Backstop was the designer cooking too hard. The weird arms and awkward legs are too much baggage for a Cybertron scout who predominantly were simple, effective toys who didn’t try to reinvent the wheel. Leobreaker is the posterchild for budget cuts. If they could shave off about a third of his...

He also sells synthetic energon on the side and likes to knock.

So that’s it? We some kind of Transformers: Generations: Power of the Primes Part Two?

Savage Claw mode is infinitely more interesting and deserved a better toy and more spotlight than Optimus Prime Super Mode but with swords

They work alright, just stupidly overpriced. I buy ones two or three models behind since the only major differences for my purposes are the cameras. the worst apple gets is a notification on the settings icon.

IOS is the most annoying thing. Your password for this website is weak and may be a security hazard. We suggest to change it to “dhrh77;!krbsp@“ Bruh, This is for a website where i play random battle Pokemon.

Man I want a green G1 Ratchet. And no, I want one with a face and arms in the proper location.

Hasbro: We’ve designed the most awkward shoulders ever! Fans Hobby: Hold my beer.

Last in my haul is Bumblebee. I like him but there are a few things about him I don’t like. Articulation is decent, though his left elbow is waaaay tighter than his right and the sheer size of his feet make some poses awkward regardless of the tilts. Paint is what it is but it is a bit offbrand...

I’ll be honest: I can’t be bothered to get a rectangle’s name right. If they want to be taken seriously, they’ll need at least two more sides and double the total internal angle.

Nightshriek rounds out the twothree-pack. It’s a simple, effective colorscheme but the mold just isn’t much. The head can move up and down while the legs can fold in and out. The painted detail helps differentiate him from Ratbat but it’s nothing outstanding. He’s meant to perch on Thundertron...

Only thing giving me pause is the history of Takara reissuing the same characters in better color schemes right before releasing a superior mold.

Moving on to the meat of the three-pack, Thundertron. He’s a well-articulated robot with a lot of style. Aside from the regal stylings expected of a pirate captain, he’s covered in sculpted battle damage. In peg-leg mode though, his balance isn’t the best but that’s real world accuracy I guess...

The Takara Triple Takeover Set is surprisingly cheap and I do love that episode. I'm in.

Calcitron is… okay. Mentioned the tolerances in earlier posts but they were mostly fixable with a little breaking in and floor polish. Except for his stupid detachable arms. Colors work well as an arctic themed deco but I don’t know how well that translates to a character made of rock. Would...

Google ads think I’m American. Frankly I’m insulted.

You canexcuse the rest of him because of the combining gimmick but there’s no excuse for that face.

Jesus this hall of fame thing really went to the dumps fast.

They couldn’t even be bothered to have it on their website or something. Literally google forms lol.

Here’s the other guy from the 4-pack I’m keeping. Cliffjumper’s great. new head is Prime Cliffjumper with a nose but I always liked how aggressive Prime Cliffjumper’s head design was, so this is a huge pro for me. Colors look about right eyeballing it though I wonder if coloring the headlights...
