Siege Jetfire is a masterpiece, I don't know what you're talking about

I'm talking about the toy line classification he falls into, not his quality.

I know, just havin some fun

It;s the one toy to finaly give that good design justice. Also, as I hope you find out one day, the transformation design is very good. You'd think we'd seen it all with Grimlock so far but they find a way to keep it fresh.

We have good news for fans. Cyberverse Spark Armor Battle Class Shockwave and Ratchet have been found at US retail. Specifically, Target in Colorado. These are around scout sized and, unlike the majority of that line's toys, are not simplified. Their only gimmick is that you can attach armor onto them, similar to the Siege gimmick, and this armor is compatible with Siege toys.
This particular sighting was found by user Fc203 who posted on our forums.

If ever you find him as well, please let fans know in your state's (or country's) sightings forum. You can also insert the sighting in our sightings section.

I like that the accessories for the Spark Armor figures (as in the "spark armor" itself) all seem to homage past Titan Master vehicles from Titans Return, other characters, or other vehicles from past lines. Nice to see those concepts appear elsewhere.

It sucks that Walmart seems to be passing on the Spark Armor figures in favor of moving those old loose Titan Guardian figures from a box on the shelf to hanging them on the pegs as if visibility was why they weren't selling well. Just put them on clearance already, nobody wants them anymore!

Just in from zoidiect on YouTube is a video review of the new Transformers Cyberverse Power of the Spark Spark Armor Shockwave with Solar Shot. zoidiect shows the transformation, how the armor fits on Shockwave, and how he stacks up next to Cyberverse Gnaw. Many fans have made the comparison of this upgraded Shockwave to some of his prior incarnations, and the use of a satellite for his sidekick certainly harkens back to his Transformers Energon version. Enjoy the view and let us know your thoughts in the forum. Stay tuned to Seibertron for the ultimate in Transformers news.

Let's talk Cyberverse. 2 figures specifically.

first up, Sky Byte.

This guy is a fantastic little dude! The robot mode is really enjoyable and despite the lack of a head swivel, he poses as much as I would hope he could. The colors are really nice too, with some decent paint. The transformation is effective and the shark mode is awesome. I'm surprised at how good the shark mode is and how well it all works out, well done!

The drone is also cool. the drill bit fits over his fist, so you get a pretty awesome claw/drill double punch. And the dividing up of the drone works out really nice. I love it!

Overall, he is great. i didn't plan to get him, but I saw him at Target today and decided to give him a try, and he was much better than i thought he would be. I like him more than Cheetor. Gives me confidence in how much I will enjoy Ratchet.





And the other Cyberverse figure of the day: Grimlock. I saw him again today, and third times the charm. Wow is he awesome.

Given he is twice as much as Sky Byte, I am surprised at how much larger he is, and how it isn't the result of weak plastic or hollowness. He is pretty filled out, and he has really good posability too.

The robot mode is the strongest mode, and it kills. He is big and intimidating, has a great head, awesome arms, and that super stomp thing is really cool. The colors are sweet! Transformation is pretty different with the way the legs work and the dino mode is cool, though I wish the front had a bit more color breakup, but that's minor.

He is definitely worth the money. he is a better toy than the PotP Grimlock for sure, and they were both around the same price, and he is bigger.

He is good, get him if you can.

And with that, I have 3 Cyberverse figures. I'd say Cheetor is the weakest of the 3, but all 3 are pretty good, and a definite increase in quality and fun over the original cyberverse figures. Now to wait out Ratchet and the Scraplet!

I’m totally guilty of disregarding RiD and this line or these types of younger themed lines as just phoned in and automatically lower quality but this time it really seems different.

I mean with Cheetor and Sky Byte and Jetfire, the cleverness in these transformations despite the economy of cost/materials, it is all really impressive to me. The attention to the detail on this Grimlock’s face and how his action feature works is undeniably appealing and just plain cool.

If I wasn’t so obsessed with Siege and had more funds I’d grab these in a heartbeat. You guys have sold me on them. If you get bored with them I have a good forever home waiting for them

GRIMLOCK.... SMASH!!!!
