MP Barricade review

I mean, why not

If I were to do one, it’d be smaller.

I don’t know how the fuck I never heard this song before, but the DJ at the place we had dinner at last night was playing this:

According to TFW2005, POTP Wave 2 legends(Battletrap and Tailgate), Prime Masters and Voyagers (Hung-gurr,Elita 1) have begun trickling to Walmarts in Ohio and California

POTP Hun-gurr video review…

Silverbolt . . . . . . what happened to you

OMG. G1 Abominus is one of my favorite combiners ever. I hope they don’t screw him up.

POTP Elita-1 Review

Stumbled onto this today. Didn’t even know this was out. Didn’t get it but, i dig the colorscheme and paint apps.

The new head however… I’m getting a junkion or Sweeps vibe. Which just doesn’t feel right for an “evil Rodimus”.

If you liked Superion, Abonimus will be just fine.

**POTP Hun-gurr **Review

My only negatives with it are the lack of a dedicated gun for him/Abominus and the front beast mode legs look malnourished. I love the extra articulation in the dragon heads. The G1 figure had excellent articulation for it’s time and it’s nice that this guy improves on it.

This is a pretty solid update. It’s impressive that it is an extensive retool of Silverbolt. I have a (albeit junker) Hungrr. It was way ahead of its time.

I actually think Abominus looks very good imo slightly better than Predaking.

Predaking is decent but a bit more lanky than the chunky/thick G1 toy.

Optimal Optimus is nice though its a shame the inner robot mode couldnt turn into the classic gorilla mode.

I wasnt super excited this year because most of those leaks a few months ago spoiled the surprise plus with the duocons in stores along with hung gurr theres not going to be much of a wait.

Abonimus is great because of the core figure that it is working with (Silverbolt).

Predaking - I would agree. It suffers from the same general problems of CW Devastator. It’s close but needs a bigger budget.

Optimal Optimus is a definite surprise. I expected it to suck but it seems to be pretty competent (outside of the waffle legs). The Evolution gimmick is a complete joke. You may as well just forget that the core robot is even there.

I find it strange that the movie MP line has a footing, given that the actual movie is being revamped.

Abominus looks great. So i’m happy. And more pretenders! Yay!

Predaking looks like a pretty good update but i think the G1 figure is still great and, has aged well in all it’s chunky G1 glory. I already have that “platinum” 30th anniversary reissue from a few years back also. So this release is not a high priority.

5 Voyager Scaled beasts. Why couldn’t they have done that with the Dinobots?
