Animated Sentinel Prime




Fire up the trumpets for the most spectacular intro ever! The biggest douchebag this side of the Big Bang has arrived:
Sentinel Prime

Hope he never finds out a toy has been made of him, or his megalomania would even give Unicron's a run for it's money, and yes, that is saying something. Please note: I will refrain from any references to The Tick.

But joking aside, his toy is pretty nicely done. Now I think the Animated line is very consistent in it's high quality, and Sentinel is no exception. As far as show-accuracy goes, Sentinel is a job well done. His face-mold is spot-on, including a chin which would make Aaron Eckhart cry, and an expression that leaves no room for doubt about how he feels about... well, everyone.
His legs are very bulky, compared to his slender-legged cartoon-model, but it's not disturbing in any way. The doorplates over his hands feature his stripes of the Cybertron Elite Guard. His weaponry consist of a shield and lance befitting the name Sentinel, and these lock into eachother and onto his alt-mode roof. His already broad chest is augmented by the two halves of the plow of said alt-mode: a plowtruck.

In this truck-mode there is nothing immediately visible that would betray the robot within. Unless you know what the obnoxiously placed Elite Guard symbol on the hood means. Even the
From the underside his head is clearly present, though. And he wouldn't have it any other way himself, I take it.

Overall a good incarnation of a total jackass the Elite Guard Fieldcommander. My one gripe is the limited poseability of his arms. Not that it's horrible, I just think a few swivel-joints here and there wouldn't have hurt.


SPOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!!!!!
...okay, so I lied.
