Review: Transformers Power of the Primes Deluxe Class Moonracer

Pak Hanu

Hello Hero Club, this is Darkon633 and I am back with another toy review. Power of the Primes Moonracer is actually a pleasant surprise since I actually didn’t expect to see more updates to the other female figures featured in the original Transformers animated series. Moonracer may actually end up being one of my most favorite female Transformers since both modes are sleak and pretty unique. The only major flaw I personally see with the figure is that the kibble causes some bad balancing issues, however it can be slightly remedied…

Review: Transformers Power of the Primes Deluxe Class Blackwing

Pak Hanu

Hello Hero Club, this is Darkon633 and I am back with another toy review. Looking at Dreadwind I was already shocked that Hasbro would release updates for him and Blackwing (originally called Darkwing). Now, while both characters were released during the original Transformers Generation One toyline by Hasbro as standard Powermasters, both characters are more recognizable as the Darkwings from the Takara Masterforce series. In addition, they both appeared in the original Marvel comics. Both Blackwing and Dreadwind are based on their Hasbro toy colors, so I am glad that…

Review: Transformers Power of the Primes Deluxe Class Rippersnapper

Pak Hanu

Hello Hero Club, this is Darkon633 and I am back with another toy review. With the end of the Transformers Combiner Wars line it was sad to see that the rest of the combiners would not see a release. However, after 2 years, it was amazing to see that Hasbro would be continuing to complete the final combiners that appeared in the Transformers Generation One animated series.   The first of the Abominus limbs, Rippersnapper clearly shows the line is already heading in the right direction in my opinion. The…

Review: Transformers Power of the Primes Voyager Class Dinobot Grimlock

Pak Hanu

Hello Hero Club, this is Darkon633 and I am back with another toy review. The Power of the Primes release of Dinobot Grimlock may not be the best update to the character in the Generations line, but it does do it’s job. The T-Rex mode is a bit on the small size, which may deter several fans, which is unfortunate. In my opinion I think the figure is alright and is a decent take on the Dinobot leader. In conclusion if you are fan of the Dinobots than you don’t want…

Review: Transformers Power of the Primes Legends Class Dinobot Slash

Pak Hanu

Hello Hero Club, this is Darkon633 and I am back with another toy review. I have to admit that Slash was a surprising unveil especially since she was a brand new character and also a Dinobot out of all things. It is cool to see that the Dinobot team actually has a Velociraptor now. The figure itself is actually quite nice and looks good in both of her modes. Having the figure on hand I think it would be nice to see her introduction the current comics since I think it…

Review: Transformers Power of the Primes Legends Class Beachcomber

Pak Hanu

Hello Hero Club, this is Darkon633 and I am back with another toy review. Before anything else I am quite happy that Hasbro has finally made an update to Beachcomber since there has been really no real modern updates to the character up to this point. While there was a Legends Class figure in the classics line technically it wasn’t quite a full update since it was made in the much smaller older styled legends scale. The new version of Beachcomber is pretty much what I think is a perfect update…

Review: Transformers Power of the Primes Deluxe Class Swoop

Pak Hanu

Hello Hero Club, this is Darkon633 and I am back with another toy review. It is great to see an update to Swoop especially since he is the only Dinobot I haven’t gotten in the original G1 toyline. Do the fact that the original release was quite fragile it isn’t easy to get that figure. Luckily Power of the Primes Deluxe Class Swoop does the character justice and then some. I am quite impressed that Hasbro decided to go with the blue paint scheme since they could have easily went with…

Review: Transformers Power of the Primes Deluxe Class Slug

Pak Hanu

Hello Hero Club, this is Darkon633 and I am back with another toy review. Slug is pretty much what you would want for a great update for the character. Outside of the somewhat annoying transformation and the lack of articulated horns I personally think he turned out great. It is a shame that he doesn’t have his sword, however it is nice to see any weapons at all seeing how Hasbro has been releasing figures nowadays. In conclusion it is amazing to see an actual full update to some of the…
