Enter the Fuzors! - Age of the Primes Deluxe QUICKSTRIKE #BeastWars #Transformers

Reminds me of why I loved the Beast Wars era of toys as much as I did - both modes carry so much personality! This figure jumps right off the screen and into plastic form. Pose-able, well deco’ed, perfect head sculpts in both modes. It’s also an upgrade to the original (as mich as i love that toy too…), replacing the previous translucent yellow plastic with a beautiful opaque bright gold…. It’s just a perfect representation of the character and I’m am 💯 % in to it.

Disregard the inflation and tarriff raised ridiculous prices of deluxe toys these days. No Beast Wars fan will want to miss this one.

I bought the first Robeson Optimus. Used it a couple of times and then set it aside, thinking I probably wouldn’t buy more. But Soundwave as a fully functional working audio player… TEMPTING!

New Transformers Age of The Primes Preorders are now available! Onslaught is a must have for me, I think he looks amazing. This new Bruticus combiner just may be the best combiner figure to date! I am also looking forward to a potential Ruination repaint.

Is that Armada Sideways!? Looks amazing! I still have the original which I always loved but really wanted more articulation and now we have it. I can't wait to add this new Sideways to my Armada collection.

Which of these two are you most excited for? Onslaught? Sideways? Or maybe both?

Let’s hear your thoughts!

I just found this 4-pack a few hours ago before opening my shop. So I don't have time to do a full write-up. I super love these four packs that they have been doing, and they have been a lot of fun. Obviously, that price point definitely hurts.

Ultra Magnus is amazing, though getting his legs to clip together in vehicle mode was super annoying.

Horri-Bull is fun, and it's weird to still see the headmasters being made this far out from several years ago. This guy definitely has some flaws, including the fact that his arms are supposed to tab into his body in animal mode but good luck with that, I spent a half hour on trying to figure it out and gave up. I'm always down for extra Transformers though, so a headmaster is always welcome.

Bumper, not much needs to be said. A wonderful toy and always cool to see him represented.

Nemesis prime looks amazing in robot mode, but his transformation was finicky and frustrating. I still can't get the top of the cab to fit snugly or tab in, so it is what it is.

Overall I would definitely say this is an 8 out of 10 for a set

#StudioSeries Airachnid #TransformersOne

I’m such a fan of this film and this character was a surprising and welcomed addition to the cast.

Not thrilled we all had to wait so long after the film release to finally getting a quality Studio Series edition of the character. But yo! better late than never(!🤘) And this one is worth the wait.

Head sculpt is perhaps the most important aspects of toy design for me - it delivers! Legs are surprisingly pose-able, considering the very slender dimensions and somehow manages to stand without losing balance and falling- despite the high heels and screen accurate high-mass backpack.

Vehicle is unique in Transformers and completely (screen accurate) nutso! (I love it!) Transformation is fun without being overly complex or time consuming. My only critique is the deco. Should be a shiny jet black, instead of the steely grey that it is. No biggie, this just means I have a fun toy painting weekend project ahead of me!

Erik at ToyRobot Magazine with with something fun today.

What a morning! I was lucky enough to find Onyx Prime sitting on a shelf in Target and had to nab him up. I've been waiting quite a while for this guy to come out, and he is one of the most anticipated figures out of the 13 Primes for myself. His centaur mode is reminiscent of Saint Seiya or any number of old 70s and '80s robots. And that was a huge driving force for me to add this to the collection.

Let's start off with the robot mode. This is a super solid and fun figure. The wings on the back are fully poseable in this mode and look great. He has a good range of movement, though you may find yourself struggling a little bit with his legs. He can carry his spear, but I wish the hand would close a little bit more. His face looks really neat inside this giant bird like helmet.

His next mode is a centaur as mentioned above. And as mentioned above this is a throwback to one of many manga, anime, robot figures in the past. In this mode his tail opens up to become a bow and the spear now serves as the arrow. It can be a little bit clumsy while on the figure but from a distance it does look good. Again the wings in this mode are fully posable. You'll also find that he has a massive range of movement in centaur mode, and I was able to get an action pose. You'll notice nothing is holding it up, it's balanced on its own while rearing up on the rear legs!

Finally the third mode, a six-legged dragon like creature. An unadvertised option allows you to make this a four-legged dragon so you can take your pick of what look you prefer. This is a great mode and a lot of fun. Onyx prime may be one of the most unique triple changers to come out in a long time.

Overall, this figure may have worked his way into my top 10 favorite transformers. I absolutely love this thing. It's solid, it's fun, it's easy to transform, and it has an amazing look to it. It may be too far to say that this is a master class in toy making, but I feel like it's a really close.

Hey everyone, Erik with ToyRobot Magazine. Let's start the day off with something super fun. A vintage G1 3D Stand Up jigsaw puzzle featuring Bluestreak. This toy was offered by Warren and may possibly be one of the coolest transformer items ever made in the G1 era.

Warren made two of these puzzles, one of Bluestreak and one of Starscream. When put together they would depict a beautiful battle scene. The puzzles had oddly shaped pieces and could provide a little bit of a challenge for a younger child.

Once the puzzle was put together, they would then flip it over revealing a new challenge. On the reverse was a setup that looked like a flat model kit, because essentially, that's what it was.

The child would have to follow the included instructions, carefully punching out these pieces and reassembling them. That means some of these puzzle pieces would have to be removed from the surroundings and then reattach to other pieces. In its own right this is one of the coolest aspects of this toy, puzzle pieces that had to fit not only in their correct place once, but twice! I couldn't begin to tell you how someone would plan that out or make that work, but once you start doing it and everything starts fitting together it's mind-boggling and really fun.

Then you would be left with a layout of several connected pieces, some of which had scored joints, another incredible aspect of the puzzle. These fragile pieces had to be able to bend and move ever so slightly to make the toy work.

After this you would create the car, now a 3D construct and pretty decent looking overall. On mine it was impossible to get one of the doors to stay shut but judging from the pictures on the box they were always meant to be slightly ajar.

The final piece of this puzzle was a third mode. Now you would take the car apart and reassemble it to create a 3D stand up version of the figure. This can be rather frustrating as it is very fragile, difficult to get things to stay together, and clumsy. Trying to get the arms to stay on was the most frustrating part on my end.

At the end of the day this is a rather common piece, which can be obtained online from anywhere from $20 to $40. Finding them in good condition can be a little bit tougher, as mentioned earlier, these pieces are fragile and you have to do a lot of taking apart and reassembling and that can cause heavy wear and tear on the toy.

I was very lucky to find this recently at an antique shop for only $10, thanks to my father's eagle eyes for pointing it out. Imagine finding a G1 toy for only $10! And even after 40 years this item still blows my mind. I'm not saying it's a perfect toy, but if I was a little child in the 1980s this definitely would have been one of my favorite pieces in my collection. Whoever designed this, you are a genius!
