Advantages: A brilliant "child friendly" version of a classic favourite retro toy !!! Disadvantages: Hasbro seems to have forgotten about Megatron (???)
which locks the robot down. When the switch has been pressed the friction mechanism is disabled and the toy works like an ordinary toy car and can be pushed along in free wheel mode ... this is a great feature and the Cyber Slammer toy in this mode becomes a great little vehicle for whizzing across the lino !!!
~~~ OPTIMUS PRIME ~~~
The Cyber Slammer I bought for my son was of course Optimus Prime. The heroic leader of the Autobots is perhaps the best known of all the Transformers and the Cyber Slammer version of Optimus Prime is a cute and chunky looking truck ideal for my little boy to play with.
When I gave the Cyber Slammer Optimus Prime to him he immediately pointed to the shelf with my own Optimus Prime on it ... which clearly demonstrated that he knew that this wasn't a regular toy vehicle (it also shows that Hasbro have ...
Advantages: 2 toys in one Disadvantages: Plastic design is easily broken
Over the last year or so my little boy has become quite a fan of Transformers, he's only 4 years old but can already name all the characters and even work out how to change the toys from one form to another. It was for his 4th birthday earlier this year that he asked for some new transformer toys and among the selection he received was Voyager Ratchet from the Transformers movie.
Voyager Ratchet is based on the classic transformers idea coming in the form of a vehicle, Ratchet is an American emergency services vehicle in green and red, but able to change into a robot with the help of a clever design that allows you to move around parts of the toy until it is completely "transformed" The toy is suitable for 5 years upwards and while this was too old for Christopher I didn't have the heart to tell his Great Granddad he was too young ...
Advantages: Bumblebee looks great as both a vehicle and as a robot. A strong and durable toy. Disadvantages: Once you get one you may get the collecting bug !!!
look (which appeals to both younger fans and adult collectors). Younger fans of the Transformers Animated cartoon will easily recognise their favourite heroes and villains whilst adult collectors seem to enjoy the unique way in which the animated series has captured the personalities and characteristics of some of their favourite robots !!!
In addition to this as toys they are both strong and durable and they "transform" easily and effectively.
The Transformers Animated Deluxe Bumblebee is one of my personal favourites. I mean who couldn't like Bumblebee ??? This great little Autobot is a hero ... and nothing scares him. He may be young and reckless but he is also brave and loyal ... he looks pretty cool too !!!
Bumblebee transforms very quickly from Autobot Warrior mode to Sports Car vehicle mode. As an Autobot Warrior his ...
