DOTM Cyberverse Powerglide

Photobucket

Dark of the Moon - I have my eyes on this figure for a very long time. Just like the rest of the 'unique' Cyberverse figure I have collected; Powerglide is a must since he is from the G1 cartoon series. The only G1 classic that I need to collect next on my wishlist is Warpath. Well here is what I think about Powerglide.

Bio


Human pilots have traveled thousands of miles just to study the moves POWERGLIDE executes in midair. His acrobatic aerial accomplishments impress all who see them – friend and enemy alike. His skill is the only thing that has kept him alive, since his light armor makes him a soft target for his DECEPTICON foes.

When I first posted this picture in Facebook; people thought that this was the Universe/Classic 2.0 version. But the fact was this is actually the Cyberverse version. It still maintain the same livery and color like the original G1 version. To be honest, I really love A10 and I do wish to see it in the movie adaptation. It would be cool if Autobot has the upper hand in air supremacy battle against Starscream.

Powerglide maintain the looks of it G1 counterpart. It looks and feel like the original Powerglide. My only complain was the leg part as it was too skinny. The transformation process was not that hard. I don't even need the instruction manual to guide me. The only thing you need to be aware was the wings part. There are a few slide and place mechanism to ensure the wings sit properly. I love the weapon system where as the missile are combined and become one big fraggin gun (or missile). Like any Cyberverse figure, articulation is limited here. If you are a fan of G1 Powerglide; you might want to get him. Or else you can always get the Ultra Class Universe/Classic Powerglide in 3 different color combination (white/red, red and black livery).

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.
