Nice haul dude lots of goodies in there. Looking forward to your reviews :grin:

Don't do them like Peaugh just did recently with the CW Stunticons the reviews were pretty average at best.A bit disappointing.

Sorry Peaugh but our old mate Chuck did a pretty good job of reviewing Offroad today.


LOL! I kinda like peaugh's reviews. My reviews are nothing fancy to be honest. Uploading now, so any feedback is appreciated :)



I usually like Peaugh's reviews but this time he didn't go into much depth as Chuck did in his review with Offroad. Just little things like how each Stunticons hand\foot\weapon stores in their alt mode.

I will check your one's out when I get home from work :grin:


Just wait until you see how Breakdown's limb/weapon works. It's the most involved of the bunch

LOL I might be in trouble then! I finished my Breakdown review and didnt go into the weapon at all apart from connecting it in arm/leg mode! So my review will probably be as lacklustre as peaugh's! LOL!!

I picked up Alpha Bravo tonight, my first Combiner Wars fig, and he's pretty good. I find his rotor gets in the way a lot, though, the arm that it's on doesn't have a lot to do. The combiner hand/foot is okay. It makes a good foot, but I don't like the hand. It's acceptable for now, though. I'm sure the 3Ps will come up with something a little better eventually. I can't wait to find the rest now and get combining!

Video Review - Transformers Generations Combiner Wars Breakdown

Our fellow Seibertronian chuckdawg1999 has shared another Transformers Generations Combiner Wars wave 2 figure video review, and we keep to the Stunticons with Breakdowm! Check out the embedded clip below, and their thoughts, and let us know what you think in the Energon Pub.

Shakedown, Takedown, you're busted! It's Breakdown, probably one of the best known Stunticons due to its use as various Bot-Con exclusives over the years. The hip joints will take some getting used to, but once mastered pull off an ingenious leg transformation. I expect this mold to be used often in the years to come.

on alpha bravo, push the white piece up a little so the rotor is trapped between the tail fins.

I think the crab armor works the best, actually. Fills out the space and looks most like a plate of armor.

The individual bots dont look too bad, but dear god Menasor looks terrible!! The standard body proportions are just all wrong! Might have to go and look at some of those pics showing the mix and matching of the figures to see what looks best!

Try this leg configuration:

It's not the official way, the thigh/hip area is less stable as the designed pegging system is not used, but the proportions look immensely better, IMO.

Ooh, he's a goodie.
The regular release, IMO, looks better with the white than the KB version.
However if you can get your hands on either, definitely a nice score.

So when exactly will we see Air Raid and a supposed Slingshot to complete the Aerialbots?

I'm going to look for Gears and Acidstorm. They never showed up here.
Not sure if this helps where you live, but in SE Michigan, those two were effectively Meijer's exclusives starting around Thanksgiving...and already got clearanced out.

Dang, maybe I should've posted that in sightings, but I don't have a camera, and just assume I'm the last to spot anything new.

That second wave of PCC 2-packs in 2010 (Leadfoot) were the last TFs I only saw at Meijer's for a considerable time; they showed up at other stores about half a year later, IIRC. Though I wasn't canvassing discount stores then like I do now.

And my TJMarshaxxes have had jack for toys lately: nothing of note besides Construct-bots Slash (and presumably Scorn), who've otherwise only appeared (overpriced) at Kohl's.

Back on topic, I'm guessing Air Raid's going to be a tad difficult to find, with everyone buying two for an extra head to make their Firefly a tad more G1 media-accurate?

Superion is definitely better-proportioned than Menasor. Meansor's torso is too small and his legs are too long.
