It's a little late, but finally my final Combiner Wars set arrived from Big Bad Toy Store. This is something I've been waiting for, for a long time. Up until now I thought it might never happen, but they finally made a combiner out of some of the G1 Autobots!
From left to right we have: Prowl, Mirage, Optimus Prime, Sunstreaker, and Ironhide. Yes, I know that technically this set is supposed to be combined with some white version of Optimus Prime, but no Hasbro, you already have enough of my money!
Prowl is by far my favourite of the four. His design and color scheme is the most striking. Ironhide comes in at a second. Together they look like a formidable team. But when combined...
Oh baby, this is something I've been waiting for forever. I still don't know what to call this guy. Ultra Prime? Super Prime? Mega Hyper Turbo Championship Edition Optimus Prime? Whatever it is, I love this combiner. A lot of people hate the hip joint section, but if you throw away the instructions and just straighten up the legs fully, you get a robot that stands firm and towers over most other rivals.
Now I'm just waiting for Combiner Wars Cyclonus to get a team of Decepticons for himself. That would also be sweet. Are you listening, Hasbro? I won't buy your white Optimus Prime, but I will give you my money for a proper set of Decepticons for Cyclonus, haha.
