    Pointblank arrived. He is fun! I can’t wait for Sureshot to finish off the Autobot targetmasters.

    (I just wish Hasbro someday imports the Takara version of the nebulons and sells them in a multi-pack.)

    Today’s Target finds. I’m loving pointblank a lot more in hand than I thought I would and I already had him as a top priority to get in this wave of deluxes. The soft plastic parts on skullgrin are more solid than I thought and I just hope they hold up over time. Hopefully deadend appears soon. Still need to open up my crankcase image.jpg

    Nice! I have UW Superion, and I can confidently say he's one of my favorite figures. Just missing Alpha Bravo to round out the team.

    Ok this is a back from the past and abit of the present. I actually got Terradive last week while Skyhammer arrived and I bought Override today.

    I will discussed by characters-

    Terradive
    Ok he's one of the figures I wanted for a LONG time! I loved how unique he is as his plane form is rarely used and his robot form too like the nosecone pointing upward than down. It was by random chance I had another look for him on Ebay and there was a preowned for £25. That's cheap compared to the others I saw which the next lowest was at £70 and without his spear/ trident. Also super lucky that I was the only bidder!
    Now I got him in hand, he lived up to my expectation but being an older toy, he definitely got flaws. Example is that his left elbow joint is loose and it's not the ball type of joint. Probably can be fixed with the super glue technique but I'm more afraid of doing that myself. Also his spear/ trident is indeed fragile so I gonna keep that in storage than to displayed it incase the figure falls down!

    Skyhammer
    Originally it started on Twitter when someone problaimed that the upcoming Legacy Tarn is the BEST voyaguer toy of all time. No surprised many disagree and one comment about Skyhammer being the best voyager. I never heard of him before so I look him up and watched some reviews and ended up became interested in him. I found a pre owned for £10 and bought it.
    That £10 was definitely a catch as my biggest grips is he's missing his missiles pods! I'm not crying over a river over it per say but what can I do? I have no real desire to send him back as I can lived without it. Also no one is listing the pods on their own on Ebay and even then I wouldn't paid £15 for it (seen other seller selling the accessory for that much and more)! I wouldn't say the seller lie per say as it did say it had accesory aka that mech alive gun blade thing and even with the offical packaging, the pods are hidden anyway?
    Overall he is good in both modes. That being said, I kinda regret buying him now eventhought he was cheap? Not a bad toy, just more of bad timing? Basically had I bought Override first (will explained below), I wouldn't had bought Skyhammer.

    Override
    Basically the toystore Toysmths had reduce further to £24.99 (on release, she was at £32.99). I was indecisive at first cos I visit the store, saw the price and went home to rewatched past reviews on her. I was working late the next day so I couldn't visit the store again but checking online, it said she was sold out at my local store (there was one left beforehand). Oh boy I was glad of the quantity error as I visit the store again this morning and they indeed still got one left so I immediately bought her!
    Overall she is again a great toy. I liked the gun can stayed attach to the vehicles and become her backpack of sort! The only annoyance is that imperfection on her head. Basically abit of red blob is on her side of her head near the left fin. Also I fine her limbs abit out of proportion like either her legs are too long or her arms are too short when compared to Terradive and Skyhammer?
    Also an unpopular opinion (and it was why I didn't buy her at release) is that eventhought I KNOW she is 99% accurate to her cartoon self (just missing the blue parts on her thighs and other colours in vehicles forms), I just wish her car mode was more aerodynamic? Like the front part is round and smooth cos of her legs then the canopy and onwards just become chunky/ blocky? Like she suppose to be the fastest car on her planet and she not all that aerodynamic in her car mode?
