I think packing them in altmode is a great idea, with the open packaging. It's harder for heads and legs to be ripped off/for them to fall off when they're all folded away It's really funny to me that the worst figures (Road Rocket and Blurr) are the ones I can't find anywhere, and they're the ones I really want. I have Hauler and Override and I love them--picked them up the day of release, and I have nothing but good things to say about them. Scourge is a solid "maybe" for me. His deco is too Nemesis Prime for me, when the cartoon had more greys and greens. I want him to look more like his own character, if that makes sense? I've got a ton of Nemesis Primes already, if I get Scourge I want him to feel like I haven't wasted my money on the same toy for the third time

@SilverHairedFreak25 Жыл бұрын
Blurr is probably my least favorite for the reasons you mentioned. I'm at least gald my copy has tighter joints and can hold his gun. Road Rocket's main faults are just inherent to the Arcee mold. Nothing against her. Clampdown? He's the Sideswipe mold. You can't go wrong with the Sideswipe mold. Still don't have Cosmos. Burnout is just a delight. I don't have Skids but I'm lowkey glad I skipped him. The mold looks so good in black. Override is easily the best of the line. It managed to outdo the original figure in almost every way and FEELS like a toy from 2005 in all the best ways. Road Hauler? What can I say, I love the Grapferno mold, and having it in my favorite color? Yes please! Still don't have Scourge.
@wendyhotchkiss7772 Жыл бұрын
Override is definitely the star of this wave. She stands out as the most well-constructed modern TF figure I've ever handled. Joints are tight, everything is pegged in securely, the wheels aren't clip-ons but instead are on metal pins, the amount of paint-apps are just right, no obvious hollow areas in robot mode, and she just looks so good. Seriously someone at Hasbro or Walmart must have a soft spot for this character.

Velocitron is only on import online shops in Holland, and they are insanely priced. The deluxe are priced as voyagers, voyagers are 10 euro's on top of a normal voyager. It's insane. I had to get Scourge because I didn't have that mold yet and he looks awesome, I do have a bit of a problem with the short arms personally but overall a very good toy. I want to get Hauler because he could be one of the Constructicons. Everything else I'm not getting (Already have Cosmos). If they somehow made Override more feminine (unlike the original) then I might have gotten her as well but it's a bit to generic for me in Robot mode. Great video again!

Picked up Overide as the original release did not age well. Not that the car doesn't still look great, just that literally nothing wants to tab in or stay together anymore. The arms especially just flop down in vehicle mode when picked up and I honestly don't know why. The new one however is amazing. Paint looks great, wheels roll, and all the joints are super tight/effective. Never had any luck finding Scourge so got the much easier to find Laser Prime. Again very solid/fun figure and huge improvement over the original in engineering/articulation. Really like how the arms can move independently of the shoulders and the flip open missile bays are a nice touch. Trailer/battle platform though are underwhelming for the additional cost.
@mage_43 Жыл бұрын
It's funny, I've managed to find every Velocitron figure... except for Override. Even though I only found him once, I still managed to find a Cosmos before Override. So that's fun. Also I guess I got really lucky with my Blurr, the hips and legs aren't as loose on mine. Although to be fair I only got him because I liked how this one looked vs the Studio Series one. Update: I finally found an Override, so that's cool
@LaneBassingthwaite Жыл бұрын
I cut off the arm sections and glued them to the back of Blurr. Really cleaned him up and I love the figure now. I have a slight looseness in the hips but my copy is pretty good.

I only REALLY wanted scourge and had to fork up hasbro pulse shipping charges because the walmart one sold out constantly and it never showed up in any stores by me. I'm glad I got him though mine was slightly scratched IN package somehow. Scourge is a really good example against the "figures with light piping look dead most of the time" complaints people give for lightpiping on figures. Whenever a tiny bit of light falls above scourge his pink sword and eyes glow like the sun, at least on my copy, Same can't be said for the rocket pods, weirdly. I might pick up the others in the wave, still waiting to find the cybertron remake figure and screaming hauler, maybe cosmos too. The whole wave is honestly really nice save for blurr with his fake wheels. I might try at some point to get the takara LG voyager version of scourge from a few years back as my "modern update to the original paint deco" version. I REALLY like how velocitron scourge has an evil looking matrix in his chest, as inaccurate as it is to the character in the show.

I liked the Arcee mold, but I'm going to wait and get the Flamewar SG figure. Clampdown? I have almost every other iteration other than the Netflix decos. I'm happy with it. Cosmos. I love it. One of my favorite figures this year. Burnout. I like the Skids mold but don't need another. Override. Fantastic. Hauler. On the way from Pulse. Should arrive tomorrow.
