MATRIX WORKSHOP M-91 Weapon Upgrade Kit For SS86 Snarl Sword Gun Shoulder missile review

Image
  Aloha folks, I am back with the final Dinobot upgrade and the final post of the year of 2025. So without further delay, here is Matrix Workshop M-91 weapon upgrade for Snarl. Lets get started! Dinobot mode So this kit comes with an extra sword, rifle, and shoulder missile; more like Tricep missile. In Dino mode, there isn't much places to store his weapons. I'm not sure why but its weird that MW did not include a 5mm tab on the side of his sword handle like how Slag had. So you can only store it vertically which also doesn't hold in place that well. His triceps become the hips in this mode so that is the only storage solution on this mode along with his back 5mm port. Use your imagination.  Robot mode.   So now Snarl can wield dual swords. The sword MW gives here fits his hands better than Sludge. It's also longer than the Hasbro one. So poor Sludge getting the weak legs from Hasbro and a hard to clasp weaponry from MW. It's nice he was finally includ...

3D DIY! 3D DIY G1 Gun Weapon Upgrade Kit For Studio Series SS86 Swoop Review

  Super Swoop Got this off Ebay. I was upgrading all my Dinobots with either missing swords or guns. In this case, Swoops gun. Without delay, here is 3D DIY G1 Gun for Swoop.    The gun fits in Swoop decently. It isn't a total fit for it is a little loose. You can pretty much peg it where ever the 5mm port. It's nicely painted and its a great fit for Swoop. Most other figures can utilize this weapon too. I said most because some like SS Ironhide gets it stuck on the tip of the gun handle. Optimus can grapple it well. Trial and error if that is your forte.  Alt mode     You can peg it where you usually peg his swords. The best place, or should had been, was behind his head. You need to swerve it a little in order for you to peg it. The example is shown on the 3rd pic in this category. Otherwise, just peg it where ever his 5mm port is.  Conclusion You can use his missiles for his gun but I like how it looks on his wings without you having to ...

Transformers Studio Series 86-26 Leader Class The The Movie 1986 Dinobot Swoop Action Figure review

  Aloha folks, I am back again with another TF review. Once again, I've been pushing myself to take these guys out of their boarded up prisons. Today is the 5th and final member of the Dinobots: Studio Series 86-26 Leader class Swoop. Without further delay, lets get started! Boxing So Swoop comes without the plastic protection. The two backdrops that comes with him is the same as Blasters. Once again, this could had been done differently. Swoop was not present in that scene. I think the Prime backdrop would been more fitting since Autobot city was devastated by the time Prime and the Dinobots arrived. Weird or lazy choice by Hasbro again. The figure comes with two swords (one is longer than the other) and his two missiles.  Me Swoop no see nothing!   I finally utilized my holder stand to do his flying poses. What can I say? Swoop is a well done figure... almost well. If anything bugs me, its his back that seems to be full of holes. Maybe they could ...
