Transformers War for Cybertron Earthrise WFC-E9 & E29 Starscream and Thundercracker/Skywarp Target exclusive review! Part I of II


Here they are, the hard to find seekers of Target; minus Starscream that is. This will be part I as I will make final judgments on part II. Let's take a look at them and let's get started.

Boxing:

 


 


 


 


I decided to shoot Starscream and his posse as soon as I got them. It took me a while to get them out of the box. But here they are none-the-less. I'm still not familiar with the locations they derive from  but I shot it for your viewing pleasure anyways.

The trio for you. No waist swivel as some fans pointed. Kinda of a bummer. I really dig Skywarp's paint scheme. Thundercracker looks the blandest in comparison but he still looks good here. I love Starscreams colors as well. The seekers look more like their cartoon counterparts overall. The trio performs decent poses as well. I do like their null-rays they got in this version, but I know some people would prefer a more slimmer version. Can't win em all. Oh, who can forget Skywarp's mouth.

This mode was actually a little difficult for me to transform into at first. It took me a while to figure it out without looking at the manual. I finally got it transformed none-the-less. You get your raptor fighting jets. They look nice and they have 5 mm ports all over the figures. You can peg other weapons like I did just for fun providing they fit. I thought Galvatron's cannon would look great here. Thundercrackers pics showcase where you can plug your weapons. Use your imagination.

I dunno if it's just mines, but for me Skywarp's transformation was fine. Thundercracker's left wing though wouldn't stay pegged in. I know some people were complaining of TC's wing being floppy or something similar but the peg issue was that of a minor annoyance. Starscream's right wing for me kept popping off every time you try to put it in place. It pops back in like easy peasy but it's a little annoying when that happens still.

Conclusion for now... 

I will be back with the finale to sum up how I feel about these guys. I will do some comparison shots with the classic seekers. Until then...
