Skyburst with The Aerialbots

Photobucket

Power Core Combiners - My first review on the mighty Power Core Combiners. For your information, I bought both Skyburst and Bombshock at a reasonable price at Bebeland Kiulap. I have known that this figures has been around the shelves for a very quite a long time. But it was because of Leadfoot, that lead me in buying the 5 pack Power Core Combiners.

Bio

To be given command of one of the first AUTOBOT® Power Core teams is a great honor – one that SKYBURST isn’t sure he deserves. He uses his enhanced abilities to execute search and rescue operations in conditions too dangerous for human crews – or even other AUTOBOTS®. Together with his drone companions, SKYBURST protects the skies from the DECEPTICON® threat.

This Power Core Combiners are consist of a Commander and 4 vehicle or animal drones. Different than Energon Superion or Bruticus Maximus; these drone CANNOT transform into robot mode (that is why they are called 'drone'). These drones are consist of: Recon Plane Drone, Chopper Drone, Combat Helicopter Drone and Fighter Jet Drone figures.

Alternate Mode (Commander)

Skyburst transformation was not that hard. The legs part is hooked to the inside back of its body. So you will need to be careful on that. Like any Power Core Combiners figure, Skyburtst seems to have a bit of loose parts especially the power core module (the blue parts where you combine the drones).

Commander Mode

Transforming into Commander Mode will take some time. This because the upper chest is the hardest part. You need to hide the original head and put the hands part to become the chest part (sound confusing? You will get it if you read the manual carefully). The leg parts is always very loose. This is because the Fighter Jet Dron is very hard to stand on flat surface. You need to adjust it a bit so it will land his feet nicely. At least, Skyburst is one of the coolest Power Core Combiners (compared to Double Clutch and The Rallybots). With his air supremacy, he can call on an airstrike with his team - anywhere.. anytime.

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.

Expressive Art Convention Brunei - Gundam Exhibition

EACon Brunei - Honestly, I am not a big fan of Gundam. But I do love the creative things that some collectors are willing to do beyond the stock paint and decal. Some are very quite amazing compared to the normal stock version. The ability to customized a Gundam model (or GunPla) is beyond imagination and limitless compared to a Transformers figure. Well just look at the pictures and judge it by yourself (Pictures make take a while to load, so please be patient).
