each arms, and pull out the little pop out hands and swithc them around, and screw them back together to get them right.

DONT BUY THIS ONE UNLESS YOU REALLY REALLY LIKE TIE BOMBERS.

No he can't unless you hold him on there.

I has both these and many off the others. I must admit, I thought the tie bomber looked awesome, but was let down.

However I totally agree with Grevious, awesome transformer is awesome.

Or you could just, you know, rotate the hands at the wrist so they're facing the right way. You DID try rotating the hands, right?

They might take a little more force to twist than you'd expect, if mine was any indication, but it can be done.

Oh god your right, I can twist them around. I had to twist them so hard my thumb hurt like a mother fucker, and i thought the hand was going to break off though. :/

I like TIE Bombers, I like TIE Pilots, and he's got one of the best LOOKING robot modes of the SWTF.

I'm so sad right now.

However, Justice Grevious looks nice (If you've seen Gundam SEED [I'm sorry] you'd agree with me). Not sure if I'll pick him up, but I appreciate the review.
