He's a Leader class huh? Makes sense, and he looks awesome.

Hmm? Please elaborate.

Took them long enough. Since when do things go down under before going to the USA?

I'm guessing the "makes sense" means something along the lines of 'He's highly ranked, he's powerful, he's big in the cartoon, so Leader." I'm deliberately avoiding Supreme, coz' of that s**t Prime

Wat? He ain't shiny at all. Matte, matte, and more matte.

Looks great, but I probably won't get him. Maybe if I ever thin out the ranks I have I'll snag him on the secondary market.

some bloke in HK already has some out-of-the-box ones for £5 + £27 p&p on a ebay *. run a search for 'transformers animated' and you should find them. seems to have reasonable feedback, so who knows? a new out-of-the-box leader in the UK for £32 long before his release here? I'm thinking about it.....

(*other auction sites available, etc)

Well if he's available at mass retail in the US, then it won't be long before he starts popping up in Canada.

Only Supreme I see myself buying in the future is the rumored Omega Supreme, or it's inevitable repaint as Omega Sentinel.

I like how UM looks, but this f***ing economy is kinda hampering TF collecting for me.

Thanks for the tip.

Though I should have been a bit clearer. What I meant was that I'd pick him up a few years down the road. I've got a ton of TFs that I'd need to sell off first before I can think of getting anymore large TFs. Animated Megs was the last of them for the time being . . . really. I mean it this time.
