Finally! The wait is over. I still remember few years back someone wondered whether Hasbro or TakaraTomy will make Satarscream in Leader Class. Now, the dream came true and here you are, Leader Class Starscream, Hunts for the Decepticons toyline.When i heard, Starscream reached local toyshop, i don't waste anymore time and went to the nearest toyshop to see this guy. When i saw him, i am shocked to see the details of him. Without further due, grabbed him and couldn't believe it that i can get lower than the retail price.Alright now, let's see what Starscream got to offer for us.
From the box itself, you can see the details of Starscream. The design of the box also looks so tempting.
A bit more closer to the lower part of the box.
Starscream's bio.
Left and right box. Closer looks on the cannon. Special features.
More info at the back.
Battle hook OP with Battle Damage effect.
Out of the box.
Close-ups at the face.
The chest. Pull down the red cockpit for extra sounds.
Love the details very much. Love every inch of it.
I hope i pose Starscream the right pose.
More on the details.
The correct way to pose Starscream is to bend the legs like that.
Rear view.
Close-up on the back.
Side view.
Close-ups on the guns.
Close-up on the leg.
Love the tattoo on the F22 Raptor.
'What's lies beneath.'
Side view, F22 Raptor, Jet Mode.
Close-up on the lower part of the jet.
Rear view.
Strong wheels to support big Starscream.Overall, i give Starscream 9.5 out of 10. I like the details very much. Quite easy to transform him to alternate mode and back to robot. The tattoo on the back of the jet is accurate as in the movie. The sounds also nice. Like the phrases very much. Showed you how mean is Starscream.From what i heard, TakaraTomy will produce Masterpiece Movie Starscream in few months time. As far as i'm concern, it's almost the same mold OR TakaraTomy just using the same mold to produce another Masterpiece out of this one? Are you kidding me TakaraTomy? Have you run out of ideas lately?Well, i don't want to see the same mold to be produced again for Masterpiece. Masterpiece is for Masterpiece and movie is for movie.
This is the new toyline introduced by Hasbro which is related to War For Cybertron video game. For this one, Hasbro named it Transformers Generations, almost the same looks of Hunt for the Decepticons packaging. For the first wave, Transformers Generations OR TFG come with 4 deluxe, Cybertronian Optimus Prime, Cybertronian Bumblebee, Thrust and Autobot Drift.
People might ask me, why not just review Optimus Prime or Bumblebee? Well, to me, i like new mold. Yes! I know Transformers Generations Optimus Prime and Bumblebee also a new molds but for me Autobot Dirft is something. May be because i like to review other characters rather than Optimus Prime or Bumblebee.
First look Autobot Drift in box.
Kinda weird why they named it Autobot Drift. The insignia already resembled Autobot plus Autobot text beside the insignia.
Alternate Mode:
Front view. Wonder if TakaraTomy can come out with Henkei version.
Rear view.
Side view. Notice the gap?
View from below.
Nice car isn't it?
Is that Chinese writing or what?
Robot Mode:
Autobot Drift came with 1 sword and 2 knife. What i like about the knives is, you can slid it under the door panels. Meanwhile for the sword, you can put it beneath the car mode.
Close-up on the face. Do you think what i'm thinking? Something got to do with the cats?
Side view with the knives.
Rear view with the sword attached at the back like warrior indeed.
Rear view without the sword.
Cool eh?
One thing i like the most about Autobot Drift is, he is poseable. Can pose any action you want especially with the sword and knives.
A warrior style with sword attached at the back and 2 knives.
Did i just said, you can pose anything with this fella?
Comparison between Transformers Generations Thrust and Autobot Drift.
Overall review:
I give Autobot Drift 9 out of 10. Why 9? Well, if you check the poses i've done with Drift, it show ed that he deserve good review and recommendations. Just the same complaint that i don't like small head. I prefer a slight bigger head to balance Drift's body parts. If you check the leg, kinda big, shoulder also big but the head sculpt kinda smaller than the shoulder.
Transformation wise, not that hard to transform. Fully recommended this 1 for you to grab it. Buy 1st Regret Later guys!!
