Fall of Cybertron Starscream

Starscream FOC

Fall of Cybertron - It has been a while since I post anything. I have been busy with a lot of things lately. With works, family and almost my hunt for more collections. For your information; I am not only collecting Transformers but I do collect other stuff such as Gundam and lately Lego. But my passion for Transformers are still strong.

I have purchased Starscream a long time ago. Even before my son was born. Now here is my chances to make amendment and there is no such thing as too late. It is better now than never.

Vehicle Mode

Honestly; I prefer the vehicle mode rather than the alternate/robot mode. It looks like the Cybertron jet in the video game. My only dislike were the hollow parts on the back of the cockpit and the rocket thrust. Even the twin machine gun was a bit awkward due to it size. But other than that, it looks amazing.

Alternate Mode

He is still the same intelligent but traitorous Starscream. He may look innocents but he can stab you in the back where you least expected. Anyway, Starscream was always crazy for power. It does not matter if it is in the comic books or G1 cartoon. Anyway, his transformation was easy after a few tries. A few pegs here and there to transform into jet mode and back. I got to be honest, Starscream really looks bad ass it is not for one thing. His feet. I really hate the feet. Does not matter if it is the toyline or even the video game itself. I guess it is not that worst as the classic seekers even has a funnier flat feet.

His two machine guns can be combined into one big fraggin gun. I never thought that Starscream would be a heavy weapon class since most of the seekers has seek and run tactics. Anyway, it is quite heavy when combine. It cause difficulty in terms of posing.

Conclusion

Starscream is not a bad toy line but I do prefer other Generations toyline. If you got the extra dough; it is better to get the Takara version as it is more color accurate. There are two mold that has already been released by Hasbro and Takara. You can get Skywarp exclusively on the Takara Generations line and Thundercracker on the IDW Hasbro Generation line. Good luck on completing your seekers ace.

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.
