Generations - The most obnoxious Autobot and yet the most powerful. In the G1 animation; I really love how he battles Blitzwing in a tank battle. I really hate him when he shout out his famous quote "Blam! Boom! Pow". And did you know that he is the king of Transformers pun? He did said to Blitzwing; quote "Hey, Blitzwing! Tank you!". Anyway; after a few decades since the G1, fans does miss him. The only mold that you get that were close as the G1 was the legend class Warpath (2009).
Bio
Wherever the fight is, that's where Warpath wants to be. His super heavy armor and powerful weapons mean he doesn't have to worry about things like orders or tactics. He just heads straight for wherever the fighting is heaviest, pouring fire into the enemy, and hoping there's someone left standing to give him a good fight when he gets there.
Vehicle Mode
I love the tank mode. So modern looking and beautiful. I love that he still maintain his G1 color. The only thing I really dislike was the missile pod. The missile are so long and for most of the photoshoot; I left it behind. There is a reference to the G1. Look at that K4-90W or in other words KAPOW. But on the other side; I really don't get it. ZOWEE, I guess?
Robot Mode
I really like his robot form. So much going on and really detailed. His transformation was confusing at first try (yes, I love to transform without the instruction manual). My only difficulties was the parts that hides the shoulder parts. His head sculpt is really menacing and gentle at the same time (depending on your view). His cannon can be shorten to his chest; making his looks more nice and legit. The feet may be disturbing for some of you but I do not mind at all. My other concern was his lack of weapon (but I think he already pack a cannon on his chest and an artillery of missles on his both shoulder).
Conclusion
As a G1 enthusiast; I really love Warpath mold. So fresh and a very good design. When Hasbro is hardworking; they can make beautiful masterpiece. This figure is a very good figure to get and you will not be disappointed. Here is an added bonus picture to show him and the rest of the Decepticon (I have to put Blitzwing, Bludegeon and Guzzle aside as their tank mode cannot fit this picture).
