Countdown to girls day 2 of 5: Takara Tomy Transformers Legends Windblade LG62 Targetmaster review




Hello and welcome, today we have the famous Windblade on the countdown to girls day part II. Without haste, let's get started.

Box and Content




 


 


 





First off, Windblade is G1 through comic continuity and of the latest Generations timeline. I was mainly exposed to her due to her appearance in the Combiner Wars/Titans Return/Power of the Primes cartoon shorts. The Japanese version however retcons all this and makes her G1 overall due to her combining with Nijika from season 3. The comic explains also how she became a targetmaster. Here is the link:

Alt mode (with Headmaster)

 


 


 

Flash photography was used for some of these pics and they came out fairly well. I forgot to flip the turbines for this mode but I did shoot one pic of the turbines facing the way they are supposed to. Later on for this part. Also, transformation back and forth was very easy; Windblade is probably the easiest figure in this line to transform to robot mode and back. The shiny white nosecone is a nice touch as well. 

Pinpointer Targetmaster

 


 


 


 


Landing gear
Easy to play and transform but his head swivels in coordination with his waist. Basically, his waist swivel controls his head movement. Very awkward.

Countdown to Girls' day 1 of 5: Legends Arcee LG-10 revisit




Girls day is coming soon and I decided to revisit and review TF female figures and upcoming ones. First up is Arcee whom I reviewed back in 2015. Click on the link below to see my review on Arcee. As of today, head is still loose but very nice and easy to play with. Nice homage to the G1 Arcee.

Transformers War for Cybertron Siege S9 Hound review




That was fast. Here I bring to you another WFC review: Hound! Without further delay, let's get started!  I'm not a big fan of using high ISO, but I guess due to my dark surroundings, I had to use it for most of the pics.. The results were mixed as some of the pics still came out soft.

Packaging, box and artwork.

 


 





The typical WFC boxing and emblems. Let em loose from the cage.

Robot mode

 


 


 


 


 


 


 


Hound is looking like Hound. His battle damage WFC moniker is on his shins and some part of his grill area near his abdomen. His rifle is very neat looking and can combine with his mini shoulder cannon. I love how the circular attachment gives the rifle a sniper like feel. The only drawback is that it comes off very easily at times. Either way, Hound looks great and very reminiscent of his G1 look. Remember to plug weapons anywhere with the pegs.






With Cog

 


 


 

Like WFC Sideswipe, use your imagination. Cog works fine with Hound though Hound's back moves a lot so it takes some time to peg things in. No biggie though. Have fun.
