Tomopop Review: Transformers Generations Rattrap

Posted on by

One day Hasbro came along and announced a new Rattrap figure for Transformers Generations to everyone’s surprise. I mean, yeah, we wanted one, badly, but Hasbro isn’t exactly known for always making the figures fans want and at the proper scale (see: Universe Galvatron; Powerglide; Generations Tankor), but they know how to make a hit. They pulled out all of the stops making Rattrap, but did they make a perfect figure?

Eh, they might have made a few bad calls. Follow me after the jump to see what went very right and what went kinda wrong.

Toy Review – Transformers Generations Deluxe Rattrap

Posted on by

Rattrap getting on the list of Generations remakes was a surprise at the time. But not really an unwelcome one. Plus it brings us close to the main first season Maximal cast of Beast Wars being completely remade. We’re only short an Optimus Primal taking after the style of the original. But it might be nice to see the Predacons get some more attention… Continue reading

Review – Transformners 4 Age Of Extinction Generations Series Voyager Hound

Posted on by

When does a figure almost completely take a back seat to the accessories it comes with? It happens, and Hound may be one of those cases. In this review, see why an arsenal of weapons might be the real selling point, and why over half of the photos focus on just the accessories! Plus ExVee talks about the very obvious true identity of this toy. Silly marketing departments. Continue to the review!

Tomopop Review: Takara Tomy Transformers Generations Metroplex

Posted on by

For the longest time Transformers fans wanted two things: New combiner figures and a reissue of Fortress Maximus. The combiner part happened several times over, but has yet to be done in a way that really excites. As for the Fort Max reissue Hasbro said no many times citing safety laws and the massive figure failing drop tests. Takara Tomy, however, was able to make it a reality last year thanks to the much more lenient Japanese safety laws. Fans in the west, hoping for a compromise, begged Hasbro to make a new city-bot that would be just as impressive as Fortress Maximus in both size and features. Hasbro continued to say no, but in reality they were secretly working with Takara to make this guy: Transformers Generations Metroplex. 

This figure has seen four different releases now, each just a little different from the others.We’ll be taking a look at the Japanese retail version from Takara Tomy. It’s an exciting figure that does nothing but impress every step of the way. So join me after the jump as we check out all of the features in the figure that gave birth to the Titan class figure scale.
