Shockwave


Dark of the Moon - Shockwave, either you love him or hate him. I love his wicked evil figure but hate his one liner in the movie. "OPTIMUS!" *period*. That is all he can say when he met with Optimus Prime at the Chernobyl disaster site. Evil he may be but he is one of the coolest character in Decepticon rank and the most trusted by Megatron himself. Unluckily, in the movie; instead of guarding Cybertron, he went to war with the other Decepticon (and died). But he lives forever as a toy and I really love his wicked design.

Bio

Few have ever seen SHOCKWAVE and lived. His is the hand that ensures DECEPTICON plans remain secret from the AUTOBOTS. He eliminates evidence and witnesses with brutal, emotionless efficiency. The only hints he ever leaves of his presence are smoking craters and the collapsed tunnels through which he travels.

The elusive Shockwave never transform in the movie. We all seen him traveling with his companion, The Driller. Anyway, Shockwave is some sort of a Cybertronian tank much like Megatron in the 2007 Transformers movie. My first thought that he would be a bit fat like Megatron but my expectation really failed me. He looks really amazing. He got at least 4 MechTech weapon points including one on his gun barrel. The only thing that I really hate was the hose does not fit inside the center of the body. Instead, I had to put it on one of the MechTech points on the right side. Other than that, I really had no complain or whatsoever.

His transformation mode was a breeze. Although there are few adjustment here and there, you won't be troubled by his transformation. Everything looks perfect and the only thing that really different was that he looks a bit wider. His MechTech weapon is the biggest amongst the rest. He is pose able but you have to remove the weapon hose if you want to pose with its arm. Other than that, I could say this is the most quality and most worthy voyager class in the Dark of the Moon toyline.

Generation Windblade

30 th Generation - Meet the official fan-made Transformers; Windblade. According to tfwiki.net ; she was officially revealed at the 2013 SDCC (San Diego Comic-Con) after running a few polls from fan. What I love about Windblade was she is the first Autobot female that I ever bought (Yes, I bought Airachnid from TFPrime). I think I forgot that I bought Arcee from TFPrime but sold it before I could ever review or displayed it (in this case, that does not count). Well, I really like her appearance and here is my review of her figure.

CW Powerglide

Combiner Wars - Finally a better looking Powerglide. I can't afford to buy the Classic 2.0 Powerglide; so this would be quite a nice value for your money. Basically, Powerglide is one of the G1 mini-bot (and how I wish that Beachcomber and Seaspray would be redesign). When Hasbro announce Powerglide as a legend class Combiner Wars figure; I was really excited. The new figure is the best looking Powerglide known and identical to his animation counterpart. And the best part; he transform himself into a powerful blaster for the combiners. Here is my review of him.

Construct Bots - Ironhide

Construct-Bots - This will be my first posting on Construct-Bots. I was curious on how Constuct-Bots mechanism work and how it differ from the already established Lego Bionicle/Hero Factory line and the normal Kre-O brick line. Hasbro stated that with Construct-Bots; you don't need to remove the parts to transform from one form to another. As an additional info; this Construct-Bots (CB) Ironhide is not my first CB. That would be Starscream and I will review it when the time comes. So here is my review of Ironhide.
