Transformers Alternity Cliffjumper

eckoy — Sun, 17 Apr 2011 10:01:13 +0000

I recently got Transformers Alternity Cliffjumper and I have to say that at first I didn’t dig the huge chest when he is in robot mode – but once you get to play with it – the design eventually gets to grow on you as it did with me

Transformers Alternity Cliffjumper

The leg transformation is a bit of a pain but the design is top notch in terms of posing the figure. The weight distribution is just perfect – as compared to other Alternity Transformers. My Alternity Convoy Nissan GT-R usually has some problems standing upright.

In the end, despite the bulky chest Transformers Alternity Cliffjumper – Suzuki Swift – is sturdy, very poseable and has a good vehicle and robot mode!

Transformers Movie Optimus Prime Model kit?

eckoy — Mon, 28 Mar 2011 11:47:02 +0000

I am pretty sure it will not transform to a truck – but this model kit of the Movie version of Optimus Prime looks so nice that you would care less about his other modes.

At least from these prototype images – you can see how detailed the new Transformers model kit looks like – ready to be one’s fresh canvass! Woot!

I still do not know why its called a dual model kit – probably it transforms too? Well for now, I will just stay tuned to the latest mecha news for details on this!

This kit is from Takara Tomy!
