Our chum's growing as a collector.
Looking good, buddy!

I knew 3 pack Impactor had a new head. I hadn't realised till today that Mirage did too, much more like his original toy.

Yeah, if that head had been on the regular version, Mirage would change from an easy pass to a must have.

Had a fiddle with Siege Reflector last night. Robot mode is nice. Very Siegey.
I... think I transformed him... I couldn't really tell... I did what it said on the instructions, but... Well, where Soundwave and Shockwave's space-brick modes are silly yet fun, Reflector's is just silly. It's nothing. I can only hope the camera mode is a something!

Are those the actual weapons Mirage comes with? If so, that bumps him up the interest ladder

They are. Missile launcher is in two parts - missile and launcher - despite being the same colour.
I have the holo version and it's a fab toy.

I tried to watch those transformation videos but they made me want to stab my eye. Needed commentary. Reminded me of the very slow transformations on the Zone DVD.

My own prejudices are getting in the way here. That's a great looking toy but...
But...
He's a nonsense movie character! Barricade should be a Micromaster!
There, I said it.

Do we have a full explanation for this yet? The design for Red Alert shown in that article isn't the one in his box. He is a Private in the Ground Division, but his symbol isn't the medic one shown in the pictures.

Refectors 4 bot camera mode is weird.
Good job its not a real thing.

Post by Bogatan on Sept 21, 2019 23:22:58 GMT
But I suspect a 5 bot camera mode has potential.

Had a play with Gav's box set Refraktor yesterday. It's a very neat camera, to be sure, but whilst the individual figures' robot modes are (as with all of Siege) nice and solid, they are also (as also with all of Siege, alas) not particularly Earth-shattering. I'm glad it exists, but I'll not be rushing out to buy one.

Alas not. And after realising I need to have a bit of a slow down on toy buying, I'll not likely be getting it either. Even though it does look nice. It'll have to be the single-figure Impactor for me, alas.

Haven't opened mine yet. the packaging is however really very odd and possibly very very bad. Its a nice idea but you can barely see the toys inside despite the boxes size. Mirage looks like its been stuffed back in by someone and then Aragon has been broken up and lobbed in too. And then its all held in by the most ridiculous amount of thick plastic wires.
