Default Look: A 370z Transformer :)

I snapped this bad boy up the second I saw it, sitting in a Tamiya store in Philippines during my honeymoon last week.

Did a quick search and only found early pre-release pictures of this all in gray on the forum, so I thought you might be interested in seeing the final retail version and how it transforms into Megatron.

I was stunning how they managed to engineer it with opening doors and hood, the engine bay's in there, seats, steering wheels. The tires are rubber with treads, the Rays wheels are close and the whole thing's nice and heavy. Feels expensive.

Cost me just over 60 bucks. My wife thinks I'm a kid for buying it. But I don't care because it's awesome and she's clearly got no idea what she's talking about. I think it's because I won't let her transform it.

Me as well. Well made parts. It's about $45 on Amazon. Comes in black or blue.

Pretty cool. I love how us men are always a kid at heart. I grew on transformers. Had a bunch of them.

Got mine in black for Christmas as a surprise from the wife, thought it was cool. Transforming into the robot was easy, but it took some practice to transform it back into the car, LOL.

I think the silver one was the second color for the GTR optimis prime. The first color was red.
