Toy Review: Transformers Earthrise War for Cybertron WFC-E26 Thrust Review. Target Exclusive!

 

I rather get hit by Prime's cab again then take a rushed and poison vaccine.

Thrust is here! The final piece to the coneheads has arrived. How does he fare overall? Let's get started!








I liked how the box labels Cybertron Villains just as how it was featured previously on the 2 pack Skywarp and Thundercracker exclusive. Thrust is from the planet Zero. However, TFWiki says its Nexus Zero. I'm cool with that. For once, the decoder is placed on top of the box. That also explains why my lighting was being reflected on the top of the box. On the side of the box, you can see Dirge and Ramjet as silhouettes in the background. 

Standing tall











Thrust plays very nicely. He also looks great. When I first got him out of the box, one of his turbine wings popped off though it was easily put back in. He does have differences which I will get to in the comparisons later on. No waist swivel though his joints are pretty tight. He can also do some decent posing as well. His null rays can come off but I chose to leave it on for most of this review. 

Alt mode












If you are familiar with the Earthrise Seekers, then you should have little or no problems transforming Thrust into his raptor mode. The odd thing, like how TFwiki pointed out, was that the nosecone on the top part is painted completely red. He is missing his black nose cone whereas it is presented lightly in his fellow conehead brothers. His G1 cartoon or toy colors highlight his black cone as well. Dunno why this trait was left out in the ER form. Anyhow, you can also peg his weapons where ever the 5mm port is available. 

Coneheads!


















I just wanted out point out that you can bend the flaps of his waist wings/turbines. Anyhow, this is your conehead seeker team elite. Unlike the original seeker trio, the coneheads sport different physical features; mainly their wings. Of all the three, I actually like Thrust the best. His colors are vibrant and I like those turbine wings. It really makes him standout of the three.

Conclusion:


He is available for a limited time in Target. Get him online. Just pay the extra shipping to beat off the scalpers. He is possibly easier to get of the trio. I also feel he stands out the best of the trio. That is it for now. I will try to compare him with Generations Thrust somewhere down the line. Thank you and let God take control. Laters.

Transformers Earthrise Dirge and Ramjet Amazon Exclusive! Part II of II

 

                                                       

Today we have comparisons and final impressions of the Amazon Exclusives. The classic and original trio seeker comparisons will be analyzed here. Let's get started.

With the classic versions. 

































They can exchange each others weapons. I do like Classic Dirge's colors and the stickers that came with it. Though I called the ER coneheads bland, they do look like a better improvement in comparison to the classics. The classics are more easier to transform though. ER is the way to go if you still need the coneheads. 

With the Seeker Trio




























Based off of the SS mold. There are some differences such as wings, head, longer knees, and the chest area (rectangular vent and turbine). The nosecone for the original seekers are actually longer than that of the coneheads. Besides this, I don't have much to say here but the coneheads are here to complete your seeker team. One more Seeker to be released.

Final word:

A nice improvement over the classics but nothing that expresses wow though. They are exclusives so they are sought after and hard to find now. They are easy to fiddle with overall and play/transform the same as the original trio seeker. I shall leave it here. Thrust is coming soon I hope, so I can complete the conehead trio.
