Transformers Toys Generations Legacy Deluxe Dead End review

 

Aloha folks, I am back with another TF Review. I was on a vacation so it led to some delay on Legacy Dead Ends review. Anyhow, here he is and let's get started!

Boxing

The 4th member of the Stunticons though he is listed as the third of 5. Let us see what the figure brings.

Standing tall

By now if you had already played with Dragstrip and Wild-Rider, DE plays very similar. He handles about the same. I feel like he is the best looking of the Stunticons. You can level his shoulder wheels around head level or tricep level. My wheels did come off easy though. Not sure if it's my copy or if anyone else had this problem, but you simply place it back on if this happens. No biggie. His guns are similar to Dragstrip and Wild-rider though the color is different in areas and so is the shape of the guns... a little. He plays fine overall. 

Alt mode

Fairly easy to transform into. I ended up using the instructions at one point because I thought his head folded into his chest cavity. It turns out that you fold his head into his back which was awkward I felt. You pop open his shoulders first in order to do this. Anyhow, everything else is downhill from there. I like how you can peg his weapons and fold his tail back to give his weaponry a diagonal aim. However part of his body is so low that it feels like he could be scraping the bottom at times. That's the real bummer actually for this mode.

Menasor! or almost there!

He is almost complete. In order to split DE in two, similar to Dragstrip, use a small pin, clip tip or mini screwdriver etc... and push on to the small rectangular area on his stomach. He should split in two. The only drawback is Menasor gains weight as you plug DE on with the rest of the team. As a result, he starts falling forward. To fix this, you just got to adjust his legs a bit. His sword seriously needs to be bigger and longer.  

DE on vacation! 

White Sands National Park, New Mexico

Guadalupe National Park, Texas.

Well, he had fun. 

Conclusion

The 4th member of the team has arrived. He looks the best of the team. Just my opinion of course. He plays good. No qualms here. The Stunticons are all done nicely so far. Just waiting for Breakdown and that completes Menasor. His underbelly just poses a small problem in alt mode as it almost touches the ground. Otherwise, you are good to go!
