Fast action battlers.I was just curious.I have the prime one, only reason cause it came in the wal-mart pack with the older prime. Some of the newer ones dont look too bad.Any opinions and thoughts would be great

I only own Jazz, and he's great. ^_^

I have a few: Ratchet, Brawl, Frenzy, Megatron, and I like them all. Blackout is worth a look at too, as it is a better figure than the Voyager version.

They are nowhere near as bad as people think they are, just because they have simpler transformations, and fewer pieces does not make them inferior toys.

I got Prime Ratchet and Brawl. I like the size, but the lack of articulation didn't impress me enough to go get more.

the FAB Ratchet,frenzy. megs and barricade really intrigue me.Every time i go out looking for new tformers i see them calling my name lol

I have them all and 2 of Frenzy, Bumblebee and Barricade. I rather like them, especially Frenzy.

I have Bumblebee, Ironhide, Prime, Jazz, and Frenzy, and I recently sold Starscream:

Frenzy- has enormous back kibble, but cool details.

Jazz- cool bec. he's a Solstice, and a decent robot mode. I modded his knees for better travel and carved up his arms to make elbows. Better than it was.

Prime- a cool alt mode, like a chopped-top semi-truck. Nice robot mode too. Plus he's Prime, I mean, come on.

Ironhide- Great gun details, possibly better than the Voy version. Arms permanently set at a 90-deg. bend, thus limiting poseability. Cool tranformation, one of the better FABs IMHO.

Starscream- pretty cool in both modes, and a very interesting transform, almost entirely automatic. Has retractable nose landing gear. Strangely oversized feet, bigger than Voy SS, so I trimmed them down. (The only reason I don't have him anymore is that I got Voy SS and needed to sell some stuff.)

Saved the best for last:
Bumblebee- great alt mode, only the door hinges and foot kibble spoil it. Elbows and knees, and nice molded robot mode details. My fave so far.

HTH!

So far, I got Blackout and Prime for my 5 yrs old niece. The line is totally wicked for his age group. He'll b begging 4more, indeed.


FAB line rocks.

brawl is pretty cool, the bot moe is better that the deluxe version imo.

Frenzy is pretty excellent. I have a bunch of them too, and they are a lot of fun.

I have the Starscream, though I haven't opened him yet. I'd like to get the Frenzy and will definitely be getting the 'new character' repaints.

Ironhide and Frenzy ftw

They transform!!??

I have them all in package and a few out of package. Megatron is pretty lame, although I like his transformation.

Frenzy is a definite must-buy, it's his only transforming figure and it is still impressive how they did it.

Starscream isn't so great, he is always hunched over.

Bumblebee is a pretty good one too, although I can't get his missile to go into the launcher.

Had some trouble with this as well.
His missile fires by twisting the tip of the barrel. To insert the missile, just slide it in and gently twist the barrel around till he clicks.

prime brawl megs

and soon frenzy
