I didn't say I hate you. You're just no fun

I dont own a Barricade figure yet, but I'm looking to purchase one now to finish out my Movie Decepticons. The real question is, should I get the original or the Recon recolor? The Recon is the only one I've seen the past couple weeks. Which version do ya'll prefer?

i like the original one for the light mod.
the recon version looks better in robot mode though =\

To the thread's original poster:
The toy is fine. Seriously, if you don't like it, get used to it.
If we started threads every time we didn't like a toy, we'd run out of bandwith.

Deluxe Barricade looks really awesome, The Saleen police car mode is great and the robot mode looks evil!

Yes, he is hard to pose and sometimes lands on his face, and tough to transform back to car mode, having to align all the parts, but I think he's a very good toy to own.

Everybody seems to complain a lot about him, but all the deluxe line has movie accuracy problems. Or should I mention the 1976 Camaro Bummblebee with that ugly feet? enough said

I like the Deluxe Barricade, but then again its the only version of that character thus far we have gotten, so there really isn't anything to compare it to.. If a Voyager version came out and it was leaps and bounds over the deluxe design, then i'd be able to say yep, the deluxe sucks and I hate it too..actually No I wouldn't say i hated it... because really it's a toy, and plus how can I ever really and truly hate any Transformer and call myself a fan??

Nope, I guess I disagree with you.. I could never Hate a Transformer, even some of the worst ever are still a Transformer..

Gobots are also under my protection, even the Top Hat one called Tux..he can't be worse then Shortround the toilet bot and Pooh Guru..

Can't go any other way than the movie version. Recon is very kiddie-like in it's color scheme. For this reason, my son preferred Recon to my movie version. But he just likes Frenzy honestly. He got a FAB movie version and hasn't touched his Recon version since.

Don't forget Barricade comes with a neat little pop-out Frenzy figure. Like I said, I'd love a new version, but the old one is pretty darn good.

Barricade's car mode is tight, though. I dig his head sculpt too. His legs are a bit odd, but not entirely ridiculously frustrated to stand. I still have trouble doing a complete handstand on the ground for more dan 5 secs since highschool(i'm 30 now), but have developed consistency and control since then... maybe when u get older it'd be less of an issue.


Seibertron still rocks.

ok ok ok ...i know i'm stupid of getting angry about a toy .....my bad , but it's my opinion sorry if any of you guys have been pissedoff ....anyway who care!,

I hate this figure too... I sold mine on ebay - lol

lol, you could of just left him in the box if you didnt like how he looked. It shows a pic of him on the back of the box...

it's not the he look that make me hate him the car mode is very great ,it's the way it looks in root mode (too small and not enough details head,hands ,legs too loose but anyway i know hasbro cannot make him like in the movies but more quality whould be great

the figure is not acurate to the movie ,his fuc*** legs are so loose and wont stand, his head.. what a joke same **** for his hands, i think it's the worst movie deluxe figure
so if you guys think i'm wrong or think the same **** as me lets talk about it !

I'm just agreeing with this, plus his arms and legs keep falling off too.

So, is he an organic type of triple changer now?

Boxes lie...*points to the picture of voyager Ironhide*

microclone wrote:the good thing with barricade is that you can mess around with his shoulder wheel bits and give him quite different looks despite his rather limited poses

I liked that a lot about the toy. Even though the official transformation leaves them upright, I think they look a hell of a lot better folded down, so that's how I always have them.

I don't like poodles. What are we doing?
