Years ago, when I first watched this episode of Beast Wars, I still had no interest in Transformers at all. I had been bought – and given away – a solitary toy, watched most of G1 during school holidays as a teenager but didn’t feel any real connection to it so Beast Wars really had […]

The More Traditional Side Of Transformers Gaming
February 21st, 2018 Simon Plumbe It doesn’t matter what aspect of Transformers drew us into the franchise – whether it was the toys as a child growing up, the comics, the movies or the television shows (in my case in particular Beast Wars) – it feels as if there’s a constant need from Hasbro to ensure that the brand is […]

Transformers: Age Of Extinction – Leader Class Optimus Prime Review
September 16th, 2017 Lee Coombes I enjoy the Michael Bay movies. There. I said it. However, with each movie, I make an empty promise to not buy as many of the toys this time around. Of course I break that promise every time. Usually what leads me to break that promise is a sense that I have to complete a […]

Transformers Toy Review: Titans Return – Deluxe Class Sergeant Kup with Flintlock
June 24th, 2017 Lee Coombes I don’t know what it says about me, but two of my favourite Transformers characters are Ironhide and Kup. The two cantankerous, bashed up old warriors. Both have similarities in their characters and both have had some pretty naff toys over the years although Kup can claim to be coming out ahead in that respect, […]

Transformers Toy Review: Titans Returns Broadside with Blunderbuss
May 25th, 2017 Nigel Bradley The Generation 1 triple changes have been some of my favorite characters: Astrotrain who changed from a realistic NASA space shuttle to an old fashioned train was a cool contradiction of technologies. Octane was a fun anti-hero who, although he was a Decepticon, played the part of hero due to being hunted down by Galvatron. […]

Combiner Wars – Legends Class Powerglide Toy Review
April 14th, 2017 Lee Coombes When I was a kid, I had one Transformers VHS tape. It contained two episodes that I watched over and over again because that’s all I had until a few years later when my step-brother came along with more. Those two episodes were season three’s ‘Call Of The Primitives’ and ‘The Girl Who Loved Powerglide’ […]

Titans Return – Deluxe Triggerhappy Toy Review
April 14th, 2017 Lee Coombes Here we go with another Deluxe Titans Return review. This time I’ll be looking at Decepticon Triggerhappy and his Titan Master partner, Blowpipe. This figure came in wave 3 and what a pleasant surprise he was. I was born too late and missed the first coming of the Transformers. I got the tail-end of it. […]
