BenZonah: Looks great. But has multiple QC issues. The paint scratches real easily. So be really careful. The spring loaded mechanism doesn't work. I discovered it was missing a screw (factory issue). I had to unscrew part of it to get the cassette out. This is best left untouched and on the shelf in one mode.

I'd save your money. Even at $70, the QC is not good.

BenZonah: Small but great engineering. A repaint and remold of their Arcee. Awesome figure.The feet becoming part of the seats and the head splitting in the transformation are genius. Some minor dislikes about this, but given the size it's understandable.

Comes with swords and sais. Paint on her looks really great.

Dislike that it costs more than Arcee. Probably a limited run and with inflation increasing every day, it's understandable why.

BenZonah: The system won't let you rate an item if bought as part of a multi-item order but this is 4 of 5 stars. The quality is good but it's slightly below than their Nicee KO. Poses well, paint is decent. Accessories just like Nicee. I wish they had used a different face sculpt for this one. Looks kinda odd. Not worth $100. But is worth the $55 on sale at Show.Z now. Grab one while you can.

BenZonah: The quality is good but it's slightly below than their Nicee KO. Poses well, paint is decent. Accessories just like Nicee. This is supposed to be modeled after Halle Berry's catwoman. So the "skin" on the robot body is brown, but the face is white. It looks odd. Wonder why they didn't color match or if this is just a factory error. Not worth $100. Due to the face mismatch, I question if it's worth $55.

BenZonah: It's a set of trumpets for MS constructicons. Looks good and fits well for the coronation scene.

BenZonah: This is a clever use of the Cyclonus mold. Give him a new head and turn the ship around. It's great use of the Cyclonus mold. Easy to transform. Great paint job. I don't like that they made the alt mode horns plug into the same spot as where his hands go.  This means you have to unplug them in alt mode. You could leave both the hands and and horns in half way but it looks bad like that. They could have designed something to plug into the engine, which would look better. I guess newage got lazy.

Kinda funny they included the Cyclonus instructions. Not a big deal since it's the same mold.

BenZonah: Absolutely gorgeous bot mode. Nicely sculpted and well painted. The metallic red is absolutely beautiful. The head is great. Includes four pairs of hands and several face plates.

Flaws.
- Can stand on her own, but likely requires a stand
- Alt mode is so-so, but you're likely not buying this for the alt mode.
- In bot mode, the cockpit covers the backside which looks odd.
- The ribbon on her head keeps falling off on my copy. Probably need to add a thin layer of super glue to the ribbon to increase the thickness of the ribbon (not glue it in)

Despite the flaws it's a must buy.

BenZonah: This is an awesome set for the price. Oversized SS86 sharkticons look great with MP scale bots. I didn't have any QC issues with this set, though I've read this varies.
