TOY NEWS FOR 11/13/2013 - ART STORM - BRAVE GOKIN - TRANSFORMERS - EXCEL SUIT (EXO-SUIT) WITH SPIKE AND DANIEL

UPDATE - 12/30/2013 - NEW OFFICIAL PICS!!!










-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here's the painted version of Art Storm's upcoming "Excel Suit" with Spike and Daniel.

We saw this suit on display at another convention over the summer, but at that point is was a simple, unpainted prototype. This new pic clearly shows is closer to what will be the production version.

While this suit looks pretty spot on to the one seen in Transformers the Movie (and season 3-4 of the cartoon series)-- and the suit even transforms into it's vehicle mode-- the scale doesn't fit in with any other Transformers line, so it's essentially a "stand alone" piece.

It would also be great is Spike and Daniel were articulated rather than static figures.

And finally, on another down note, this piece is by Art Storm, who notoriously produces products on the high, high end of the price spectrum. So this piece will not come cheap.

For me, while the suit looks great, all these factors add up to a "pass" on this piece.


More info, like price and release date, as it becomes available.
