Xtransbots Glider Video Review

There is so much going on in the leg transformation, it is pretty amazing. Very impressed.

...alright, now I'm interested.

woah.. are they tackling galvatron also?

I like the figure, but I was hoping for them to hide the face. Transformation is very interesting, especially the cockpit sliding around to be put inside his chest.

I dunno, it looks like an interesting figure and it's decently G1 accurate, but something about it looks off, like it needs a little updating or something. I dunno if it's too blocky or what, but it looks more like a cheap toy instead of a sweet action figure. I do like its scale, though.

I got mine on pre-order along with the Hothouse repaint. I told yall CHMS was comin up !!!

Is there any way to order this without going through KO Toys? I refuse to spend a penny with them.

I don't like this,it's way too blocky & weirdly designed in both modes. it looks more like a takara scf pvc figure than a toy. i also don't like all the extra costume pieces all over the waist section.

the over sized head makes it look like a bobble head toy or a one of those super deformed gundam robots toys.

this is not for me.

Ace's Toy Store. Nice people, excellent service. They carry CHMS among other things. They don't carry the G1 bootlegs, such as combiners but they can special order them for you.

are you implying that they will most likely end up carrying it? cuz I cant find it anywhere on the site

This is an unlicensed copy of a previously licensed (by Takara)kit by an independent company.

I'm not getting into the niceties of this is legal or not but for Primus' sake! Is there no satisfying the so called experts?

Powerglide wasn't much of a looker. He's got a phallic shaped head with no actual feet(at least until he was animated in the show).

Jizai (the original manufacturers)did engineering wonders from the original Takara mini bot design. Given the limitation of the originals, that the figure managed to have an actual molded legs and feet deserves accolades. And all we are hearing that this is blocky, why wasn't it updated and all this schlock!

This was a G1 blocky as a brick design! What'd you expect? Jizai wasn't going for an update but a more robot like figure from the original brick he came from jeezzzzzzzzz!

Makes me wonder how this design could be implemented otherwise?
