  1.  Wheelie good.

    Posted: 

    This guy is amazing. Even though he is from the deluxe line, Wheelie is more "real gear" than anything, since he is based on a radio controlled truck. The clever part is the transformation. In truck mode he is somewhere inbeween a large scout and a small deluxe. In robot mode he is as tall as most voyager class figures and he looks very close to his movie counterpart. Get him.

  2.  The new Masterpiece Prime.

    Posted: 

    In 2007, we were treated to Leader Class Optimus Prime.
    A great figure, if a little boxy in places. 2009 Bam! Hasbro/Takara
    drop this badboy on us. Very movie accurate robot mode and a brilliant new transformation. Gone is the clunky gun, now he has double blade action! Articulation is great, too.
    A note to parents: May not be suitable for younger children, due to complex transformation and flip out swords.

  3.  Where there's smoke, there's me.

    Posted: 

    The only new Voyager mold in the Universe (classics 2.0) line, and the best. It has some great engineering and is solid in both modes.
    The box art says Generation 2, which is probably a clever ploy by Hasbro to not give him his ladder like his G1 counterpart. (G2 had ladder and water cannon) That is just nitpicking. Hopefully we will see this mold return as grapple someday. But for now, buy this bot!
    He's awesome.

  4.  Great exclusive at a price that won't make you ralph ;)

    Posted: 

    I'm not a massive Star Wars fan. But I like exclusive stuff.
    I had already bought the McQuarrie Chewbacca (Best face ever)
    So £1.99 for this was an offer too good to miss. It even arrived
    in a plastic "Celebration Europe" box, over the original card back.
    Which is good news for MIB fans.

  5.  Landmine will blow you away.

    Posted: 

    This is probably the best movie deluxe released. In vehicle mode ( Desert Patrol Vehicle) It has working suspension and a roof mounted cannon. The robot is brilliant. It has an auto morph feature on the chest so the wheels move in, freeing up space for the arms. The rear wheels relocate into the back of the legs very similar to the Bonecrusher's "roller-skates" At the front, the two cryo tanks form his feet.
    It has nice stiff joints and is more articulate than any other deluxe class figures ( It can even stand on one hand) The roof cannon is also able to flip forward to become shoulder mounted or removed so he can wield in in his giant claw-like hands.
    AWESOME!!!

  6.  Thundercracker is a cracker.

    Posted: 

    Thundercracker is the first reissue of the movie Starscream mold (In the UK) The difference here is that it comes with a new G1 style head as well as the colour scheme, which is sure to please the many G1 fans who didn't like the new design.(well maybe a few) This is a great chunky robot with a very clever and fun transformation. I'm sure Hasbro UK will eventually roll out ;) Skywarp and Starscream, before re tooling the mold for the other seekers.
    MISB fans: This will ship in a large jiffy bag, so royal mail will more than likely ding the box.

  7.  Great Keychain

    Posted: 

    This is a great series of keying transformers, but really it is a cool and cheap way to get hold of
    Re issue mini G1 TF's for your collection. All they need to do now is bring out Huffer because he is awesome.

  8.  Rubber robot not in disguise.

    Posted: 

    As my fellow reviewer said above it has sloppy paint apps,
    and it isn't as articulate as it is made out to be. It seems rather large to hang off a set of keys, but it does make a great desktop piece and the robot is more movie accurate than all of the other toys.

  9.  Megatron not so mega.

    Posted: 

    Megatron is finally back as a gun for his alt mode. However due to laws about toy guns, he returns in the form of a "futuristic blaster" which would be ok except for the garish colours. The transformation process is very clever and well designed. His robot mode looks great, but is let down by the two "wings" on his back, which are again brightly coloured and a bit distracting. A lazy move by Hasbro.
    I would still recommend this figure to any TF fan, I would also recommend repainting it in his
    G1 colours and cutting off those wings.

  10.  Bumblebee is Awesome, Awesome to the max.

    Posted: 

    A re-work of a classic G1 character.
    It transforms in to a superb looking robot and has excellent transforming "mechanics" A very nice and eye catching piece.
