Review: Transformers Power of the Primes Deluxe Class Dreadwind

Hello Hero Club, this is Darkon633 and I am back with another toy review. It is amazing that Hasbro has managed to make another update to a character that was exclusive to the Japanese G1 trilogy. While Dreadwind did get released in the states the character itself made its animated apperance in Transformers: Super-God Masterforce. The toy itself is made in the original Hasbro colors, however I am personally okay with it since I actually like both the Hasbro/ Takara color schemes. Dreadwind aka Dreadwing is a major retool of Skydive…

Review: Transformers Titan Returns Leader Class Overlord

Hello Hero Club this is Darkon633 and I am back with another toy review. Before anything else I can say that it is quite “frustrating” how Hasbro and Takara decided to design Overlord. It was a expected that Takara Tomy would make their version of the figure more accurate, however sadly it didn’t turn out to be the case. With that I can personally say that I enjoy Hasbro’s take on the figure much better. Although I don’t have Sky Shadow I can understand why many fans enjoy the mold and…

Review: Transformers Siege of Cybertron Week Finale Final Thoughts & Comparisons

Hello Hero-Club this is Darkon633 and I am back with another toy review. To finish off Transformers Siege of Cybertron Week I will be comparing the various figures in this boxset along with showing my final thoughts. The overall set is 50/50 in my opinion since it includes some duds such as Thunderwing due to it only being a Titan Master and the lame Tidal Wave release. The other figures in the set in my opinion are pretty good, although it is a shame that in order to get all the…

Review: Transformers Siege of Cybertron Week Day 4 Magnus Prime

Hello Hero Club this is Darkon633 and I am back with another toy review. The final figure in the Transformers Siege of Cybertron box set is none other than Magnus Prime aka Ginrai. From what I can tell this figure is pretty much a straight on repack of the Takara Legends release so it is nice to actually get an affordable Leader Class figure based on a Takara Tomy design. The legs are a bit wonky, although it seems at least on mine it doesn’t suffer from the loose joints…

Review: Transformers Siege of Cybertron Week Day 2 Metalhawk

Hello Hero Club is this Darkon633 and continuing on with Siege of Cybertron Week we will now look at Metalhawk. It is quite interesting to see this character get an official release by Hasbro (outside of the Botcon release) especially since this character didn’t make into the original G1 Hasbro toyline. While the choice of using Triggerhappy mold makes sense it isn’t all that accurate, although it does at least work for the character. If you have the Triggerhappy mold then this figure will not have any new surprises. In…

Review: Takara Tomy Transformers Legends LG-35 Super Ginrai – スーパージンライ

Opening up 2017 is the latest addition to the Transformers Legends line, LG-35 Super Ginrai from Super-God Masterforce! This heavily retool of Leader Ultra Magnus, and modified edition of Power-Master Optimus Prime is the real deal. It is almost as if Ginrai jumped out of the show into one’s lap. The toy is splendid, but has a few shared flaws with its predecessors of the mold. Yet, these are things that maybe fixable, or overlooked by the individual collector. Now, all one needs to do is wait for the release…
