The best thing to come out of Combiner Wars wasn't even a combiner. CW Magnus blasted my god damned face off because a functioning car carrier and truck that has no white Optimus Prime repaint that somehow transforms in to a kibble free and basically flawless robot mode while defying the gimmick of the line was essentially a design team saying '"You know that whole combiner thing? Yeah fuck that. Ultra magnus has only EVER been a white Optimus Prime retool and we are gonna give him some love for a god damned change."

This was the line that got me out of collecting back in the day. I can’t afford to just up and buy 5 bots in one go so completing a full combiner was never really a possibility for me. Do you know what the antithesis of fun is? I’d say it’s 3/5 of a combiner making a flaccid attempt to look cool.

Combiner Wars Voyager Optimus is ROUGH, especially compared to Siege or even Earthrise. The best thing that can be said about him is that if you're willing to blow $50 on the Primo Vitalis upgrade kit, he apparently makes a pretty good MP scale IDW Optimus.... The best way I can summarize his issues is by saying that Transformers Energon Optimus Prime, the one that the fanbase mockingly dubbed "Fatimus prime" and is a blatant Megazord copyright infringement, does virtually everything CW Optimus does as good or better, at the cost of a bit of leg articulation.

Ah Combiner Wars. I see plenty of Combiners, not so much on the Wars. Hasbro picked a perfect time to recapture my imagination. Bionicle finished up its first generation run. Hero Factory was shutting down and the Thrilling 30 reminded me that Transformers hadn't converted 100% to the Bayverse. First wave was brilliant. 4 of one team and 1 of the opposing team. Enough to put together a combiner, but a complete. And when wave 2 came out that missing piece came weeks later so you'd buy the other. It was the marketing saavy of a crack dealer. It's one strength was that the molds were so all-purpose you could make dozens of combiners from the components. But that was also its weakness. A bad mold stayed a bad mold and created a lot of apathy in later waves like 7 and 8. Helicopter: I liked them. Alpha Bravo was a predeco of Blades and Vortex. I wish they had retooled this mold for Blast Off Harrier: it simplicity saves it. I renamed the CW Blast Off, into Lift Off. A fighter jet makes sense in that combat group so I approve. F-14 and F1 race car: I wish they were used 1 or 2 molds more and the Sports Car/Sedan used 2-3 molds less. Pick up Truck: Not bad. Back when these were $11 or $12 USD it seemed like a good value. The workhorse of the line as it was used for tanks, APC, jeeps, ambulances and drill machines. Lambo: Lucky you look pretty. Car mode is good. Robot mode is ugh. but we got Breakdown vs Sunstreaker. Sedan: I didn't hate the sedan at first. Nor the 2nd or 3rd time used. 5 was my limit. After 5, I didn't care. And the Stunticons took 3 of those slots already. I just got sick of the sedans. The other bit of marketing I started to respect, but then hate was the 6th member. The Aerialbots, Stunticons, Protectobots and Combaticons got a six member to fill in for an absent #5. When you could order them only I thought that was brilliant. It added something new, but left the original recipe available online. But it only works if the originals are available. Groove and Blast Off were easy, but Slingshot and Wildrider were impossible to find. Another dropped ball Hasbro. But those are my memories of the Combiner Wars.
@PerspectiveEnd2 жыл бұрын
Yeah, I was and into the transformers for really long time largely because of the bay verse myself. Honestly I never thought of that before, but it would have made a good blast off. That was all very interesting, I never got to experience combine are wars of myself in any meaningful way. So it was very intriguing to see your reaction to it.
@mista2156 Жыл бұрын
I have the ko set of combaticons and my onslaught had the same problem as your hot spot where the legs couldn’t do the thing. It’s like that because there’s an extra cylinder piece inside his legs that prevents it from clicking into place, so I opened up the legs and cut it off, along with an extra triangle that’s not on the original and it works fine now.

@@PerspectiveEnd I know there are better third party devastators out there, but I also don’t want to spend like 500 dollars or more for a complete set, and while very flawed, it will save me a lot of money to get the combiner wars reissue, I also feel combiner wars will fit nicely in my collection of main line figures, I only go into third party territory if I feel I absolutely have to, like with my insecticons, I got the mmc ones because I feel legends sized insecticons is too small for me. And I have gone on long enough and I don’t know why I write incredibly long comments and I hope it doesn’t bother you.

@@Supreme-Being-8 Don't worry it didn't bother you. Me thinks you didn't read the whole of what I had to say though. I have one of those stupid expensive Combiners, and I wish I didn't spend the money on it. If I could go back in time I'd buy the Combiner Wars instead.

@@PerspectiveEnd now owning it, and having it in hand, it is Huge, the only figure I have that even compares in size is the studio series devastator. And it is surprisingly stable, and also looks amazing when posed with my other figures like my earthrise hoist and grapple, almost perfect scaling with other figures for me. I should say that I don’t have masterpiece level of standards, so take what I say with a grain of salt

I think you can combine factions on a combiner, but only if the core component is decepticon. After all, bombshell will do what he does.

I mean Bombshell does need to be alive, but there are other methods, like Blackmail.

never had combiner wars apart from one legends class paraglider decepticon recolor. so from what I see the entire line is a bunch a pretty meh figures who can combine, also almost all of them are retool of other moulds. fun if you hvae the right team, underwhelming in everything else.

As someone who was there, I can say it was repaint city. The only combiner I fully completed was bruticas. Most of the figures after wave 2 were repaints. The devastator was neat,but it doesn’t scale well at all. The new combiners are dumb, sky lynx looks dumb, the prime looks dumb. And I hate what they did the the teams in the comics and show. So in all Worse than earth rise, nothing but repaints and nothing but disappointment

I hate the Head Master Gimmick my self, but when I gave TR a Try I found that the engineering was actually shockingly good. Some of those TR figures are still amazing right now. And then with Siege we saw a massive uptick in quality and design. Hasbro can still put out some awesome stuff, sure it's hit or miss but at least the misses come cheap. 3P is awesome, but I got space in my heart to enjoy both.
