Repaints are inescapable. However, once in awhile a repaint that makes sense comes around. With PCC only being out 2mos, and many more repaints more than likely coming down the line, one so far has stood out in many people's minds. We feature that commander, Windburn, in this review.

Meh. I liked Searchlite better. The gold is what throws it off for me, I just dont care for gold period. That and I dont care for red and green anywhere near each other. But thats just me. I do like the new paint apps on the heads tho. His 'regular' head now looks like he has some kind of thick mutton chops going on and thats just cool.

I dont know who Orion is, but I was going to say he kind of had a superhero flavor going on. Just cant put my finger on it.

The new paint really makes this figure pop and he looks good with the Combaticon drones.

Looks good, and the luck ive been having with the new PCC's i picked up has turned me to like them, like i previously did before buying a bad batch. Sledge and Icepick are my faves, and i DEFO like the wave 2 5 pack drones for arms/legs the best. I stashed a Bombshock (only one left in town, you were right aboyut that figure being hot Lord Onslaught. Just took a little more time here) behind some big skateboards and just got a new apartment so im picking him up on monday and hoping for a better drones that lock on to his attachment parts.

 

This guy looks aces and TONS better then Searchlight, which i passed on, so i'll probably pick him up.

 

Now for the Dinobots and Constructicons. :D

Bomb Shock doesn't look that good in his single mode, but when combined, you got a definite ass kicker. And probably the most popular of the PCC combiners. But I think Crankcase might give him a run for the best of the bunch

    • Please tell me this won't be the only release of TFP Cliffjumper...
    • If you've not had your fill of Transformers collaborative news today, here is some more with a leaked product listing for the Project Knight: Transformers X Knight Rider crossover. We've been dreaming of this one, and it appears a transforming K.I.T.T. will be coming as soon as August! It must be something big and or special with a $49. - Read the Full News Story
    • Tonight on GotBot Goes Live, we talked Transformers news for the newest multipack and some reissues. We also talked collaboratives with TMNT, an Ectotron reissue and, maybe, even Star Wars? Plus, we address the MP Ginrai teaser image and answer who is Riggorus?  
    • EDIT 2: Okay, I think my real problem with this was the marketing image. The main image shows four robot turtles standing together, so I was ready for four toys, not one. Admittedly, I was so disappointed that I did not bother to read the article fully. That's my fault. I apologize. That said, now that I understand it is THE van that turns into a robot, not "robot versions of the four turtles," that makes more sense, but I don't get the four heads. There are images here of a bandana free head which I gather is not included. I would actually prefer a non-specific generic turtle head for the robot. I think that would remove a lot of confusion. At least for me. EDIT 1: My bad, I misunderstood. It's one toy with swappable heads. So, you made a thing based on a four member team, and you only want to sell one toy? You're not even trying to get people to "Collect all FOUR!" You do understand how toy sales work, right? Original Comment: This is a perfectly fine idea executed TERRIBLY. You made four unique toys, each specific to each of the Ninja Turtles, that all turn into the same vehicle? It would be one thing if they joined together to form the van. There have been transformer sets like that before. This is just wasted opportunity. Not to mention, that van exists for the turtles to ride in together as a team, so if they can turn into vehicles ... what do they need a van for? I get that that's their van, and that's cute and all, but ... this is just dumb and disappointing. Why not think about what kind of car each of them would drive based on their personalities, or ask some car company if they want to do a tie-in promotional? What do I want with four copies of the same van and no one to ride in any of them? It makes no sense.
