The YouKu user ckyyo2 who brought us the Hardhead review yesterday is back, with two more reviews in one single video: Skullcruncher and Scourge, both also from the Titans Return line! Fellow Seibertronian Doctor McGrath points us in the right direction, so you can enjoy the embedded video below, and brush up on your Chinese skills as you take a look at the toys!

More Bots. More News. More Awesome.

Lordy, these reviews just keep coming out the woodwork. I think stripes, some titan masters and pm op are the only things from wave one that haven't been reviewed.

Scourges legs are an easy fix. They're together with only screws. They just need diassembled, flipped and put the thighs on the right side.

He does look better with the outer alt mode pieces as the front of the leg though. It's all a matter of swapping them and giving him knee articulation for that look. Might be worth doing for scourge and fixing it for the official look for sweeps.

Hasbro...why do you suck so bad at product implementation, functionality, stability, and final execution.

I could go on and on about any of these. The two figures represented are pure crap. They are hollow, unstable, the head release is jacked, the transformations put unneeded stress on subpar plastic, and the detailing is awful. I see complete failure for anything below voyager class in operations. Not one leaked figure has been outstanding. There will be no diamond in the rough with this toyline. :BANG_HEAD:

Did you watch the whole video? Near the end of it he messes with Scourge's legs until the are oriented correctly. He just mistransformed his legs.

You say this as if you've personally handled the figures. Why judge something so harshly when you haven't even personally played with it.

I wasn't going to get Alpha Trion because I have the awesome Botcon version from the Vector Prime mold. But dammit, that figure just looks cool. I love the space ship mode.

I wasnt caring too much for him either at first, but man he just looks so damn detailed and colourful. It is rare that a figure actually matches or even outdoes the artwork:

I don't understand the negative talk here, at least not in my perspective. These toys look really fun to play around with, I find no problem with the gimmicks as gimmicks and transformers go hand in hand. If your problem is with paint apps well check in with Takara and see their offerings.

We are in a fantastic place as there is almost something for everyone, and we may not share the same tastes in ascetics but we all share a love for transforming robots :-)

The negativity comes from people who seriously need to just stop collecting toys and stop acting like they entitled to stuff. That's what these are, toys. If you(negative grown adults) are not fond of them stop acting like a kid throwing a fit in a toy aisle and stop acting like these things insult intelligence. No one is forcing anyone to buy any of them.

Personally I like what's going on here. Nothing is perfect, 13 years ago during armada, transformers were lucky if they had knees or elbows.

I really like the Big Convoy horns on the his "helmet" too. I can't wait to see the eventual LioConvoy repaint of this figure. It's got to be coming, right? :-?

Same, I've recently gotten over his chunky lion mode, and am now really excited to get him, he looks exquisite (unlike, say... TR Blurr :SICK: )

Colors aside, I think Blurr looks fantastic. That's why I'm getting the Takara version. It's the only TR figure I'm getting the Takara version of.

I've become hooked on Takaras legends line lately. I'm someone that is fine with Hasbros releases, I don't enjoy spending a lot of transformers anymore-I have bills that are a priority-but after picking up the three fem-cons, Magnus and deadlock I had to get Skids. Most of the first waves of head masters legends are presold out so I'll be totally happy with hasbros version but if they end up instock I'm tempted for a couple.

Man, how much will Takara's Scourge and Blurr cost in US dollars? Because I would like to have those two instead of the Hasbro versions.

Blurr is $30, but good luck finding a pre-order for him. Scourge should be ~$26 I think
