Barricade should not disappoint

I was dissapointed

You know, it makes me think. If you would have gotten your hands on him first, the official Seibertron Pictorial review would have been very very different. But then again, maybe you liked him because I lowered your expectations

Ooooooooh no no no no no no no. See, yes the review would have been vastly different, but your review had no impact on my enjoyment of the figure. You are probably one of 3 people I have heard total say they didn't like it. I love movie figures, I love that movie design, I love the love they put into his accessories and design, and I love his head. there is lots of paint on him, there really is, it's just all dark blue and black, which end up blending together so you don't notice it as much. Barricade is one of my favorite cons too. And this one finally did him right, and did him even better

I bet the price was a deciding factor. Because 30$ for a good but pretty standard toy IS a hard pill to swallow. That feel to not get your money's worth.

I had that effect with MP-11 Starscream. But that one hit me like a sledgehammer to the gut.

Naw man, dotm barricade is where it's at, just give him chromia's pistol, or aoe hounds pistols, and you've got an awesome figure.

this one tops him. Easily. But I never owned the DotM one, but this one beats my 1st movie one, and it looks much better. It has hands. it had proper length arms, it has the whole bad cop feel. It is amazing

[Deadput]

I thought Barricade is a decent figure but then again I pose my figures and hardly Transform them with the exceptions of some of the recent Tr figure and my fave figure Hardtop.

I hope the old scout class comes back and no I don't mean legends figures with tiny heads.

Got dotm barricade sitting on my laptop now, he's easily the 2nd best fig from that line (first being megs), he has articulated hands and wrists and captures the screen model so well, plus the paint on his face is incredible

Dude, the scout class was the frickin best, especially in the tf heyday of rotf, those scouts were amazing

[william-james88]

I honestly don't remember the other complaints

Short
Simplified
Looks nothing like cg model
0 inventiveness, no new engineering tricks

That last one applies to Berserker as well.

Basically, i find him a step back in movie figures in every way, like a simpler version of ROTF Sideswipe without the sleek silouette.

[Carnivius_Prime]

I mean, his kibble is pretty bad, especially when they could have used accordion joints to compress it, but, come on, tons (almost literal tons) of tf's just wear part of a shell on their back, it's just different now because we're being spoiled by engineering magic of late.

And you can take the back kibble off and use as a sorta shield if you want.

I honestly don't remember the other complaints, but, he looks cool and fun, that's literally all I need in a tf

Yeah I'm still undecedied whether I like this one or his DotM toy better but they're such different designs for him I can't choose. Both are fun figures. I find the DotM more interesting in design and transformation but the TLK figure just cos he looks cool and I really like his assortment of weapons.

Shia, is that you?

The Tiny Turbo Changers are becoming a surprising highlight of The last Knight toyline. It could be because they are one of the only classes to be made up of completely new molds and designs and quite a good value for only $3 USD a piece, compared to other collectable toys at that pricepoint that usually lack articulation and the ability to transform.

For fans of this line, you will all be happy with this first look at series 2 which includes some new characters, designs and transformations.

The entire line up was revealed in an Argos Catalogue for the Transformers:The Last Kngiht toyline, which TFW2005 user Galva Prime posted. The line up has:

Hot Rod (the very first official Movie Hot Rod Toy revealed from Hasbro)
Barricade
Green Redeco of Blackout
Blue Redeco of Starscream
Cogman
Autobot Sqweeks
Optimus Prime
Bumblebee
Megatron
Shockwave
Decepticon Berserker
Autobot Drift

There are also Leaders Optimus Prime and Megatron pictured with the price they will be sold at, which is £64.99.

[Kurona]

Dear GOD do I want that Sqweeks! I'd love for them to start doing these for Generations and whatever follows RiD too; these look so fun!

[bacem]

that squeeks is adorable i want him! also, if these turbo changer line is successful, hasbro might do the same thing with other line too, like rid or g1 based design, which is very warm welcomed by me.

[-Kanrabat-]

Oh hell yes, more tiny TFs!

I'm being addicted to these things.

[leokearon]

Same here, I only bought one at first just to see what they were like and now I have 4 of them and I might get more. Great to see these are continuing

[Carnivius_Prime]

£64.99 for frickin' Leader class? Holy crap... Used to be £39.99 then went up slightly to £44.99 and Titans ones were £49.99 but come on, £64.99???


THe Tiny Turbos are cute.

[Evil Eye]

I'd love that Voyager Prime in Nemesis colours, partly because I think it would look awesome, partly because I need a Nemesis Prime of some description, but mostly because, with that truck mode, it'd make a pretty neat Destructicon Scourge!

Was gonna mention that Titans Voyager fits that bill but it's only a japanese exclusive thingy I seem to recall.

[-Kanrabat-]

It's guarantee at one billion percent that there will be a "Nemesis Prime / Scourge" redeco of TLK voyager Optimus in the near future.

All you have to do is wait.

EXTRA WEAPON STORAGE FOR TLK BARRICADE

I never saw this in any reviews nor seen it discussed here before. We all know about Barricade's "riot shield" secret feature. We also know that the pistol and baton can store under the car. But appart doing that below, how to deal with the "gatling gun bracelet"?



With all that space left due to shellforming, how about INSIDE?





As you can see, everything fil perfectly without forcing anything. Just put the gatling gun in open position on the legs like so. No pegging, no forcing, just let it rest there.




Only thing left is to clip the rooftop in place and there you go. The gun don't even rattle inside.

At first glance, Barricade is a pretty standard toy. But secret features keep popping up! Any others left?
