Happy 400th post: Transformers Studio Series 86 31 Optimus Prime Review!

  Aloha folks, welcome to the 400th post of this blog and today's feature is none other than the Autobot leader Studio series 86 Optimus Prime. Without delay, let's get started! Boxing and Contents You get this nice artwork of OP springing into action after he runs over Thrust and Shrapnel. You get a backdrop of this scene and you get the weapon/laser/blast effects along with his trailer, roller, drone and the awesome looking rifle of his. Figure also included.  "Our Leader is back"  Initially, I wasn't too impressed with how the internet displayed his window colors. It look like the typical light blue we've been introduced to countless of times. Now having the figure up close, I like the darker metallic blue the figure displays. I wasn't a big fan of his white color thighs as I usually deal with his grey colored adaptations, but I got used to it. You get his battle axe from his More than Meets the Eye episode so that is ...

Transformers Legacy United Cosmos review

At long last, after a year of no Transformer toy review. A Transformer has crash landed amid this blog: Transformers Legacy United Cosmos! Box Art and Contents I thought it was hilarious his gun and flag came in a sandwich like wrapper. That's a nice side panel design though I have no idea who most of those Transformers are. Standing Tall   Cosmos is a thing of a beauty. Nicely designed and well handled. Poses very well. Has a waist swivel surprisingly. Honestly, from the first glance, it didn't look like he had one. Cosmos is probably the first TF that you will have fun posing him with a flag rather than a war weapon.  UFO Also probably the only Transformer in history to have a somewhat awkward mode: UFO style! Not complaining. You were probably sick and tired of playing with all those cars and planes at this point right? Any how,  you can see that he is the size of your palm roughly. Fairly easy transformation mode that my nephew could do it wi...

Transformers Legacy United Gears pics and review

  Aloha folks, I am back with another TF review. This time it is Legacy United Gears. I had him a while back but I opened him up last month when I was on my trip to the Big Island of Hawaii but never had the time to complete the pics, editing, and review until now. Without further delay, let's get started! Boxing I'm not sure why his chest piece comes separate. I thought it was possibly to prevent theft as Transformers wiki seems to feel the same way. You can't use it as a shield or anything but it is used as a homage to which I get to in the next category. Gears comes tied in a generic backdrop Hasbro tend to use these days in which I tend to toss afterwards. If it was done in the 86 studio series caliber, I definitely keep it. Comes with his blaster as well.  Gears ( Big Island of Hawaii hotel pics)     So this is the figure in a jiff. I always thought he looked like some kind of cog like machine probably hence the name Gears. I found it awkward at fi...
