Because the birthday is coming up already i don’t have time to return so i’m giving 4stars total for the promptness and seeming... Read More
The missile launchers work flawlessly and the tail grabber works some of the time.
The mouth is supposed to shoot water but the pump is broken as water dribbles out of his mouth when activated.
I’m case anyone (like me) is confused this is not a 20 year old toy but a replica the company made.
Price

I watched the show when i was a kid and i had almost all the collection of toys it was a no brainer to buy the re release however there are some subtle differences with the original one is the color of megatron head the original toy had a gray metal paint around the helm of the head and now is plain black which looks kind of cheap also with the re release is missing it’s faction thermal square there was a small thermal thingy on the original toys that revealed if the beast war was a predacon or a maximal on this re release they have not added this it’s a shame as it was a cool feature anyway tech of the toy is old but is worth it for its nostalgia value for me

Other than that though this is a great figure but if you want a throw back figure that has all gimmicks working optimus primal is the way to go

I remember back in the late 90s this toy being rather expensive so to get a replica of this quality at close to or below the original msrp 25 years later is a deal i could not pass up
