Movie Toys: Automorph Technology

I don't have all the automorph toys but I'd like to hear about them!


Can we start a list of the Automorph Technologies and give them a rating!

1. BumbleBee Classic Camaro Deluxe, Front chestplate snaps down.
2. Voyager OP, Back of Cab crumples(?) to form lower legs. Sides with flames twist and movie in place.


Ratings:
1. B+, Good, but the button protrudes a bit too high.
2. B+, Really cool, but there's no morph button, you just pull

What else is out there folks?

Voyager Ironhide's entire lower legs + feet are one of the first and best Automorph engineering jobs I got to mess around with. They transform from two large blocks into two multipanelled legs just by pulling down the feet, pretty much.

Concept Camaro Bumblebee also has some impressive interlocky stuff in his chest/shoulders and lower legs, too.

Voyager Blackout - legs come down, front of chopper flips to reveal chest and head.

Rating: -37 x 10^428u9472974557925742. It's total rubbish, doesn't line up correctly in helicopter mode.

I would rate it a B. When you transform him back into vehicle mode, the front end often won't lock into place. Its as if the spring inside is either too stiff or worn out.

I would rate both BB's automorphs as solid A-. Classic 'Bee's hood and leg automorphs rock, same with CC BB.

Leader Meg's automorph gets an A+. (Wings, chest, legs) Prime's chest gets a B.

Yoyager Ratchet's legs get a B, and IH legs and chest together get a B+.

Jazz's chest gets a C+.

I like Starscream's chest automorph as simple as it is, so it gets a B-.

Blackout, C- as is, B+ once corrected.

Leader Brawl's chest, gun and legs altogether get a B+ from me.

Dropkick gets a C for his head popping out. Awesome figure, but lame automorph.

And those are all the figures with Automorph I've got. Barricade has none and I don't really count BC's automorph since it's just on his claw arm. AFAIK, Scorps has none, as well.

My nephew broke his Classic BB on the first transformation. Springloaded automorph sucks, especially for kids who don't read the instructions first.

I think I may have broke mine. He's pretty unstable and unaligned in robot mode.

Classic Camaro Bumblebee has automorph with his roof/rear windshield and his ankles, too.

Ratchet's feet are connected to his kneecaps and the inside of his legs which bulge a little.

Starscream's whole chest is one big automorphin'... uhh... thing.

Leader Prime's head pops up and his chest windows separate at the push of a button. His gun swivels onto his hand as you slide a lever forward.

Jazz's roof, when clicked into place in robot mode makes his head pop up.

Dropkick's doors open when you lift his front wheels and sides of the truck hood during transformation.

Deluxe Brawl's tank treads rotate up around his head.

Woo, I'd like to see pics of that! Maybe I'll look on youtube!

I think automorph is one of the best gimmicks I've seen so far! (I've seen some bad ones, ugh who can forget "pretenders"... freaky)
