This one is going to be really expensive. The size almost twice that of the knight morpher and that one already runs @ $90+. I'll get one if it tanks like 1st version knight morpher, the BTS Sonicron and that Xovergen Grand Patriot.

Anybody get one of these? From what I've seen its a great piece and could stand in for a MP Shockwave. I'm just not sure about the steampunk boat look if it would look good next to other MP Decepticons.

I have one. Great MP except Transformation wich is a pain in the *$$. The waist joint is plastic made : mine broke up. I was not carefully enough. -> follow the instructions by the letters. Mastermind proposed to send me the replacement part.
If you want I can post pics with him standing to others MPs. This figure is really huge and impressive : lots of details. The little Cyclops-Submarine is a great bonus toy included.
Steampunk design is very special. I am not a big fan of Steampunk. I picked up this piece to give support to Mastermind and have an idea of their production : beautifull and original. Recently they anounced Hound to received an HOS style and enter their catalog. I am still hesitating to buy a HOS Starscream. Too many toys are comin'...

That would be great, from what I've seen he's not as tall as MP-10 but is much wider. I'm just not sure about the price its quite a bit.

Voilà : (sorry for this quick shot) This release was very risky to Mastermind. I had a chat with their design developper : the HOS design is not as popular as G1 designs and their Cyclops is a huge figure with a lot of parts to produce (molds production cost is still expensive). It's a kind of one shot release with this scale.... The regular scale adopted is Knight Morpher and Screech figures... So it's important to give them support by buying their productions (if money is here). They are trying to push a lot to propose high quality toys with original designs. Here is a preview for HOS Hound (probably a caterpillar/panzer):

Thanks, wow he's big! I'm still on the fence about this one I like the size I just wish it was G1.

The sculpt and size of this piece is excellent. The transformation is complex but really only the back panels are annoying to transform properly. The rest is creative and fun to do.
Mine has an loose elbow though. Common problems with most of them. Doesn't really bother me since there isn't much one can do with that big arm anyways.

Yeah that's what I'm thinking too plus it gives me time to save some money.
