Thanks for mentioning that the microscope, unlike previous releases of this mould, doesn't function. Other reviewers didn't mention this. This is the deal-breaker for me. When Hasbro take G1 moulds and start disabling aspects of them, I'm out.
Yeah I was kinda bummed about it honestly. Oddly it was in the instructions to look through it. Somewhere along the line something got messed up I think
I 'am happy that Walmart has these as an Exclusive, the only thing about these is that Walmart is not sending these to all their stores, They did Starscream Only. While Starscream is a peg warmer it would be great to find the reset in stores. #walmart
I think this retro movie line have more retro feel against the modern studio series movie line. Using painting against decals, no sensitive chrome pieces is a good change and more cartoon accurate.But i think head can be updated, and the scope mode also a big missing feature. Maybe this line have also a main ,,rule" 1:1 mold and only re-coloring allowed, no any parts replacement. Shame here in EU these not aviable. thanks for the review.
@@GhostPrimeReviews order something from a webshop allowed, im talking about the local stores - we almost get locally just a regular edition toys. Shipping cost and tax sometimes killing our wallets:)
Who would have thought Perceptor has developed cataracts🤣
I wonder if it's even possible to polish the lens?
Thats funny.. and it may be if you take it apart

Yeah, true. Seems these are online only for the most part. Maybe they are afraid of peg-warming in stores?
Wtf. Movie accurate my butt they didn’t even give him a movie accurate head
Hasbro has stated that they are not changing any of the molds for new tooling on any of these. It would be very cool to have a accurate head on him!

Hasbro has said that they are only using existing molds, and they will not have any new retooling. Indemand toys doesn't ship to the EU?

Great review man!
Thanks!
If they wanted it to look just like the movie version. They should have given him a mouth instead of a face plate like Prime.
I would love to see that! same for Blaster. Unfortunately they have stated that there will be no re-tooling for any of these releases.
@@GhostPrimeReviews yes. And I am sure it would take a lot of money to retool or come up with a new mold from Perceptor.
I got 1 from Walmart ont with kick back my kick back action figure came with five purple cubes
I have a Kickback on the way. I have heard they come with the Energon cubes.
Its at Canadian Walmarts.
Yes. As I mentioned in the video.
Yes I noticed hasbro got cheap some what
That Translucent plastic is sub par on the lens. Its a shame, but the rest of it feels good.
