Also, just the other day, a friend and I were discussing how great it would be if Hasbro were to manufacture more Transformers comparable to Gundam figures, in that the buyer had to assemble it themselves. The Takara FJ Cruiser Optimus Prime I bought recently had a snap-on exoskeleton, and I really enjoyed the process of assembling him.

I think that these Construct-Bots just might be what I'm looking for!
And, at the clearance prices that they're selling for now, I think I'll pick up a couple.

I picked 5 of these up on Friday - Megatron, Shockwave, Thundercracker, Starscream and Ironhide - having shunned them for months... And I regret doing so. They are awesome. I'll be keeping an eye out for the Grimlock AOE one now, as it's the only AOE toy that has appealed to me so far.

EDIT: Make that 6 - just got Blitzwing.
