Nice sculpt...but, given the Takara-Tomy version incoming, I'll defer to the official release...

I have chosen Badcube Sunsurge as my poison.

Both are great. It's about 2 ways of design and engineering a same character. Good to learn from these. I like the proportions on Omnigonix version in robot mode. Same with the rear of the car in alt mode, more accurate. Last FT releases :

Badcube and Omnigonix Sunstreakers : I've already bought and paid for Badcube's version, but I do have to say that I appreciate the clean back and what looks to be a simpler transformation from Omnigonix's entry. Overall I still like the proportions and look of Badcube's but it doesn't seem like one can go wrong with either selection.

I really want to get the OS Evasion Prime. Looks good but a bit expensive. If I can find it for less than the $150 that TF-Direct is selling at. And they sold out of it at that price. Hopefully my buddy can come through for me while he in Asia. I told him to keep an eye out for it. My two cents on Badcubes SunSurge, I am a little disappointed, because of the overwhelming positive and the hype. I was so blown away with how good Maketoys GunDog is. It kinda like set the bar high so now I want figures with quality that is similar. Overall SunSurge isn't bad, just no where near as good as Gundog. The paint job is good. The coat of yellow paint in vehicle mode is nice. But there are places where the paint is kinda thin and uneven. Like the yellow paint on the bat ears (head). They can surely use a few more coats and be cleaner. The fake chest, it's made of clear blue plastic with yellow paint on top. That could also be painted better. Aside from this, the build quality also isn't as good when compared to Gundog. The joints while ratcheted could be stronger. They are way too soft. They hold in place no problem, the limbs aren't heavy. But it's easy to unintentional move when posing. The transformation isn't hard and everything locks fine, but overall, not as clean. To those getting him, you know what I mean when you go to close the top part over the fake chest. It tabs in fine with all the points, but one side always seems not to stay as flush as I want it to. SunSurge looks good, really good in robot mode. The car mode compares really good and even better than MP Sideswipe. All except the back end of the car. Now for comparison shots I see of Omni's Spinout, their version of SunStreaker, the back of the car looks right but the front doesn't and the top of the vehicle looks nothing like the official MP. In Robot mode, Spinout also cleans up better from the back, and looks better than Sunsurge. Only thing that isn't good is the hollow out lower legs. But the reason I went with BC is because I like the proportions better. Omni's Version just look too squat and fat. Not how I remember or want SunStreaker to look like. The whole duck feet thing doesn't bother me. The front of the hood becomes the feet, I mean MP Wheeljack is this way too. Only difference is that the bulk of the lower leg fills in more to cover it up some. SunSurge can do the same with mistransformation, but I prefer the leaner skinnier long leg look. In comparison with MP SideSwipe, the head doesn't match well. Sideswipe need a new head. I've always hated the face on the MP Sideswipe. It's too small.

Hopefully my buddy can come through for me while he in Asia. I told him to keep an eye out for it. Definitely don't spend that much on him. I got mine for a little under 100, and there is at least one seller on Aliexpress that's selling it for less than 90 shipped.

Also, a small correction, TF-direct had it at $100. Could of sworn I saw it at $150. It's sold out there though.

Mein Gott is Hellfire gorgeous. It's very pretty. I still haven't gotten a chance to actually mess with it though; bleh. I was kind of let down to see that ToyWorld Conehead mold is a MasterPiece rather than Classics. but it's nice looking and I may bite.
