BenZonah: Great Dr Wu Nemesis Prime. Seems based on siege or earthrise prime. Includes trailer, arms, gun, roller and laser axe. The paint scheme looks good on this guy. I like it better than the other Prime colors. Fairly posable and easy to transform. This copy is going with Nemesis Magnus.

BenZonah: Really great figure with one flaw. Looks great with lots of articulation. The neck in dino mode is great. The dino is very flexible and can be posed in poses from the movie fight with Devastator. Includes bulging eyes, alternate set of yellow dino feet (pin removal required), open hands, gun and keg covers for Grimlock. Great face sculpt.  One big flaw is that you can't hind his hands in dino mode, they have to be removed. Most New age figures could at least could hide the fists. Hope a third party makes a kit with new forearms.

BenZonah: Good set with some QC issues. These guys look great. I like the transformation, it's relatively straightforward and simple.

My set came with overtightened screws in the feet. Had to adjust them. The arms in the hood also had some issues when they wouldn't slide out. This caused the arms to pop off until the arms slid forward and came out they seemed to be stuck.)

Worth the money though.

BenZonah: Sorely disappointed with this. It looks nice but Newage seems to manage to screw up their products lately. This thing has two major defects which appear to be design related. The first is that the arms when moved, push back some kind of hinge. Even after pushing it in, it still won't stay.

Second, there is a warning at the END of the instructions, (not the beginning where an intelligent person would place it) about scraping the paint. This is a poorly designed product if you have to worry about that.

If those issues weren't present, this would be a great figure as the transformation is fairly simple and the sculy looks great. But new age is going the way of XTB.

BenZonah: Cool set. Good quality and easy to transform. The blades in the air drone rotate and aren't static.  Comes with a small model kit of the cassette bots.

BenZonah: I love this mold. The Scourge/ Sweeps mold is great. It has a great transformation, especially for it's size. These will look great if you have a Unicron. Both bot and alt mode look fantastic. Hope Dr. Wu releases a transparent version of this figure.

Includes two guns.

BenZonah: This is truly an excellent set. The quality is good but it definitely feels different from the official, which has better plastic. The tolerances are excellent, with a few having some tightness that doesn't seem to be an issue. No lose joints. The amount of accessories is awesome. I have the third release I think. The flame effects weren't included. Not sure if this intentional or the factory messed up.

There are sprue marks in various places, which is annoying but for the price is tolerable. It's easy to switch the heads and arm. The Starscream pieces alone are worth buying this set for.

BenZonah: The black version of Magic Square's Soundwave. Paint looks great.

His alt mode is same as the blue version, a little disappointing. The tapes get stuck in his chest. You have to open the back and push them out. His energon cube also doesn't fit on his chest.

If you like the blue version, you will like this version as well. If you didn't like the blue version, you won't like this version either.

Comes with Lazerbeak, who is great in this scale.

BenZonah: Figure looks good. Paint is nice but I am extremely disappointed in the engineering.  There is a very thin piece of plastic holding the front of his gun on. When transforming him, it seems really easy to break and you need to be very careful.  That should have been die cast instead of plastic.
