Tailpipe and Pinpointer with Sergeant Noble

Dark of the Moon - Sorry guys, I promised you that I would update my blog as soon as possible but I was too busy with everything lately. I bought this figure along with DOTM Mudflap (in which I will review it later). I was interested with this figure as it is really different than the rest of the DOTM Human Alliance toyline. Why? You might ask me that this is the first DOTM Human Alliance that came with a Targetmaster.

Bio

TAILPIPE and PINPOINTER have been partners for ages, and have learned to love roughing it. Teamed up with Sergeant Noble, a soldier that has spent his career in the wildest places on Earth, they make an unstoppable fighting team deep in the trackless wilderness.

Vehicle Mode

The vehicle mode is TOTALLY AWESOME! I love two wheels Transformers. It brings the complexity and the differences from the rest of the crowd. It also reminds me of Kamen Rider and the Power Ranger. Pinponter can mounted on the rear of Tailpipe as a mounted gun making it more aggressive. The only thing that really disappoint me was that the vehicle is huge for a human like Sergeant Noble to ride on top of it. But I won't complain much as most probably the driving is done by Tailpipe instead of a human rider.

Alternate Mode

I love the thoughts of 3 for the price of 1. Anyway, you got two Autobot and one human alliance. I love the armor clothing and the helmet of Sergeant Noble. But his eye really freaks me out. The transformation process of Tailpipe was a bit complex as it has some minor adjustment particularly on the wheels part. Pinpointer transformation was a brezze. He is the biggest Targetmaster I ever had. He even overshadowed Cyclonus's Nightstick. The only problem I had was Pinpointer was really heavy for Tailpipe to carry as his weapon. Too heavy. And like any other scout figure, Tailpipe has not much of an articulation.

Weapon Mode

Like the rest of the DOTM Human Alliance figure, this one is also a heavy one. Only a leader class figure can really carry this one as a weapon mode (I really miss the Energon era). But it does looks really cool. Felt like wanting to cut someone grass on someone else backyard. Anyway, if you looking for a cool DOTM Human Alliance figure, then I would suggest this. It is really worth your money.
