The Titan Force set box is really nice looking, featuring an embossed front and back. The instructions unfortunately are printed on paper, which is fine, but the print is shrunk down and combined with the dark colors, ends up hard to read. Windblade is a vast improvement over the Generations version of the mold, and I personally like the blue and gray color scheme. If you're looking for the retail release I'd go with the Takara version, which is closer to the animation design.

Ah yes, when Summer feels the hottest it's time once again for SDCC. With the lines for panels filled with A list celebrities who want to be anywhere else, showing trailers that are just slightly more than a title card, are even longer lines for baubles and trinkets in pretty packaging that drives up the price almost 100% over retail. The Titan Force set from Hasbro features an orange sherbet version of Sentinel Prime, and the first release of Deluxe Brainstorm. Prime is Prime, only more translucent. Brainstorm is an extensive remold of Deluxe Blurr. Brainstorm will be available at Walgreens at some point, but in a different deco.

It's nice to know that even in 2016 collectors can still be surprised. No one knew that Ratchet would be getting a One-Step figure until it showed up on some etailer websites. Ratchet is a retool of the previously released Weaponizer Strongarm so it's a solid mold, but it suffers from balance issues when you try to have it hold a Minicon. Bisk is an all new mold and is the best version of Bisk we've gotten thus far. Unfortunately Bisk has no easily identifiable way to hold a weapon Minicon, if it's meant to at all. Overall these are fine additions to the RID line and make for great desk toys.

Leave it to Takara to step up and provide a figure most fans want. Blast Off is an all new mold that completes a vintage style Combaticon team. Transformation is smooth and features the best weapon integration I've seen thus far. If you waited to get the Combaticons like I did, this figure, and the set, is worth the pick up.

I finally got this set. Was it worth the wait?? Let's find out.

Here it is. I finally have more than one figure from this line.
