FIFTY POUNDS???

That's a very heavy toy. Heavier than some toddlers. Unbelievable.

As always FansProject designs, although inspired by TF, always gives a fresh new look.

And as you said, bad-ass looking.

They raised the bar again.

By the way, the carrier mode looks like a base in Gundam lore and the jet mode is like a pimped-up Starscream.

50lbs in an 8 inch figure, of which probably half is metal, would mean than Fans Project had developed a new variety of metal, several times heavier than platinum. I can't tell if you guys are joking or not...

"super alloy"??

well if the Warbot Assaulter is made of a new variety of metal, several times heavier than platinum, then i think Prometheum5 really should've mentioned that in the review???

The rumors are false.

The rumors are false. Assaulter is actually made out of an ultra-dense new brand of meatloaf.

Needs paint

I like the sculpt on this other than the hands. Had they added more paint apps on the torso and maybe head I would be more interested in it. To me it looks like the legs are done, but the rest is still part of the unpainted prototype.

I can see what you're saying,

I can see what you're saying, it's a lot of gray. Its actually pretty accurate to the original toy tho, with s lit of color on the legs and not much else:

50 lbs? I doubt that

Unless its a dumbbell or Superman's key to the Fortress of Solitude, I doubt that Assaulter weighs in that range. I bet its just the same weight as an ordinary laptop.

yeah, but does he weigh as much as a 13", 15" or 17"?
