Hey guys!
I bet no one saw this coming, a Transformers review!
It's my first Transformers figure in years, and I really mean yeeeaaaaaaaars...
Believe it or not, I'm a huge a Transformers fan, the old school version at least. I like the Michael Bay movies but it's not something I would watch over and over again..
It was just mostly special effects anyway and the robots look really complex and far from their original designs. Sure it's to advertise cars and modernizing things but meh.. Nothing beats the classics.
That's why my "growing" TF collection would be mostly likely designs from G1 and G2.. For now :D I do want to collect the Masterpiece series but they're helluva expensive so I might just pick the ones I really really like.
To start my collection, I present Thundercracker! One of the original Seeker jets! I saw this guy at a local toy store and not the hobby store I usually go to. I wanted to check the prices in a usual toy store first then compare it to my favorite hobby store. While browsing, I saw this guy and immediately fell in love XD
It's like the nostalgia pulled me towards it. I saw it from a far and having doubts if I should buy it.. It was on sale after all XD
Let's get it on with the review!
*I might have a different format for TF reviews than my usual Gunpla reviews*
Packaging:
This figure is brought to us by Hasbro, and long running toy company. I don't really know the difference between Hasbro and Takara versions XD
This is a Legends class, which means it's a pretty small figure but can still do the Transformation no problem :D
I dunno why he's not packed properly, because one of his guns is not positioned properly XD I searched the net, and they're all packed that way :))
It has the usual warning signs and the level of difficulty for transforming this guy, in this case, it's level 2 which is fairly easy that you don't even need instructions but they still included them :D
Overall nice packaging for something so small.
