Toy Review: Takara Tomy Transformers Unite Warriors Computron aka Computicon UW-08 2 of 2! Combiner wars UW Computron

Aloha folks, the final portion of the Computron review has arrived. After I was astounded by the individual figures, does his combine form hold up or is it a let down? Let's get started! Computing....       This guy rocks! Not only is Computron eye candy, he is built very well. He stands now, imo, the best of all the combiners released. If you read all my previous Unite Warriors review, most of the time, majority of the figures have trouble standing, Menasor being the worst of all.  You have to adjust little to none to make him sturdy.

The bad news was that it was almost a half a year wait when it was announced back in January. The bonus: Slingshot was to appear as a completed G1 team replacing IDW Alpha Bravo. I said sweet! Then around April, Hasbro released their own version of Slingshot re-named Quickslinger to the western fans. So what was the point of waiting or getting the Takara exclusive at the time? By then I had already pre-ordered Superion which was announced as a gift set. So I told myself why not wait  again since it is more G1 colored and s...
