BenZonah: Nice looking figure. Posable with lots of hands. I don't care much about the transformation but it's decent. Hands and head tend to pop off. But great Alpha Trion legends figure.

BenZonah: A really great looking figure.  The stand for the head from the Japanese continuity is great along with the sword and extra hand.

Can't give it five stars due to QC issues. The head keeps popping off. That is really annoying. FansToys quality is going down, sad to say. Soon they will be on par with XTB.

While I hate the Rebirth, it would have been nice to include faceplates for that version of Cerebros.

BenZonah: This is great for a KO. Paint looks good, transforms fine. Don't know how paint and materials compare to the original. But it's worth the price.

RC's eyes look a bit funny but the RC head isn't important to me.

BenZonah: This figure looks great. Quality is good. However I am disappointed with the  poseability of the arms. You are unable to pose the arms out to the side. You kinda can but you gotta move some panels. Plus the mirrors seem like they are going to break if you do that.

FT's bot looks better than Takara but Takara looks more posable. I am satisfied with Outrider but disappointed it wasn't better quality.  Unfortunately, the FT decline to XTB quality continues.

BenZonah: Wow. This is a really great figure. Reminds me of the MP Ironhide a bit. Looks great. Transformation,  while a bit complex, is really impressive once you get the hang of it. Includes so many accessories including his back gun, jet pack and freeze gun hand. Quality seems great too.

BenZonah: Good figure, easy to transform. Very intuitive, so that you don't need the instructions. Bad face sculpt. Very top heavy, hard to balance. They should have made the feet a bit bigger for support.

BenZonah: Repaint of their Ironhide with different accessories. Still a really great figure. Reminds me of the MP Ratchet a little bit. Looks great. Transformation,  while a bit complex, is really impressive once you get the hang of it. Includes so many accessories including extra hands, wrench, welding guns, and jetback. Quality seems great too.

BenZonah: Nice set with simple transformation for both figures.  Dr Wu seekers have an issue with the arm cannons not staying on securely, so they may pop off during transformation. Powerglide is great for his size. The rainmaker seekers have a problem with the chest piece falling off.. I may have to glue it in place.

BenZonah: Nice set with simple transformation for both figures.  Dr Wu seekers have an issue with the arm cannons not staying on securely, so they may pop off during transformation Part of the front pops off on the rainmaker seekers. I will need to glue it. Seaspray repaint is surpringly posable like the original but lacks waist swivel. So can't give the set five stars but it's a great set overall.

BenZonah: Great figure. He looks great,, has a medium difficulty transformation. I'm a bit dissapointed with the cassettes cause they aren't very good. I understand there is the size to consider but they are basically boxes and not cassettes. I'm also disappointed that the chest doesn't open when you push the eject button and must be opened a different way.


Still, even with these defects, he's a great figure. I'm impressed by the way the panels fold into his robot form.
