Don't know if anybody else has seen them but my local Target has put them out. So far only Spider-Man, Wolverine, and Doc Ock have been released. They cost about $15. I bought Wolverine(I wanted Spider-Man but his hands are molded shut). If anybody wants I can try and put up some pictures later.

I saw the Wolverine one... I don't like how it looks though

cool, I'ev not seen them yet but they do enterest me. i shall have to go on a good old fashion toy hunt this weekend

These came out at a good time since their comics just shipped recently and they remind me of the Cybertron figures (more on that later).

For the most part, this figure has very little detail. His fingers are the most detailed. They used soft plastic on the wings that can be warped easy.

Vehicle mode:
Apparently in the Marvel Universe, giant robots don't need a good disguise because you can tell where his feet are and his hands just hang below the wings. His head sticks out the top similar to Energon Inferno. When your transforming him, you have to pull his legs down like Cybertron Scourge, and that took me a few minutes because it was in there real tight. Since the wings and legs don't have a spot to click in place, they move a bit.

Robot mode:
He looks a lot better in this mode. I counted about 26 points of articulation. Like I said in my first post, I got this one because of his hand articulation. Each finger and thumb can move on its own. His claws can be retracted half way. The right foot on mine is loose at the ankle, so his foot sometimes twists sideways a bit.

Wolverine figure:
Not much to say about this. He has one point of articulation, his neck. They did a pretty good job painting him until they had to do his face where they got sloppy. In order to get him in the cockpit, you have to squeeze his arms and legs together.

Other things:
The reason he reminds me of Cybertron figures is because he has three "key slots," one on each claw and one on his cannon. The purpose of this is for his "key" which is a long black tube with a gray end and a yellow end with a long gray button. The yellow end also has an octagonal indention with a "w". This is because Wolverine has a key in his back that you can put in there so you can turn and lock it. The key also fits in a similar spot in the cockpit, so nobody else can pilot their robots. The black tube has a spring in it that they say shouldn't be bent sharply. When you put the gray end of the tube in the claw slots and push the button the claw pops out. Push it too far and the tube pops out too. When you put it in the cannon and push the button, the tube pops out. The only way to get the cannon to shoot is to hold the tube in the slot firmly while you push the button. It also comes with a mini comic like previous transformer lines. Inside it shows what they wanted Wolverines mech to look like and they didn't really come close. And for some weird reason, at the end of the comic, you can see Ghost Rider playing a video game.

Sorry about the picture quality, I only have the camera on my phone to work with.

I was in target tyesterday when I found them, as I'm in Australia it suprised me they were on the shelves before Xmas , they are quite big but at $29.95AUD  I'm aprehenceive about them, they also look FUGLY in the pic's on the box so I was wondering if anyone has bought them and willing to review them?
The ones I've seen so far are the Spiderman,Wolverine,Doc oc

Anyone    

lmao, i was about to make a topic cuz i recently got Captain America, see pics ^^

I might get the others....  FYI, they are a hefty 14.99 at my local TRU

Cool!

Do you have any vehicle mode pics of Cap?

I bought Spiderman--er... Spidey-bot?


At first I really didn't like him. There was a big problem with his upper-leg guards being impossible to keep on...


But after a while I really stated to get over that and start to enjoy the toy.


I'll admit though there are better toys you can buy with 15 bucks...

PS. The pictures of Spiderman's spider mode on his box are mistranformed, I'll get pictures of the real thing if anyone wants.

So far i really like caps robot mode, but his alt mode leaves a lot to be desired, see for yourself.  His alt mode is suppose to be like a "blue thunder" type copter, but the robot leg kibble mess this up >

please post it, his arachnid form seemed weird, thats why i was hesitant on picking him up ><;

Anyone find Hulk yet?

KK!



Alternate Gun:


Robot Mode for good measure  :

Spidey chillin' in the cockpit:

Kind of wierd feature (why do I want to lock the backpack exactly?):

The captain america looks ok but over all I'm not impressed by them, admittedly I'll probably end up getting them, but after seing the final product I have to ask WHAT HAPPEND??!!

The original desighns look briliant but the prototypes barely resemble them, how is it possible to botch it up

the wolverine one is a classic example of a desighn translation gone wrong!

i might pick up spidey and hulk tomorow    anyways, can anybody point to where the original sketches of the mega morphs are??? i remember seeing an iron man, but i cant find it >>

BTW, they have a new comic out I found out, looks pretty neat

I'm kind of dissapointed to say the least, these figs seem "undone" compared to the concept art. Maybe I'm spoiled from GF's show acurate figs.

This is Spideys alt mode, the head has pincers molded in.



Alt mode with no weapons attached.



Alt mode with Missile Launcher attached.



Alt mode with Web Shooter attached.



Spidey looking good

OMG >< the alt mode is suppose to look like this:

http://www.hasbro.com/common/instruct/GI_J...nquest_X-30.pdf

but alas we get this ><, its disappointing to that they use the concept plane in the comics .....





The bot mode..... The face.... They messed up big time ><  its really different compared to the comics, it looks like he has eyes, with eyebrows and 4 holes on the bottom part that look like vents >







Next gallery: The HULK!

His alt mode is weird, its suppose to be a copter, similar to "Blue Thunder"  but the robot leg kibble messes this up.  So it kinda looks like a Gerwalk.







ahhh, the robot mode is great!  one flaw....you cant turn his head, so hes stuck looking in an angling down position.  gotta love the shield though ^^





BLOCK!

the iron man figure looks good

Ofcourse it looks good, it was originally meant to be the design for Transtech Starscream.

Wolverine: What the hell is hulk doing?
Hulk: GAMMA....


Hulk: CLAP!!!!!

Ghost riders bike mode, is teh worst out of everyones IMHO.  His legs are tricky to place and connect and his bot head is showing too >< 





He only has one had that has articulated fingers, his other hand is solid, so as to place his big 'ol weapon properly.



Hope you all enjoy the pics!

i must say this again:

hulk=megatron
cap am=gerwalk chopper
wolvie=something that wouldve came from tf armada
spidey=pregnant housewife w/ major cottage cheese thighs

Hey EvaTType01, do you have any trouble keeping Spidey's upper-leg sheilds on or is it just mine?

yeah i do infact ><  there a pain to keep on, sometimes I have to keep it pressed on for a good 5 seconds to stay put....but even slightly moving anything on spidey, they flip off ><  its really irritating!

This may sound odd  but Wolverine and captain america are incorrectly assembled!

The good news is that the problems can be quickley fixed 

On captain america the connecting holes for the weaponon the legs are on the outside but they were ment for the inside, the gun itself has two connection points to allow an easy innerleg connection below the cockpit , the solution , this part of the lower leg is interchangeable left/right, it will only take  5 minets to do and hay presto! the gun is where it was intended to go!

Also to note theirs a small flap under the cockpit that folds up to cover the gap below the head (just thought I'd mention it because I can't find it in the instructions)


On Wolveine the two arm wings are on the wrong arms , the small sunken edge should face out as they connect to the under-side of the cockpit wings to form a solid wing!
this means disassembling the 'claw trigger mecanisum on bouth arms and exchanging wings!

Hoepfully youre's have been correctly assembled, but then agen were talk'n TOYBIZ here!!!
good luck

I got Wolverine's metamorph this past weekend... but it was 'almost' cool.

I think that I found the problem - a lack of paint apps. I filled in the panel lines, and added some more colors to general areas that I thought needed it.

Check it out:



What do you think?

-Joe

You all let me know if I need to post more pics - it's late, and I am going to bed.

not bad, a face foreward shot would be nicer though

You got it...

more pics tonight. 

I saw these badboys at TRU on my last visit.  I was a bit underwhelmed with most of them.  The Captain America one was the coolest-looking one they had, imo.  From the pics above, I'll have to stand by my initial impression.  I am really interested to see the Iron Man one, though.  To me, lines like this never seem that promising.  Transforming should be left to the two brands that made it cool to begin with.

I could see picking up Captain America and Iron Man on clearance, though.  [Looks over at $4 clearance-bought Gundam SD figures]  Yess...

hey, thats not bad, maybe ill add paint apps to the figures.  Did you alter the head coloring?  im not sure whats happening with wolvy's head ><  in the comics, he has a visor type eyes and a faceplate.  On the toy he has 4 eyes and 4 vents??? in his mouth area?  im confused lol.  IMO, they should have just sticked with the comic version face!!

Yeah... I agree. The head looks WAY off.

Just take a look at the pic on the back of the box - I used that as a guide for the paint apps.

I wanted to change the head too... just haven't figured out how just yet.

More pics tonight!

As promised...









-Joe

I'm quite suprised how big these are, and they look pretty good as well.

Just thought I'd add some pics to help

I finally have a fix for ghostrider's mech,it's taken a while to figre out, but at least I finally know what to do with it!

iron mans the only one that interests me

Do you have any pics of the ironman one at all?

I have already seen the illustrations... but any toy pics?

I do want these guys but they look cheap as hell

The last 3 figures (Thing,Ironman,DocOc sub) have not yet surfaced and with no proto's in sight it's anyones guess if they'll be produced(I'm still waiting for the company to apologise to anyone who bought the Ghostrider piece of $h1t !!!) 

However, the Captain America one is suprisingly good with the bug fix and the Wolverine looks good when transformed correctly(privvy the wings are around the right way), but the weapon and trigger-button gimmic are annoying and best left off!
The Hulk is suprising, it's got presence and those hands are HUGE , and poseable. He may look like s brick wall in bot mode but he carries it well,and no bugs on this one and you get alot of plastic for the money!

I'll be getting the Spiderman and(*sigh)DocOc copter later myself, at least spidey looks interesing! but that copter THING(yeash) I'll get it only to make the Ghostrider mech look good

OMG, yes!  thats what i felt when i was transforming that POS!  really, i dont think they went into any effort at all on his supposedly bike mode ><;

Im hoping they produce the Thing and Iron man, i mena come on....they need to have iron man atleast ><;

wow, it sounds like these things really suck. Pity, I was going to buy one for my son. Oh well, that's money saved.

Coptor Thing? Pics?

Breake out your'e cross and holy water for this sucker
