It's a legion, it's exactly how big it's supposed to be.

I could go for a Hun-gurr in Deluxe though.

Like the robot mode, hate the dragon mode.

I'll pass.

For curiosity's sake, do you hate the original one as well, or is there something specific about this one that you don't like?

I have nothing against G1 Sinnertwin. It's just Twinstrike's beast mode; the lack of detailing on the heads, other than the eyes and foreheads, for the most part. The yellow's very bland to me.

I did notice the yellow, but I suspect it's the lighting playing it's part. I think in person it won't look so harsh.

Too small. I'm going to hope for a deluxe or larger version.

I'm really wanting this sinnertwin and i would buy a deluxe in a heart beat.

Hopefully the deluxe has amazing arms and has multiple joints in it so that it also works as awesome, poseable beast mode heads.

Bought on sight.

Added his reviews for Smokescreen and Airachnid.

I like Smokescreen. Aside from the arms, he's got a similar transformation of Knock Out. Totally picking him up.

Airachnid looks good, but I'll pass.

I think the smaller Airachnid with limited articulation and no real threat factor to a Bumblebee looks better than the deluxe version! :-?

Nice, an Airachnid that's worth owning.

Now give me a good voyager class one.

Twinstrike really needs to be a deluxe.
