[html]Hier ist die Review von unserem Sponsor Kapow Toys zu Transformers Generations Legends Optimus Prime & Roller.
Kapow Toys Reviews Generations Legends Optimus & Roller
Coming in at the Commander class size scale Optimus is based on the IDW Comics design and is pretty awesome thanks to this. I've really enjoyed the last 24 hours with these little guys, far more than any Legends style figure I've owned before. The main figure is nice and solid and features a good level of articulation along with a solid transformation.
Both truck and robot mode are a success with the only grumble being about the constantly closing chest section and some clearance issues with the backpack created by moving the wheels up. Roller is basic but does his job, he doesn't really transform from truck to robot more than stand up but when it comes to the weapon mode he has a neat little folding mechanism which requires a gentle pull to change him into Optimus Primes double barreled cannon. He is too heavy for Optimus to wield comfortably in robot mode but these are primarily made for kids who will love them, the play value is huge and I think the fact you get 2 robots in the set makes it well worth picking up if your a parent or collector.
Overall Optimus & Roller score a mighty 8/10

[html]Hier ist die Review von unserem Sponsor Kapow Toys zu Transformers Generations Voyager Springer.
Kapow Toys Reviews Transformers Generations Voyager Springer
Dribble, drool, wibble...........................um this guy is slightly.................awesome ??? As a kid watching the 86 movie Springer stood out for me as one of the coolest characters ever, he says the line ''I've got better things to do tonight die'' for goodness sake but his toy was ever so slightly naff even for the 7 year old me so fast forward 26 years and Hasbro have just dumped one of the most amazing pieces of green plastic ever on the fandom and you simply must own it. I'm not one to normally go overboard from the point of view that we're an active business selling these things and it can come across as a sales tactic but this really is a triumph, the robot mode is Roche style perfection with nice clicky joints and the ability to either wield both weapons or carry one on his back whilst using the other, the colours are spot on with the only minor gripe being that the Autobot insignia could be bigger, to top it off he is capable of almost any pose you want, its a true action figure.
On to the alt modes, armored car is great, it does somewhat resemble something G.I.Joe would use crossed with a Batmobile but in my book that a whole lot of awesome and not much fail. The sword can be stored on the bottom of the car whilst the gun becomes a rocket launcher that can pivot up and down thanks to the hinge in the actual handle, the rockets themselves are activated by pushing the mechanism forward rather than spring loaded which can sometimes be a pain for adult collectors due to the loss potential thanks to family pets, kids or misfires.
Helicopter mode is again very very nice with a great aesthetic and a nice tight transformation, the futuristic element is there as it does not resemble any current earth bound helicopters but its a necessity for a toy which is switching through 3 modes. The blades spin freely and you can mount the cannon under the nosecone ( not shown )
Overall it might be because I'm simply blown away but this guy scores 9.5/10
Nice work Hasbro, more of this please.

[html]Hier kommt die Review von unserem Sponsor Kapow Toys zum Transformers Generations Voyager Blitzwing.
Kapow Toys Reviews Transformers Generations Blitzwing
Having watched and read some reviews on this guy from the last few days I've got to be honest I was dreading this morning and fully expected the devil in plastic so I'm happy to report I was pleasantly surprised. Right off the bat yes the shoulders are annoying, the left one seems to be the fave that does not peg in when in robot mode and it does mean the shoulders can roll when moving the arms, is it a deal breaker ? no, its just annoying, nothing more nothing less and was improved with a quick dab and dry of super glue. Blitzwing is a lot more complex than Springer, you can see the sheer amount of work which has gone into getting a robot to switch between robot, tank and jet, its a lot and it can't be ignored, sure he is far from perfect but whoever designed this guy must have cared about the character and for me they have done a good job.
In robot mode he looks like a Blitzwing should do, bulkier than his counterpart Springer and standing a little taller giving that feeling of imposing foe rather than easy opponent. The sword is a faithful update of the original whilst the gun comes off as a little weak, its quite tiny and sits rather awkwardly in his fist due to clearance issues it is however a good fit for a tank machine gun so maybe they were trying to strike a balance for both modes. Leg articulation is very nice with ball joint ankles, swivel and hinge knees and ball joint hips. There is no waist swivel due to the nature of the transformation and the fact the turret barrel and jet nosecone switch between this area for storage depending on what vehicle your picking. With regard to the 3 faces they are a nice touch and very cool bonus feature but don't interest me personally.
Jet mode comes across as very Alpha Fighter which in my book is only a good thing, it clips together well and the empty area some have complained about can actually be filled with the sword and then the machine gun plugged on top, the turret barrel can flip from exhaust to weapon in an instant adding play value for kids and big kids alike.
Tank mode is small but nicely formed, again if you transform it correctly it all clips together nice and tight, the tread transformation is quite nifty and another example of the level of thought and effort that gone into this toy. He freewheels nicely across the desk and the turret does pivot but at an awkward angle, does this bother me too much ? no because I've got 3 modes from 1 toy when I'm normally getting 2.
Overall Blitzwing scores 8/10 he's scoring this high due to the fact he is a design triumph for Hasbro and they have really thought about how its put together however if things like the shoulder issue really annoy you then chip off another point which will bring it down to a 7/10 and help make your mind up about a potential purchase, I don't purchase my figures to play with them anymore, its more about the design and engineering so I don't want to mislead any fans that do like to spend some time with their figures.

[html]Hier kommt die Review von unserem Sponsor Kapow Toys zum Transformers Beast Hunters Voyager Ultra Magnus.
Beast Hunters Voyager Ultra Magnus
A strange one this chap, when I first saw the photo's I thought it looked like a pointless clunky mess and had about as much excitement for it as picking up a cold but.............when it arrived in the warehouse and I picked him out of the packing crate our love affair began
I was wrong, I viewed him as just another repaint and its genuinely not the case, this mold really works at Magnus, more so than the actual Prime Magnus mold which came off as a little bit hollow and simple. First off this version comes with a big old hammer, that's pure win in itself but along with that you also get a detachable rocket pack, 2 missiles and pivoting launchers which double up as shoulders to make Arnie jealous so all in all a nice little package.
Most fans will own the Optimus so I won't go into it too much but suffice to say he has a good level of articulation, it still suffers from slightly loose hip joints which can slide under the weight of the rocket pack if posed slightly off but its not something which has detracted from my enjoyment. The toy does evoke an Animated Wing Blade Optimus Prime feel and I for one prefer it, the rocket pack snaps in place nice and firm during either mode and is not prone to popping off like my Jet Blade does, the hammer also fits very securely in both modes and the missiles have multiple points of storage overall giving massive amounts of play value for big and little kids alike.
Truck mode has one obvious difference in that the smokestacks are absent, this is so the rocket pack can attach flush in robot mode and I didn't notice their absence until about an hour after I unpacked him. The accessories fit nice and snug on the back of the truck actually snapping into place rather than loosely pushing or balancing so your free to race him round your desk or go that one step further and pretend he is a flying truck.......................I honestly have not this.....................honest.
Overall I unexpectedly score Ultra Magnus Mark II a strong 8.5 / 10 Hammer time indeed!

[html]Kapow Toys Reviews X-Transbots Glider
I love Powerglide, not necessarily the toy but the grumpy guy from the 80's cartoon with ''The Girl Who Loved Powerglide'' being one of my fave episodes of all time ( go on, rib me for it ) so this figure interested me greatly. The Universe / Classics version didn't do it for me with the original being too big and slightly rubbish so I've been looking for something to fill the gap, for £30 this does the job and does it quite well.
Feeling far more solid than i imagined in hand the first thing you notice is the thickness of the plastic, compared to recent mainstream releases of the same size this guy feels solid and weighty, the plane mode also holds together well, again far better than I expected. Upon transforming you are met with a middle of the road process, you pull the wings outward and along with the tail fins they split off from the main body on hinges then fold upwards, the lower legs are quite nifty so I won't ruin it for anyone with a description. Nice touches include being able to store his gun in the chest cavity whilst in plane mode and a raised heart imprinted inside the same cavity for when he is in robot mode.
Whilst a robot Powerglide once again fits together far tighter than I expected, he's not perfect but good enough for me, he has some nice articulation in the arms with shoulder and elbow swivels, his ankles also have ball joints allowing some good poses, I would have liked some more movement in the hip joint which is hindered in its outward movement but I'm guessing this is so he stays together in jet mode. As you can see from the images he is well balanced, enough so that he can stand on one leg unaided, weapon wise he comes with his main animation style pistol along with a large pistol and a knife. Due to the design of the hands only the animation style pistol and knife are a good fit, the large pistol tends to slip out but its a minor gripe when you have the choice of 3 weapons and easily remedied with a touch of clear nail polish.
Overall this exceeded my expectations which were not high and has turned out to be one of the most fun figures I've played with this month, its not perfect but will fill that Powerglide sized gap in your collection without a problem and is probably the best rendition of the character currently available.

Die wirken bestimmt toll, wenn man sie zusammen mit Metroplex dekoriert.
Da sollten einige schöne Dekomöglichkeiten drin sein.
Und die Tatsache, daß die beiden Partner Insektentransformer sind, macht Megatron und Starscream gleich noch etwas interessanter, wobei mir die beiden aber auch so sehr gut gefallen.

[html]Hier ist die Review von unserem Sponsor Kapow Toys zum FansProject Quake.
Fansproject Quake
Fansproject Quake is an additional mini figure which came with the recent Crossfire 02 Reissue. I originally thought this little guy would be a hollow snap kit style figure so was pleasantly surprised when I opened it to find him held together by pins and screws along with a decent bit of weight for his size.
Articulation wise he is very good, capable of a lot more poses than some larger figures and easy to move, transformation wise its very simple, the legs rotate and clip together, each arms swing forward on a hinge into place then you attach the separate gun handle creating the space magnum.
It looks really nice when its in the hands of the combined Bruticus figure so does its job well, it would have been nice though if the barrel section turned sideways on to give a more classic Shockwave appearance.
