 Aloha, folks I am back with a Studio Series review and it is none other than Studio Series 86 Bumblebee. How does he fare? Let's get started. Boxing  I kinda missed having backdrops which the newer releases tend to eschew. His backdrop portrays the insides of Unicron.  Bumblebee One of the survivors of the original 1984-85 line that made it into the 3rd season and eventually being modified to Goldbug. Here is another iteration of Bumblebee. I say this because it wasn't too long before his Netflix version was released. However, that version had a more mustard orange look to him. This BB looks more yellow to his toon model. To make matters a little better, he is not a partsformer like the NF version was; his back was detachable but this one its a plain square like model. It looks a little too plain looking unfortunately. Speaking of squares, this BB feels squarish. He is a little too squarish for my taste. Especially that chest of his. Its stretched out a lit...

Transformers Toys Studio Series Core The The Movie Steeljaw

After a long wait, today I finally opened up Core class Studio Series 86 SteelJaw. How does he fare? Let's get started! Boxing Wow. So I was upset at 86 Blasters backdrop being the scene where Ultra Magnus rallies the troops. SteelJaw has the communication tower backdrop that Blaster should have had as well! Man, way to go Hasbro. What were you thinking?  SteelJaw Here is SteelJaw in the flesh. I could probably say it was around here where the cassettes started to not look like cassettes. This was released back in 2024 but I held off opening SJ until now. SJ transforms to cassette mode to robot mode and back fairly easy. His head needs to be pegged together so as a result there is no toggling with his mouth. It stays open. You can rotate his hip guns to give him some style since the guns can get camouflaged easily with all that yellow despite the fact its more bronze looking.  And then there is his detachable back. I think this is the idea that paved way for t...

Transformers Studio Series The The Movie Thundercracker Voyager Class

  Aloha Folks, I am back with another TF review and that is Studio Series Thunder Cracker who appeared roughly the same time I was doing my Soundwave shoot. It wasn't supposed to drop for another month according to Amazon, but alas, he showed up just like that. How does this $42 dollar figure hold up? Let's find out and lets get started! Boxing Here's the boxart and description of him in the movie. You get the pic of him, Skywarp, and the Insecticons about to be tossed off Astrotrain but the narrative states he is going into battle for Megatron. I guess it forgot to add, this is what happens when you lose a voting contest. Instead of Autobot city destroyed like how you saw in the Soundwave and Windcharger boxes, you see the hole in the interior of the Autobot Shuttle depiction. And as usual, you get a generic blue backdrop. I ended up using Soundwave's backdrop since it was a little wider and taller. Thundercracker   So finally we have an update of the see...
