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.

Transformers Buzzworthy Bumblebee Studio Series 86 13 Cliffjumper Deluxe review

  Aloha folks, I am back after a small Christmas break. This time I got Buzzworthy Bumblebee Cliffjumper 86 on review.

He was a very difficult figure to obtain initially as a Target exclusive. All of a sudden, this guy starts appearing in discount stores all over the mainland USA. Now he appears in Amazon.com for the same $23 retail price. I figure why not. Box looks gratifying. Love his side panel artworks where CJ is springing into battle and the opposite end looks like something of a 3-d comic. I won't name the robots but I think you can figure them out if you are a G1 fan. The backdrop included is pretty much the same as Jazz...
