Then you had the Taiwanese knockoff...Bendi, they used cheap plastic, it was flimsy, and the moulds were all off. As a result the Bandai models would actually stand up to quite a bit of abuse, whereas if you looked at the Bendi models wrong they would fall apart. Why am I bringing this point up? Because clearly whoever decided to construct the Transformers for the movie hired Bandai to build the Autobots and with the leftover change commissioned Bendi to slap together something resembling a Decepticon.

Hey. Don't insult my Bendi Gandum!
Seriously though, this review put me into depression mode. I was really excited to see a war and the Decepticons look like something of a threat after being destroyed en masse by tanks in Revenge of the Fallen...
