Customer Reviews

Underrated baddie
I saw this transformer at the store and i liked it as an armored truck. It didn't appear in the transformers movie, but nevertheless i wanted it. It's a very nice surprise to transform it into robot ! He reminds me a lot of G1 Shockwave, with a single, menacing eye. It has several flaws: a lot of parts (the head, the bumpers, the hands) will snap-off too easily and you'll have to reassemble it once and again. It's top-heavy, so it's hard to pose it. And the feet are too slippery, so he falls down constantly.

...However.... it has so many little details that surprise you, that you can forgive his other flaws. The Claw Attack feature is very nice and fast, and adds a lot for playability. Sadly, it looks like if a steel beam found his way through poor Payload's chest forever. But its blue color, the appearing kneecaps, the hideout for the hands and all the details in the panels make up for all the defects. It makes a mean truck too.

If you are a collector like me, you can't leave this one out.

Disappointing
While he looks good as a robot (love the single eye), he is a loose limbed Transformer that does not pose very well as all. I also do not like the claw, which I did not notice when purchasing, that has the control sticking way out in the back.

This guy ended up in the "kids can play with this one" box.

Transformer toy
My nephew is autistic and he love to put together Transformers together. He is very particular about the ones he wants and he wanted this one. He loved putting it together and playing it with the Transformer. I recommend this toy.
