Halo 3 Series 2 Tan Spartan Soldier Scout Review

Halo 3 Series 2 Tan Spartan Soldier Scout
Average Reviews:

The one reviewer saying it is the right size must work for mcfarlane or something. The facts are its the wrong scale weapon. If you bought a Exclusive Walmart or Gamestop ODST the gun with it is also the same gun but made the right size for these guys. They just goofed & put the smaller scale regular ODST gun with the Scout. Thats the facts next time do your homework before you try to say someone else is wrong.
The other reviewer also admited his leg pops off & on. Who here would like a leg popping off as you pose it? Remember you got to pull outwards to pose alot of different poses which causes it to keep popping out. I have a few that are so bad i can twirl them like a helicopter blade. I bought over 50 you be amazed how many have it so they legs pop off so easy. Some are worse then others. The MC V2 seems to be fine the 5 i have. The EVA/Scout/EOD & few CQB have this issue. The EVA/Scout is the worst % to have this issue. This is from experience opening over 40 of series 2. I love these figures but if people do not speak up how will companies stop doing stuff like this & fix the issues? This series 2 is plagued with issues. Back in the day this company would of had some serious heat on them by the customers. Things change nobody likes to speak up cause there such halo fans. I am to but i do not like defective toys to this extreme. The way things are going series 3 will have even more issues. Mcfarlane makes some nice sculpts but if you really have a clue you know this company has the worst quality control ever.

Transformers 2 Revenge of the Fallen Movie Scout Class Action Figure Divebomb Review

I bought a toy I already owned just because I love this repaint so much! I love Ransack. But Divebomb in his Red Baron motif is awesome sauce. That said...there is just something awesome about a Transformer that turns into a WW1 German fighter biplane (Modeled after the Albatros D.III). His sweet red, black and white paint job looks great and makes me want to run around the house with him in my outstretched hand making pewpewpew noises.
Exactly like Ransack, Divebomb's transformation is little touchy and might require a bit of gentler handling than small children are ready for. His elbows are know to spontaneously explode during transformation, more to his own detriment than that of the Autobots. Luckily they pop back on. A lot of people have complained that this mold is really loose (especially the arms, wing parts and thigh plates) but my toy seems to fair pretty well, though the elbows do pop every now and again.
The bot mode is great. He's got this very stripped down, real skeletal look even a skull-like face. I really dig the way the plane wings convert to wasp-like wings in bot mode and his engine-block hat, although his feet are kinda meh. But, I guess they didn't have much to work with there fair enough.
Due to the finicky nature of this mold I would have to say this is not idea for younger children, but if you're buying for an older child or are an adult collector you owe it to yourself, and the future of good toy design to pick this guy up. If you seem him for around 10 grab him, if you see him for around 5 buy 2! I Loves me some Ransack's Red Baron repaint!
And remember parents: If you don't like challenging your children, BUY AGE APPROPRIATE.

Entranced with the romance and daring of ancient DECEPTICONS?? living on Earth, DIVEBOMB rescanned his vehicle mode to mimic one of the most famous of those old warriors. Unfortunately, paired with SKYSTALKERa"¢ to fight an AUTOBOT?? antiaircraft specialist, hea?TMs quickly learning the limitations of his new form. Add another warrior to your action-packed robot battles with this sinister DIVEBOMB figure. Start the excitement in robot mode and then convert him into biplane vehicle so he can a??soara? through the a??skiesa? in pursuit of his enemies!

Transformers Revenge Of The Fallen Scout Class Wave 4 > Reverb Action Figure Review

Transformers Revenge Of The Fallen Scout Class Wave 4 > Reverb Action Figure
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I wanted to like Reverb, I really did. But motorcycle transformers seem really hit or miss. A red, white and blue generic racing bike that is pretty solid in vehicle mode. Reverb is a repaint of Knock Out, who was also repainted as Trenchmouth and Backfire. If you're looking for a good motorcycle transformer try Brimstone or Chopster.
His transformations is finicky, awkward, and if you got a weakly molded one where the joint all pop apart like me, annoying. Reverb has dinky little arms and hands, smaller than the shoulder flair (for lack of a better word) made up by his back wheel. The motorcycle panels on his legs are just pegged-in and pop off with too much moving. I'd say the best part of him (and his repaints) are the frightening resemblance to Luchadores. I mean take a look at the bright colors and head sculpt?! I'm pretty easy going for a Transformer collector, but man did this one disappoint hard.
If you're buying for kids I'd say save your money unless they're older and they ask for him, otherwise you'll probably be signing them up for tears and yourself for a headache. For adult collectors, unless you're a completist, I'd say check out Trenchmouth, Backfire, and Knock Out and pick your favorite paint job among the four. I wouldn't bother with Reverb for more than a couple of bucks.
And remember parents: If you don't like challenging your children, BUY AGE APPROPRIATE.

REVERB loves being a DECEPTICON. Since the war began, hes got to travel from one end of the galaxy to the other, meet hundreds of interesting beings, and help to annihilate them. All that violence has been nonstop fun, as far as he is concerned. The other DECEPTICONS seem to enjoy being gloomy, but that doesnt bother REVERB. Hes not going to let them ruin his fun. Add this DECEPTICON defender to your collection! Convert from robot mode to a monstrous motorcycle in vehicle mode! Recreate exciting movie scenes or stage new battles of your own right there in your living room!
