| As long as I'm eating, the virus disappears. Aloha folks, I am back and finally after a year, I decided to release the Allicon from his packaging. How does he fare? Let's get started! Boxing    Your boxing folks. Not into the whole map thing so not going to delve into it. The guard         Finally, let this guy out of the bag and he is.... fun to play. His tail comes detached but rest assured, he is no parts former. It's just that his tail had to be packed apart from the figure because he be too wide to fit in the box. He comes with a spear which he poses with just fine. Loads of fun on this part really. He also comes with a blade which is a part of his tail. So two weapons come with this guy. If I had to make a minor complaint it would be that the fin on his head is rubbery. It feels kinda awkward when everything else is hard plastic on this fella. I'm not too familiar with his character except this guy and his look-alike buddies were responsible for dragging off Kup and Hot Rod to prison in the 86 film to await trial for the Quints . They did appear in the series for a little bit too but it wasn't as memorable as they were showcased in the movie. And I'm being too kind here because their appearance in the movie wasn't saying much either. Remember folks, the universal greeting doesn't work on them. For those who are wondering why it took me so long to review this guy, it was only because I was waiting for the Quintesson Pit of Judgment to arrive to review the Quints and their armies all together; I got the 2nd release. The plans fell through simply because other figures came along the fray. Alligator!         There is something about his mode. It looks amazing and plays fantastic! This mode is fairly easy to transform into. You can let him stand up to make him look more like a human alligator or you can bend him downwards to give him more of a traditional Alligator look. It's already freakish that this guy could become an Alligator, and if that isn't enough, he can blast you and stab you with his weapons in this mode. Ain't that cool? It's not everyday you get to see a human Alligator-like figure chasing after you to either bite your head off or stab the living daylights out of you. If any complaint, it would just be that it looks a little peculiar to see fists sticking out on the side of his waists. Note: This mode actually reminded me of Wheel Gator aka Wheel Alligates from Megaman X (Rockman X) fame. ConclusionI love this guy. Once again, I don't really know him too well, but he is an darn good ER figure. Totally one of the better figures of this line. I didn't troop build on him unfortunately and people in the mainland of USA was lucky to get this guy dirt cheap in some wholesale/retail stores. Possibly one of the figures, like the Dinobots, where their effective replay value comes from the alt mode. If you can get this guy below 30 bucks, he is well worth the money.  |
