High Octane Bumblebee Power Attacker

Transformers Age of Extinction High Octane Bumbl... : Target

Yeah, I saw this on the target website.

 

I don't collect Power Attackers, but I'm definitely getting the Vehicon. Just so I can have the rally fighter in my movie collection.

 

vehicon and junkheap are so bought. honestly except for the legs and clipon wheels, junkheap's molded detail is deluxe/voyager level.

 

I recently reported BBTS and Entertainment Earth having smaller versions of these photos here:
http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/trans...s-vehicon-junkheap-high-octane-bumblebee.html

However, these photos are larger and include in-packaging shots.

And just to clear up the ongoing name confusion: Because Hasbro likes to make things complicated, the price point is not identified by name on the figures' packaging. They are, however, referred to as "Power Battlers" on the back of Stomp 'n' Chomp Grimlock's packaging, as well as the placards at BotCon and SDCC, which tend to list final names in 95% of all cases:


"Power Attackers" is an older working name which still crept its way into online retailer listings (including Hasbro.com!), sometimes being used interchangeably with the final name on the same site. UK retailers are a mixed back as well (although most of them use "Power Battlers"), whereas German retailers consistently call them "Deluxe Attackers".

 

High Octane Bumblebee doesn't look half bad.

 

For those who don't know, Junkheap is the result of a collaboration with Waste Management:

I kinda like him.

 

c/o Snakas.

 

Call me old-fashioned, but I liked when hasbro made regular transformers figures. I personally hate these gimmicky things. And that's me trying to be as diplomatic as possible, since I know some people like them.

 

Yeah, everything was better before Transformers was ruined FOREVER in 1985.  

 

i still can't tell what vehicon's gimmick does...

 

gear drive on shoulder...I imagine you pull down the back kibble and the arm spins.

Those look really good. My son will want that Bee and Vehicon for sure.

 

Looking at the packaging art, I think the gun barrel extends whilst the chainsaw folds out and spins, creating some kind of insane death vortex.

 

Vehicon does not look that bad. Unfortunate that we did not get a deluxe of this guy.

 

Junkheap ain't bad.

 

ive never bought a power battler before. articulation looks decent like some of the old armada toys. that vehicon is sweet looking i really want a rally fighter so i may get it.

anyone get any power battlers? are they at least fun? i just dont want immovable blocks like the one steps

 

Don't expect much in the way of articulation from Power Battlers. Arms that aren't devoted to a gimmick get shoulder and maybe elbow joints, and that's about it. If there are hip or knee joints, they'll most likely be there for transformation and otherwise fairly useless.

The gimmicks are usually fun to muck around with, though.

 

yea i know the prime one didn't move around alot. the rally fighter vehicon looks like it might have some in the shoulders elbows and maybe hips. can't really tell on the knees...but i want a rally fighter so he's bought for the vehicle mode at least.
