One big, bad, brutal wheel-bucket excavator, with a neat Drillbit and a heck of a robot mode...or two. Transformers Cybertron Metroplex!
-
Todays' review is a bit of an oddity. It is the promised look at my proper Victory Decepticons display now that Deathsaurus has been properly added. I think it includes versions of every single Victory con now, some of course being customs. Speaking of which, I also compare three Liokaiser torso options, strength and weaknesses. Might help some other customizers doing him. -
Transformers Energon's answer to Devastator was the peculiar but intriguing Constructicon Maximus made up of, you guessed it, the Contruction Team, with Steamhammer, Sledge, Duststorm, Wideload and Bonecrusher (No, not THAT Bonecrusher, or the other one,lol)
-
Following from last week's Burticus Maximus review, we delve next into Transformers Energon Superion Maximus. While a wild take on the Autobot airplane combiner we usually know of from the Aerialbots, this time we have the Air Team with Storm Jet, Sky Shadow, Terradive, Treadshot and Windrazor...wild.

The latest reuse/remold of the Transformers Studio Series Junkion motorcycle mold is Scrapheap. His transformation is a little different but the real story is the remolded chest. On my copy, it is almost an impossible bear to navigate. That said, once managed, both modes look terrific and the joints are tight.

It's finally time to look at EVERYTHING Haslab Deathsaurus - compared to my custom combiner version of him, FansProject Dinoking and Victory Saber, micromasters, chest minions, accessories, throne and the whole kitchen sink! I also finally get to answer was he worth it? The answer surprised me!
-
Today I look at the Transformers Legacy United captain of the Tidal Wave and leader of the villainous pirate clan known as the Star Seekers, Thundertron himself!!
-
Transformers Legacy United keeps the creativity up with the rockin' and rollin' trike made of lava and stone named Bouldercrash! At first, I was put off by the post on the back and worried about it's effects. BUT...as it turns out, it's not obtrusive at all and serves a neat accessory storage function. He's actually really grown on me!
-
As a big fan of Beast Wars, it's refreshing to see a little love for Beast Wars 2, not only with the Lio Convoy in evolution but now the very interesting Tasmania Kid in Transformers Legacy United! Some call him Snarl, as well. Take your pick for this core class who is a true blue legends scaled offering in every sense of the word!
-
Transformers Legacy United Magneous is a departure to the bots we know and love, but, man, he is magnificent!
-
I wasn't sure if I wanted Transformers Legacy United Rescue Bots Chase, but after a couple of conversations where folks saw a Lockdown in this mold, I wanted to check it out. Love the look, love the leg transformation, but them shoulders...are...not great.
-
Huge shout out to Ultra Megatronus for the early Christmas gift. Wheeljack is my guy but wasn't sure how I'd feel about the Bumblebee movie version. He sure captures the look of the character...then I got to that transformation...WILDLY excellent.
-
This time I look at a real oddity of a legends Starscream. I'm unsure which particular version I have as this guy have several variants and was released multiple times from 2010 to 2017; from RtS to Chronicles, EZ Collection to being a dollar store release!
-
As if the Studio Series 86 Dinobots aren't already impressive, enter the latest two upgrade kits for Snarl from Matrix Workshop and Tim heada. Only serves to make this dude beefier and more bombastic!
-
I had never planned to look at the Transformers Studio Series Bumblebee Movie core class Shockwave, but here we are. This is awful for the Canadian MSRP of basically 20 bucks, taxes in, but for 4 bucks CAD at a dollar store? Sure. He scores...fine but I expect more and better from such a classic character.
-
I have spent some time reviewing many a KO Beast Wars offerings and saved the wildly unexpected best for last with, get this, of all characters, K-9...go figure!
-
Here's an oddball look at a KO Beast Wars T-Wrecks. I compare him to the original Megatron mold from the late 90's to see what was retained and what was lost. Even more odd is this character in fiction, I mean, leader of the "new" Dinobots...weird.
-
I look at the last of the Beast Wars Neo knock offs with the resident Maximal horse - Mach Kick! Dude is definitely a mixed bag and while recognizable, there sure were a few liberties taken with the interpretation of the original mold, lol.
-
Though Transformers Earthspark Nightshade isn't quite perfect, I do find myself smitten with the wide range of articulation, the metallic emeral-esque paint and regal owl alt mode!
-
I reviewed the original RiD 2015 Strongarm (on loan) awhile ago. Somehow, this was a character I kept missing myself so I was pumped for this addition. Sure, lower body is more of the same but the upper body is quite different.
-
Junk, garbage, Detritus...Legacy Evolution Detritus, that is. The logical pre-use of the highly-anticipated Buzzworthy Bumblebee Studio Series 86 earth mode Hound mold. I compare it to the Classics Hound and Siege Hot Shot too. It just so happens that this also works terrifically well for the Junkion merc seeking to overthrow Wreck-Gar!
-
For life? Volvo is known for being built for safety, and the Autobot leader Optimus Prime is about as safe as I can think of. Herein, we compare the VNR 300 Optimus to the Earthrise version!
-
A look at the new Transformers Legacy Evolution Medix, a Walgreen's exclusive in the US and Gamestop in Canada. I was super concerned as the chest of my Crankcase just plain doesn't work or stay tabbed. Maybe this dud will be more lucky!

After Devcon, here's an off-the-wall-take on his buddy, Smokescreen...sorta...but way of the Cybertron Smokescreen, a body-type maybe best known for Crosswise. But Smokescreen is not only an homage to his G1 self but to another character as well!
