The "Ultimate" Transformers Review Thread

I have made some changes to the thread I was working on previous, and I've been trying to fix as much as I could so I could have the "Ultimate" Review thread. So what I've come up with is pretty cool..without actually having a website..
But I think that this will be very entertaining to say the least..Work is still in Progress, so please be patient..I have more to upload as they are being finished.. which will be posted as I go..

This is a compilation of review information, so it's pretty in depth..Since it's the beginning of the Unicron Saga, it's got to start with Armada..so without further ado..

Note: I have tons more that I've already completed, its just a matter of cleaning up the images so I can upload them for viewing...Please feel free to copy the review if you like, it's free for everyone to download or print off.. :grin:

Part 1:

All you need is Adobe Acrobat to view this fine review of Armada Optimus Prime!!


ok so that was only the first half of the review.. there is soooo much more for this one character. I have the Powerlink color variation and the Magna Convoy DX as well.. already done.. I just need to convert them, Phew.. took me awhile..

I know it looks like I'm giving alot of love to Armada Optimus Prime, and yes in some ways I am, but wait until you see what I'm gonna do for Cybertron Optimus Prime!!!

I may do an update on reviews like this once or twice a month..just depends on my schedule, the amount of information I have to compile, and the variations in color.. though if they were used in different series, I may critique them in that particualr section... All in all I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out thus far.. Enjoy!! :grin:

Arrgh small and blurry text hurt my eyes! Perhaps you could make it into a PDF? Assuming you make it in a word program you can make it into a PDF using this: http://www.primopdf.com/

I look forward to having a proper read, opinions to follow!

The best part is how I was right about Armada, Armada Prime, and liking these shows for what they are.

It's always my favorite part...when I'm right. :grin:

Don't be sooo Smug!!:P

But your right.. I saw some episodes last night on youtube, especially the "mortal Combat" episode.. it was pretty cool.. so I like the toy more now then ever!!!


On a side note, how the heck do i upload a PDF file to an image hosting site that you guys can link to without having my image and text shrunken like on photobucket???

The text isn't blurry for me but it would be nicer if they were in PDF format so you could zoom in on them in a browser.

good review SW2. One thing I would do however is double check with Ryan/Seibertron if you can use his pictures and post a "pictures courtesy of http://www.seibertron.com or similar" after your name.

I just PM'd seibertron, lets hope he says its cool then I'll post links to more..but I want to wait first so that if I need to i can delete the links to the ones i have already done..

Wow! Nice reviews Skywarp-2! I was amazed at how much information you packed into those reviews. I have a request, is there anyway you could do Beast Wars next, instead of continuing with the current Unicron line up?

Ok well, since I'm finished with Cybertron Optimus Prime, i think I'll go back and do Armada Blurr...and I'll also do Optimus Primal to kick off my Reviews of Beast Wars..you guys asked for it.. so each week I'll do one from each series, Armada, Cybertron, and Beast Wars.. later I'll come back and do Energon, Beast wars 2, and Beast Wars neo..

Should I throw a Movie review in there some times or not?? It takes awhile to compile the information and do the reviews properly..but I think I can manage 4 figures a week... but if not 3 will be the minimum..

So for Armada I'm doing Blur next for Blurrz here on seibertron.. :grin:

Beast Wars, I'm doing Optimus Primal to kick that review off..for gutsman heavy and Maximal Primal..:grin:

What's next for Cybertron/Galaxy Force???


So far we have:

Armada:
