Takara United Rumble & Frenzy

Introducing... Rumble & Frenzy! These two were wonderful Xmas gifts from my buddy who is about just as crazy about toys as I am!

Cybertronian Optimus Prime

Cybertronian Optimus Prime is one of the nicest looking figures from the War for Cybertron series. I like how his armor design bulks him up and the headsculpt is terrific.

The plastic quality for the Takara...
