TRANSFORMERS TIMELINES SAMURAI OPTIMUS PRIME & STARSCREAM

Finally some good fucking food!

Review in alts!
Review 1160 TRANSFORMERS TIMELINES SAMURAI OPTIMUS PRIME & STARSCREAM I love the creativity here! These figures are the kind of out of the box character design I've been craving from transformers again for ages and finally breaking away from the evergreen design philosophy! The results are mixed for sure, but overall... im content with this set! Prime especially is just immaculate! With such a unique and engaging conversion from robot mode to an ox carrying a cart! Which really does feel like the perfect alt mode for prime in a feudal era setting! I just love how the arms unfold from around the torso and the legs angle a certain way all to meet together as the carriage, with the torso just becoming the cutest little ox robot you've ever seen! He even has movable front legs! Though of course most the articulation went to robot mode, where hes got the standard deluxe articulation though with only a neck swivel limiting hos head movement. But he can pull off some great poses regardless, and the balljointed wrists make weilding his naginata a dream! Aaaaaaand then there's starscream! Not a bad toy at all. But like... he shares the same Airrazor engineering thats been used for so many bird molds the past four years, both retools and new molds! And he is a new mold and he does look good, especially in bird mode is think! The face sculpt for the bird really radiates starscreams personality! But as a whole, both conceptually and practically, hes so boring... especially behind Primes shadow! But overall im happy with this set! Is it the best thing ever? Not really no. And as great as prime is, idk if the set as a whole is worth it for how much it would cost to get it shipped from pulse. And since they're still readily available on the site, im betting they'll go on sale eventually! And if they do, I highly recommend checking them out! Starscream aside the set is a really fun time!

TRANSFORMERS DARK OF THE MOON CYBERVERSE COMMANDER SENTINEL PRIME

This toy is so good... he must be up to no good!

Review in alt!
Review 1159 TRANSFORMERS DARK OF THE MOON CYBERVERSE COMMANDER SENTINEL PRIME Today I end my latest lot of legion figures with another great toy from my childhood, and another great example of how sometimes less can be more! As all things considered, this is unironically my favorite movie Sentinel Prime toy! Where other Sentinels are pretty panel heavy and kibbletastic, this one actually utilizes the simplified details to its advantage and manages its mass extremely effectively! With the only kibble to mention being the cape thats supposed to be there! And hes also got the perfect set of weapons! A sword and a shield formed from the roof but actually transformed into a film accurate form! The SS toy leaves out this shield so its nice to have one with it again! The colors and paint are also perfect for the size, and articulation actually excells the average legion figure with knees, hips, and elbows on balljoints as well as universal shoulders! Only thing he's really missing is a head swivel but at this scale im not mad he doesn't have it! Not my favorite toy of this size class by any means, but he is a stellar release all things considered! Easy to transform, and looks and feels great in both modes! Thats a solid transformer if I've ever seen one and surely he will never betray me!

TRANSFORMERS REVENGE OF THE FALLEN LEGION CLASS JOLT

Little things add up...

Review in alt!
Review 1158 TRANSFORMERS REVENGE OF THE FALLEN LEGION CLASS JOLT Welp... they can't all be winners. For every lot of amazing toys one might get, you're bound to get just a disastrous release every now and then, and for me, Jolt is that release. And its not often I label a toy as "bad", usually I try and see the positives in a release with a negative stigma around it or sometimes the hate on a figure is drastically overdone. But I mean, c'mon! I see what they were going for, trying to give him a unique transformation, and some of his features from the movie like the back kibble parts abd the skinny waist and legs. They were too ambitious for the price point though and that resulted in jolts downfall as a super top heavy bot with minimal articulation to work with and minimal footing to stand on. And yes while the transformation is unique... its not necessarily... "fun". With akward spaces to fit things into and an overall feeling of incompleteness... hes just a bad time. Cant play with him... can't display him in robot mode, doesn't even look great in either mode. Sorry but this is a fumble of a legion figure if I've ever seen one! Unless you really want to complete a rotf collection, id say pass on this one... yeesh!

TRANSFORMERS DARK OF THE MOON CYBERVERSE BLACKOUT

Big brilliant baby!

Review in alt!
Review 1157 TRANSFORMERS DARK OF THE MOON CYBERVERSE COMMANDER BLACKOUT OK last Review we looked at the OG legion blackout mold with grindor and he was alright and all... but this one from the third movie... this thing is GOATED! honestly one of the most fun blackout figures I've handled in any size class, including the Studio Series figure! Its amazing how much they're able to cram into such a small package! Love how the legs folds away for transformation and are super articulated! The arms are formed from the tail reducing kibble on the back and also giving him his rotor weapon! They even gave him a little scorponok companion that can store on his back or under the helicopter mode! Core class could never! Transformation is pretty addicting too! The legs fold away near seamlessly! The arms, shoulders and torso all move as one unit and the shoulders act as panels to hide all the kibble, without actually being overly panely or a shellformer! And the resulting helicopter mode is damn near flawless! With only a bit of the ankles and hands visible, otherwise nothing to give away that it even transforms! And they even put flight stand or weapon ports on the bottom for even more functionality! This thing is seriously awesome! And if you only had to have ONE small scale figure from the movies, this guy is a definite first choice for me! Balancing articulation, transformation, and aesthetic in a neat little package! Amazing!

HUNT FOR THE DECEPTICONS BOMBING RUN BATTLE GRINDOR

Such a mouthful for such a little guy~

Review in alt!
Review 1156 TRANSFORMERS HUNT FOR THE DECEPTICONS BOMBING RUN BATTLE GRINDOR Another victim mold if a design seemingly being too complicated for the 2007 team to put into legion scale properly, and since many of the 2007 molds got reused for the 2009-2010 toylines, the design philosophy carried over! And this mold on its own is not bad mind you, just incredibly inaccurate to the blackout and grindor character models! That being said again, I dont hete this toy one nit! And actually being able to own it in a deco not seen in the film actually allows me to disconnect it from that design further and enjoy it on its own merits! Love how the legs fold into themselves on balljointed knees and the cockpit splits into the arms! It does form a slimmer robot and unfortunately the hollow feet lead to balance issues, but we can live! And it is akward the knees dont bend with the legs at proper orientation, you can fake knees though by rotating the legs! Cant do the same for the elbows though... This specific version does come from a two-pack set with a deluxe bumblebee, I dont have that bumblebee but honestly its fine I got plenty! Im just here for this beautiful vibrant tan and orange deco! Very reminiscent of G1 sandstorm, so much so I've now headcannoned them as opposite numbers! I actually wouldn't be surprised if this toy was colored with sandstorm being the character in mind! But regardless the coloring is simply beautiful and does make this version of the mold stand out against all others! Though in the end... should you seek this out? Eh. Hes pretty cool if you can find one cheap like under 10 dollars, but unless you want the whole pack i wouldn't spend more than that on this cute but very dated mold!

TRANSFORMERS DARK OF THE MOON CYBERVERSE BARRICADE & CRANKCASE

Decepticon crooked cops... fitting!

Reviews in alt!
Review 1155 TRANSFORMERS DARK OF THE MOON CYBERVERSE BARRICADE & CRANKCASE Im reviewing these two together honestly because while they're fine toys, crankcase especially, im just really not wanting to give police themed bot the spotlight right now given the state of everything right now. And I will say only one more thing on the subject, one of the best things Michael Bay did with the transformers movies, was introduce its only Cop characters as decepticons! Barricade honestly is... not great, and it all comes down to his legs, which honestly make no sense to me as they're on a permanent 25° bend! Like not even digigrade like many other movie decepticons, just a perma-squat that really makes posing this dude damn near impossible! At least his feet are balljointed for balance, and this version has a weapon port if you want to give him one, but honestly, robot mode is kind of ass! At least his alt mode is solid, with a minimalistic transformation to get there. But like... its hard to get a car wrong at this scale! So really hes awarded no brownie points from me... Crankcase on the other hand is actually an excellent legion figure! Despite articulation being the same and also having digigrade legs, his feel loads more natural and hes just got an inherently more interesting sculpt and design! With a neat transformation for how simple it is and a really tidy SUV, im just having loads more fun with this guy that many other legion figures I've gotten in this lot! So yeah these guy are neat if you can find em cheap! Realistically, I wouldn't spend more than thirteen dollars and twelve cents on em collectively! Just sayin!

TRANSFORMERS 2010 STEALTH BUMBLEBEE

Never underestimate the little guy!

Review in alt!
Review 1154 TRANSFORMERS 2010 STEALTH BUMBLEBEE Another legion class bumblebee for my seemingly endless bee army, as well as my rapidly growing collection of black bumblebee repaints bc on their own those are rad as hell! I do already own this bumblebee mold from the revenge of the fallen toyline and I dont mind owning it again bc it is a very solid little toy! And the ROTF toyline even features a black and yellow repaint of its own aside from this mid-movie release, with the only difference really being the yellow here is brighter and I think the stripes are thinner, at least thats how they look online. But yeah, he chillin! Articulation is basic but for such a scale and price im not expecting anything too epic in scope, balljointed hips and shoulders is really all a toy like this needs as long as the transformation is solid and snappy, which it is, so i call this an absolute win of a legion figure! Not much to say aside from that though so yeah! Go buy him! Have fun! Stay safe out there everybody!

TRANSFORMERS DARK OF THE MOON GUZZLE

Bros built different! ...smol...

Review in alt!
Review 1153 TRANSFORMERS DARK OF THE MOON CYBERVERSE COMMANDER GUZZLE Back at it again with more legends scale toys! And this time I've acquired a toy I've wanted for a really long time, but never really considered a "grail" per say, more a passing desire. Its also funny this is the ONLY official Guzzle toy since the G1 original, with no word of any new versions of any of the sparkobots happening anytime soon. Hes a fun little fella! Definitely movie-esque with its intense greebling and realistic alt mode, but feels IDW inspired in its proportions. And thos is definitely one of those legends toys I feel you can either put with other legends toys as a big brute of a character, OR put him with your main line transformers as a Brawn style little dude! Which I've personally opted to do! Aside from that honestly as a toy... there isn't much to talk about. Basic articulation and predictable transformation, and I find the little guns on top to be a little tedious as they clash with the arm panels and make the arms look overall kibbly. But he's neither outstanding or outrageous... he's simply he. And hes all he needs to be. A pretty good little dude!

TRANSFORMERS PRIME BEAST HUNTERS SHARKTICON MEGATRON

Funky freshwater frienemy!

Review in alt!
Review 1152 TRANSFORMERS PRIME BEAST HUNTERS SHARKTICON MEGATRON Starting the new year off with a bang! At least toy wise... but with the first toy of the year being a late Christmas gift and a legendary toy from my childhood, im not complaining about this guy one bit! And actually, as controversial as this may be to say... I actually prefer this deco over either the hasbro original or the hades megatron, who's is my TFP megatron rep. But yeah Prime Megatron is cool and all! Great mold, though a little flawed, but with an awesome design thats relatively show accurate, just can't hold a candle to the bright toyetic design and energy this version holds! You gotta admit this is cool! The beastial face on the chest with the shark teeth extenuating the pectoral shape, the shark fin wrist guards, the spicier shoulder pads, hell even the head sculpt is made flasher with the new head crest and more animalistic face sculpt! All enhanced with a new deep brown color scheme with pink blue and green highlights that make all those details pop out beautifully! This is such a gorgeous toy that hits the mark in a way many beast hunters retools simply do not! Of course hes not flawless, no toy is! The TFP megatrob mold notoriously has two functionality flaws, being the arm articulation, he really needed an upper bicep swivel on the arms. And the backpack, which has two massive panels that ruin the silhouette! I usually dont talk about backpacks much, but his is so jarring and akward it had to be mentioned! But is those are literally his only flaws, than so be it. On all other fronts this is a fun toy from the 2010s! And though he may not be as commonly beloved as his pretooled counterpart, this toy deserves some much more lave and attention and is well worth seeking out! At least i feel he is!

TRANSFORMERS CYBERVERSE SPARK ARMOR SKYBYTE

dadum, dadum, dundun dundun dundun dundun!

Review in alt!
Review 1151 TRANSFORMERS CYBERVERSE SPARK ARMOR SKYBYTE Seems like 2025 is coming to a close, and as it seems to be looking now, this will be my final figure recieved this year! And as far as I'm concerned, not a bad way to cap it off! As skybyte is a personal fav of mine, and the only representation of his cyberverse self i own is the One-Step changer. And yeah this is also a simple kid appeal toy, but unfortunately as far as im aware, the best representation hes got! All things considered, hes not a bad toy at all, simple sure, but not bad. Hes got the articulation of a beast wars basic toy, at thebsize of a modern core class toy... and an extremely simple transformation that works well enough for what it is. The main appeal of the toy is the whole spark armor gimmick, which is this little drill tank vehicle he comes with, which splits appart and plugs into various ports all over his body into weapons and armor. Which I will admit... is fucking badass actually! The proportions his armor gives him is really anime-esque and makes this simple toy feel way more dynamic than it actually is! Its a cool effect, and given the retail price, I'd say is worth the core robots simplicity... So yeah. Want a fun little shark man? This is not a bad option if you can find it cheap! Wasn't a planned purchase on my end, but im glad I went for it anyway! Because in this day and age, we all need a little whimsy in our lives!

TRANSFORMERS LEGACY PRIME KNOCKOUT

bro wishes he was the 2010 toy...

Review in alt!
Review 1150 TRANSFORMERS LEGACY KNOCKOUT So yeah... I did not care for thos guy upon his initial reveal. Much like bulkhead and breakdown and the newly revealed smokescreen, they just seemed boring compared to their original 2010 release, and there was never a repaint or special release that brought anything new to the table to warrant me buying him like bulkhead with the wreckers sublime. But here he is. Bought him as cheap as I possibly could with the $15 Walmart black Friday bundle plus my partners employee discount with a bonus wildrider to get rid of... so basically the equivalent of 5-7 dollars. And even at that price hes... fine i guess. Not as visually or physically interesting as the original. Being a retool of jazz means hes not a bad mold by any means, but lacks a lot of flare that the character is supposed to exude. Sure he articulates fine with most the basic joints your expect. Though the lack of wrists and ankles locked into place unless you move some kibble that also locks into place very tightly makes posing a little annoying. But its far from the worst thing. Unfortunately I think the best thing this toys got going for it is the alt mode! More than anything else the vehicle mode actually perfectly fits the vibe of Knockout to a t. He even has the privilege of painted yellow rims! But as a transformer, if the best thing you got going for ya is your disguise without enough going on in transformation or robot mode, fundamentally you're not doing great... Im not mad at the price I got em for, but yeah definitely DO NOT pay full price for this guy! Hes a fine deluxe and actually would make great custom fodder if you're into that. But there's way better deluxes on the market if you had to choose.

TRANSFORMERS G1 HOTROD

Shiny baby!

Review in alt!
Review 1149 TRANSFORMERS GENERATION 1 HOTROD (Reissue) Happy gift giving day yall! For those who choose to partake in any related activities today! And if not I hope you're having a good day regardless! Not much of a Christmas celebrator myself since leaving religion behind and never really being a celebratory person anyway. But regardless me and my partners still got gifts for eachother for the fun of it, and i was gifted this beautiful and glorious turbo revin young punk! Hes quite a beautiful brick, isnt he! As one of the earliest hasbro original molds unrelated to diaclone he still holds all the hallmarks of the toys of the era! With minimal articulation, only really able to moce his elbows barely 90°. Sticker detailing, a rub sign, die-cast feet, and shiny chrome on the engine and pipes! With a smooth clicky transformation thats satisfying to do every time! And the "Futuristic" alt mode is pretty cool looking too! Not as sleek as the cartoon made it out to be, not not a bad car overall with the big spoiler, and rubber wheels for maximum swooshage! Only real valid complaint I have is since he has two guns, I wish there was a spot to put both, alas hes only got one weapon port up front and the other ones just left to fuck off I guess! And unfortunately there's not much else to say about ol' hotrod here! A fine addition to the G1 shelf and a pretty display piece, but obviously compared to modern stuff you probably wouldn't get as much play value out of it! Still extremely happy to have it regardless!

TRANSFORMERS FAST ACTION BATTLERS RAMJET

Some people just need some whimsy in their lives...

Review in alt!
Review 1148 TRANSFORMERS 2007 FAST ACTION BATTLERS CLAW SLASH RAMJET A simpler toy from a simpler time. Ramjet here is a repaint of the Fast Action Battlers Starscream, as you'd expect, which that was a toy I had as a child! And while its not the same, having this simple mold again still brings me a lot of joy. And I get to have it as a new character alongside Starscream instead of just having two movie screamers on the shelf together! As a toy there's not a ton of stuff to talk about, FAB was a kids orientated toy line focusing on simple transformations and soem sort of spring loaded gimmick! In this case his right arm doesn't manually move forward, rather you pull a trigger thay swings his arm forward and then hit another button on that arm to reveal an arm blade! Which is pretty dope actually its a fun gimmick, unfortunately its hard to get him to look cool with his weapon, given his only articulation points are his shoulders, hips, knees and neck,and given how wide his body is... he just looks akward standing there. But again this was never meant to be a glorious display item! Kids were ment to swing this thing around and bash it into there other toys while screaming and shit. I know there was a voyager ramjet from the 07 Starscream mold too if that tickles your fancy, but I like this one! And surprisingly he scales well with the DOTM deluxes, which are my movie seeker choice so... works out for me! Yay!

TRANSFORMERS HUNT FOR THE DECEPTICONS HAILSTORM

Never underestimate the little guy!

Review in alt!
Review 1146 TRANSFORMERS HUNT FOR THE DECEPTICONS HAILSTORM It is Christmas of 2010, little did child me know, that would be one of the last years I'd get a bunch of transformers for Christmas, but at least it's got many bangers such as Rotf Banzaitron, RTS jazz, Seaspray, and this guy as far as I can remember, and those toys would go on to become among some of my favorite toys of all time! And this dude still is such a banger of a thing! Im absolutely in love with this short little gremlin man with big ol gorilla arms and Lil hunched over head! And while he doesn't have a ton of articulation joints, his proportions and the freedom his few joints do have makes for an incredibly fun figure to pose and fiddle around with! And the missile launchers on both shoulders really just complete the look and fun factor of the toy! Like lil bros built to shoot ya in the face and punch ya in the dick! And transformation is such a treat! Its not many steps but its got some cool features like the shoulders forming the treads and the torso accordioning out to become thin and narrow instead of short and wide, leaving the robot mode shape and vehicle mode shape completely different from eachother! And who doesn't love a good missile truck decepticon! Yeah I dont have a ton to say about this toy, but again hes an all time banger and an absolute icon of 2010's era peak transformers, and a childhood toy I'm glad to have in my life again!!!

TRANSFORMERS REVENGE OF THE FALLEN BACK ROAD BRAWL MIXMASTER

Not-so-mean not-so-green not-so-killing-machine!

Review in alt!
Review 1145 TRANSFORMERS REVENGE OF THE FALLEN MIXMASTER (Back Road Brawl version) Earlier this year I reobtained the original RoTF voyager mixmaster toy as it was a prominent and memorable toy in my childhood and also just a stellar mold that was overhated and misunderstood in my opinion! And I always wanted the green "G1" colors repaint someday but could never pull the trigger... Until now that is! Ive finally obtained him and all his green glory! And he really isnt G1 colored per say, close, but he is more doing his own thing instead my opinion as opposed tonthe legion glass Devastator repainted in G1 colors. Molds still a banger with its super detailed robot mode abd tons of joints for both posing and customizing proportions and details. And the vehicle mode is as beautiful as ever with this more toyetic color scheme over the realistic, accompanied by red safety stripes and tampographs on the wheel wells that say "ol lefty". Might be a bit of a problematic design with those plus the new headsculpt featuring a smiling and kinda weirdly friendly headsculpt. This dudes not a fighter man just wants to do his job working on site, just to go home and hug his wife! And there ain't nothing wrong with that! As one of my all-time favorite constructicon characters, 2025s been a good year for him for me collecting apparently! Three bangers in a row! Damn! Im one happy collector! This was originally released in a two pack with a "Hoist" figure which i did not get, maybe I will someday, but im more than happy just owning this guy!

TRANSFORMERS DARK OF THE MOON CYBERFIRE BUMBLEBEE

He was lighting! Before the thunder!

Review in alt!
Review 1144 TRANSFORMERS DARK OF THE MOON CYBERFIRE BUMBLEBEE I have obtained yet another of these awesome black and yellow bumblebee redecos! This one accompanied by an awesome electric flame paint job and some badass clear red eyes and windows that makes this toy stand out against a lot of others in my collection! And also im not gonna lie, this might be the best deluxe movie bumblebee mold I've handled so far! Not even joking! The studio series ones are all incredibly cheap and hollow feeling, or generally boring if not problematic. The 07 mold looks good and had that cool automorph, but the kibble and weird torso kinda kills it for me, also those shoulders flying off constantly too. But this one! Super solit all around! Not a bad transformation or backpack! No faux parts besides the usual little things! Great articulation and hand feel! And he even has the unintrusive but fun gimmicks in the line like the mechtech gun and the ports with the automatic covers! Only thing I can really fault this toy for is no 5mm hands to hold weapons with, your only option is plugging guns onto the wrists or the clips on the upper arms. But if thats his only flaw then I'd be damned to call this a bad figure by any means! Its unexpected but this late addition to my collection has made its way to being one of my favorites! And scratches a long awaited desire to have a fun toy of the movie bee design that actually keeps my attention! The DOTM toys were such good fun! Even if they didn't all age super well!
