Product Description

Repaired and rested after tje long struggle against the Autobots, Barricade is at a loss for what to do. Megatron has been destroyed, and most of the other Decepticons have dissapeared. It's more and more difficult to catch an Autobot alone, and tormenting human isn't as enjoyable as he thought it would be. For the time being, he fades into the background. He keeps his armor polished and his vehicle mode looking sharp in the hope that Megatron will return again, and lead the Decepticons to glory.

A Collector's Review
The Premium Barricade transformer is great for display, and has excellent articulation. The detail is top notch, bearing the "To Punish and Enslave" tag on one rear quarter panel and a license plate reading 'DCPTCN'. It comes with a tiny Frenzy transformer that can be taken out of Barricade's chest/grill, but he isn't much to look at. Barricade's left arm has a small trigger you can press that makes his forearm pop forward in a 'punch,' but if you don't do it just right it looks less like a punch and more like his arm is just extending downward. He holds together fairly well, but you have to be careful when transforming him (especially from robot to car). The bottom line is if you like Transformers and want the toys, definitely pick this one up IF you plan on displaying it and not working the parts a lot. If you're thinking about buying this for a child to play with, you should look at some of the bulkier lines of transformers made to handle wear and tear. Younger children just don't have the hand dexterity take care of this model, and it probably wouldn't take much transforming/battling for Barricade to break.

A Pretty Well Done Figure
Barricade's role in the 2007 film may make him a prime candidate for purchase for your kids or whoever. There are definitely others out there, many others in fact. Barricade's allure however comes from his alternate mode, the very sneaky police car mode which is well done. The black definitely represents his allegiance to the Decepticons. There's small details like the written phrase above the rear-right wheel that says "To punish and enslave". The POLICE writing on the doors is shiny which is a nice touch. What is a little frustrating about Barricade becomes evident after his first transformation. He transforms very easily and he looks great in robot mode. However, once you want to put him back in car mode, you might run into trouble. You attempt to pack in his legs again and bring up the sides of the car (his arms) to snap into the folded up legs, but they will not match up correctly. A lot of people get frustrated easily because he doesn't seem to cooperate. Barricade is just merely a little more tricky than other Transformers. What eludes a lot (and even me for a while) is that his chest is connected to a small lever that folds up and goes into the chassis of the car. You kinda have to push his chest/legs up and then into the car. This gives you the necessary leeway to get the other pieces to snap together. Barricade is a little tricky for a Transformer, so make sure you know how to do it before handing it to a small child who might get upset easily. Still, he retains his cool looks in both forms and is a nice pickup.

Premium decepticon GREATNESS!!!
This Barricade rules the streets! His super sleek police cruiser mode is so well detailed that I think he may have the best decepticon car mode out of any movie line toy. The paint apps are crisp and clear. His detailed car parts look great and he just feels solid.

Barricade's transformation is pretty easy with a minimum of pieces that will fall off during conversion. Also in robot mode you can rotate the upper-arm pieces into such a position that they look like cool shoulder armor.

His robot mode is, like the vehicle, highly detailed sporting great paint applications that make him look like old Barricade is about throw you across a parking lot and ask if YOU are ebay user name Ladiesman217! Overall this really is a great figure with some awesome movie accurate detail. Even if you already have another version of Barricade pick this one up!
