Voyager Class Grindor Review

Well i bought Voyager Class Grindor at Target about a week and a half ago, it was the last one they had. Im very happy with this buy. Now Grindor is a very nice figure, good details and all, he comes in the package with a mini Stalker Scorpinok. It doesnt transform but you can move the tail.

Helicopter Mode:

Well Grindor is a MH-53 Pave Low helicopter and just a repaint of movie 1 Blackout. Grindor in Heli Mode is not in scale with Starscream at all. His top rotors spin when you push a trigger on the back of the chopper, the rear rotors spin freely. On the bottom of the helicopter in the back, there is a cage that mini Scorpinok goes in, if you press the button, the cage opens to deploy him. Right above the cage there is a Decepticon symbol. Grindor has missiles on each side but they dont fire. In the front, under the right coc-pit, there is a mid-air refuel piece. He also has some doors carved into the plastic, you cant open them though. He has landing gear on the left and right and the front wheels are retractable.

Robot Mode:

Grindors transformations are ok, going from heli to robot isnt that hard but going from robot back into heli is pretty annoying and sometimes frustrating, but you manage. His paint job is really nice, i like it more than Blackout and Whirl but i like Evac has the best. The prop is a big nascence and also the cage as well, it doesnt open good on the backpack. Grindor has two shoulder rockets on each side. His eyes glow red in the right light. Theres a Decepticon symbol on his chest and backpack. the hands and arms have some good articulation. The legs are painted nicely with the gray, gold and black. His feet are huge but thats only because he has to carry the weight of his backpack.

Overall i rate this figure a 7 out of 10.

Voyager Class Starscream Review

Well i bought Voyager Class Starscream at Wal-mart just five days ago and im very impressed with him. He is my first Voyager so i was very exited when i opened him. He is a great figure to add to your collection, i really think you should pick him up if you're into the toys.

Bio:

The moment his sensor net registered MEGATRON going offline, STARSCREAM knew the battle was over, and the Allspark lost. He converted to vehicle mode and boosted for outer space, hoping to buy enough time to rally the DECEPTICON survivors. Returning from CYBERTRON bearing the marks won during his reign over the DECEPTICON army, he is focused on conquest. With a new army behind him, he has the strength to pursue his own goals, and perhaps, when the time is right, bring MEGATRON back.

Plane Mode:

His plane mode (F/A-22 Raptor) is amazing and blew me away. There is one Decpticon symbol on his right wing and it is surrounded by tattoos. On the left wing there is a Cybertronian symbol. His cock-pit doesnt open like deluxe Breakaway but its kool anyway. Not much kibble at all on the bottom of his plane, a whole lot less than movie one Starscream. Also Starscream has retractable landing gear. The only part of the plane i dont like is how the hands and missile launchers stick out too much in the back.

Robot Mode:

The transformation to robot from plane is pretty easy, but robot to plane is fairly harder. Ill be truthful, Deluxe Mudflaps transformations are harder than Starscreams. His Mech Alive system is by far one the top 5 bests. Starscream kind of has his thrusters on his back, they are the upper part of the wings but folded up. He does have chicken legs. The hands on him are huge, they're bigger than both his head and feet. If a persons hand is bigger than their head and feet, they really should see a doctor XD He has two missile launchers above both hand. Starscreams eyes glow red in the right light because he is a Decepticon.

I would rate this toy a 9 out of 10.

Deluxe Class Skids Review

Well i picked up Skids July 5th but got really lazy with my toy reviews so im doing it now. He is a great figure, i love him, I have the final copy toy which is the finished one. The one in the picture is the same as mine except the Skids that i have has see-through plastic windows instead of the blue paint.

Bio:

Because he is slightly less hyperactive than his brother MUDFLAP, AUTOBOT SKIDS has always thought of himself as "the smart one." He likes to point out at every opportunity. While MUDFLAP zips around like a maniac, AUTOBOT SKIDS prefers to impress his superiors among the AUTOBOT high command by behaving in a way that he thinks of as being mature, which usually involves talking nonstop about anything that occurs to him.

Car Mode:

His concept car is really nice, The design is pretty awesome. Hes got some very nice and detailed decals on both his left and right side, his hood is black along with the rims. Skids has no Autobot symbols on his car but in robot mode he has one. The license plate on the rear says "Skids" on it and above that theres a Chevy symbol. Also, there is a Chevy sign on the front grill. Unlike most deluxes, Skids has the mirror detail on his doors. There is also a spoiler at the end of the car.

Robot Mode:

The transformation from car to robot is pretty easy as you can say for the transformation from robot to car. His backpack doesnt have much kibble at all which is great and from the top of the backpack you can see the Chevy logo and the license plate that says "Skids" on it. His head looks kind of funny with the black and green, also his head has to look down all the time because the backpack pegs into place right behind Skids' head. The Mech Alive system isnt all that great, it just moves some pieces of his armor panels. His right arm is bigger than his left, it also punches when you press the button. There is one Autobot symbol under his chest. The feet are really good for posing. There are many different ways to pose him, he is great for putting on display.

I would rate this figure an 8 out of 10.
