Welcome to Archaznable this is my own digital virtual playground and a virtual cabinet of my own toy collection. This is were I usually store all of my toys that I usually have and write an article review about it. Actually this site is re-designed countless of many times already so expect for another re-design and re-structuring of the site in the following years. I’ve been in collecting toys since my childhood days.

Transformers Pepsi Convoy Review

Posted by archaznable On September - 11 - 2009

Here is a selection of photographs and a review of the Transformers Pepsi convoy. It doesn’t matter if you are a small child still playing with cars or a grown adult who plays online casino (www.casino.com) in their spare time, everybody loves Transformers. I have taken pictures so you can see how it looks throughout all stages of it’s transformation. I hope you find this interesting and it helps you make the decision if you want one.

All I can say is this one is just good for display on a truck mode only with a Pepsi Can mounted on its trailer truck  but for the robot and poseability its horrible you can only move its arms upward and downward  also you cant move its head. Then the legs cant go sidewase or cant even do a split unlike like those in some TF like Jetfire or some MSIA or EMSIA. Well on the transformation side its pretty simple to master.

HCMPro Gundam Dynames

Posted by archaznable On September - 10 - 2009

The HCM Pro Dynames

The HCM Pro Dynames is a very good toy and fun to play with althou just be careful with some of its small parts. The articulation is superb all joints are tight. The Dynames includes one GN Sniper Rifle, 1 Beam saber, 1 small saber, a pair of hands one close fist and an open palm. An open tripod and a close tripod for the GN Sniper, two large shields, and 4 small shields. One extra head for a big eye or some sort. An extra clip for the GN Sniper Rifle, a small handler for putting the GN Sniper Rifle on the left or right shoulder. So what did I miss ah two extra antenna’s that you can swap for the extra head. Well that’s what the HCMPro Dynames has.

Super slash hehehe

Well that’s it maybe this is the best Gundam OO figs so far. I love the articulation and the playability factor on this one. Another thing that I love with this one is the GN Sniper Rifle. The details on the rifle is cool. I like the grey finish with a minimal black. This is highly recommended althou the only disadvantage on this is the fig is too small but what the heck small. I tell yah your gonna love playing this one.

ROTF Rampage Review

Posted by archaznable On September - 9 - 2009

Rampage I guess is a part of Devastator but this one is a deluxe class cause I’ve heard that when you completed a Deluxed class separate you can’t transform them to Devastator. Instead you needed to buy the whole box set instead of a separate one to form Devastator. Talk about milking us way to go for marketing on Hasbro’s side.

3611130214_f5b76ecdc6_b

Well on for the Review … at first when I look at Rampage he was some sort of a Bulldozer. With a bright orange or a yellow color like the one on Bumblebee colors. I love the vehicle mode of Rampage the details was really good on this one. Plus I really like the rubber tracks did I say rubber tracks. Yes folks its rubber alright unlike the other toys that is pure plastic when it comes to a track. The only sad part there is that the tracks and the big wheels is not moving at all when you move it. Instead there are 4 small wheels below them to easily move the vehicle.

ROTF Rampage

The transformation is somewhat difficult cause of its extreme looks and architecture. The rubber tracks is very difficult to collapse cause you didn’t know where the holes of the track should collapse or break it. Another part of its transformation that was very annoying or difficult to handle is its feet and the big shovel at the back. At first you doesn’t have a clue on how will he stand up straight cause his feet was very thin. Well the answer to that is the big shovel at the back. The shovel at the back can become an additional feet to support the whole body. I think that this is the first Transformers that I saw that has a 4 legged feet.

The looks of Rampage in robot mode is very menacing but his face does looks like Brawl. The plus part on his robot mode is again his rubber tracks it acts like a whip that can slice some autobots apart. The downside of his robot mode is his articulation. The arms can only move up and down or side ways he doesn’t have an elbow joint so his arms is fairly straight enough. His legs is synchronized or moved the same you can’t move it individual part of his legs. The only moving individual part is his knees that can be flipped backwards.

I think that Rampage is a triple changer he is on his robot mode, a bulldozer mode and a jackhammer mode which I forgot to transform him on that mode hehe. Well over all Rampage is good he is the most weirdest transformers that I ever had. He does looks like a lego construction thingy when you look at him from afar. I say this is a good buy. By the way Rampage is very photogenic in all aspects cause of his awesome looks. For the score I’ll give him around 7/10.

ROTF JET FIRE Review

Posted by archaznable On September - 8 - 2009

Over all this is really big when I look on some video review of the comparison between LC Jetfire and LC Optimus Prime because I don’t have him yet in Leader Class. LC Jet Fire has the same height but a little bit lower on robot mode. But in the vehicle mode LC Jet Fire is very long. How long the Black Bird mode well it’s like you can take or put the LC Jet Fire above your arm on to your elbow. That’s how long LC Jet Fire is. LC Optimus Prime vehicle mode width is just on it’s after burner fuselage thing hehe. That’s how small LC Optimus Prime vehicle mode is compare to LC Jet Fire.

It is movie accurate it got its arm machine gun where you can put it on its arm. And then my favorite was its cane… lol behold the power of Jet Fire’s cane. This is also were you often see it on the movie. When transforming to vehicle mode this is were all the frustration begun. Because of its big size it’s easy to transform him the only problem is that it’s hard to align him straight. And you will often experience parts that will fall down during the transformation. But don’t worry you can put some pieces back together again easily because the connectors are ball joints.

Robot mode is really awesome you can see a lot of some fine detailing of it. I really like the slashed Decepticon insignia on it’s tail. I also really like his spike beard lol. The mech alive feature is on the middle of it’s chest. When you push it down you will hear LC Jet Fire talks saying “Jet Fire is my name” funny thou his voice doesn’t sound like old when you hear him talk. Then you will see some of the light and some slight movements of his head. While on vehicle mode there is also a botton where you could press to hear the sound of his sonic boom thrusters.

Over all this is highly recommended the only thing is that he is rare for some reasons. But if you go to a toy store and see this guy grab him. It’s worth every peso. Really love his vehicle mode because it resembles a real life aircraft. His vehicle mode is an old SR-71 Black Bird. Also don’t worry about his pointed tip it’s not hard its rubber to avoid injuring your fingers while transforming him.

Over all I give him 8.5/10 why because it’s lack of articulation of this guy. By the way on the packaging LC Jet Fire is Autobot’s but when you look at his tail it is a Decepticon. I think you might be confused here because Jet Fire originally came from Decepticons he switches side because he is dismayed by the leadership of the Decepticons which is a good thing thou lol. So grab him now lol but it will cost you 2,999 pesos hehe.
