review time!

Bumblebee:
Im jaded on him right now considering I found some bad QC on him. Warped parts everywhere. I was so miffed that I ended up taking him back to the store. Unfortunately, like some twisted alternate universe, there were not other bumblebees there.... Anyways, he was reasonably easy to transform, and I did find a way to tuck his door part into his shoulder to make it less ugly. It is a pretty nice form though. It would have been an extra fan service to include his walking stick/cane. as reference to the comic he comes from. Hes does have an issue with his torso as his two halves can come apart.

Trailbreaker.
Out of the four, he was the easiest to transform. Like all the others, hes on the small side. On a positive note he feels solid and held together just right. The color scheme initially is what sold me on him, as it fits his original toy like a glove. My nitpick on him is that the headlights on his rook has a peg hole for a weaon which he doesnt have. it can be remedied by putting paxs blaster onto it.

Orion Pax:
This one had the most challenge, to me, transformation wise. Like trailbreaker, he has a poor choice in weapon placement, having the ax and gun be placed on the sides rather than the top. Even Kup gave you that option with his musket, giving multiple options for placement. His truckmode is surprisingly reminiscent to that post beast machines concept design for optimus eons ago. The sad part is that hes the same size as that cheap two pack optimus that was released at discount stores. But, hes also a splitting image of his original debut from the cartoon. I also wouldnt be surprised if they re package him with a different head for optimus down the line.

Megatron:
I have to say I enjoy this one alot. pretty solid transformer who is really fun to transform. Although not a bulky at generations scourge, hes still got a pretty large wingspan in his stealth mode. He also suffers the same weird pattern of having pegs holes for weapons he doesn't actually have, although they are used in the robot mode for his cannon(which is really the tips of the winged pegged together). Construction wise, you'll find that his torso doesnt quite peg in right, it feels like it supposed to but doesnt. I feel that given his complexity, he really deserved to be a voyager, and not a deluxe.
