What I really feared was missing out on the engineering involved in turning a car carrier into a robot and this one fits that bill just fine.
On question though, who is minimus ambus?
Also, I find Defensor super bulky. Groove making the chest piece is a cool look but the whole combiner just seems too wide, especially his legs. And I do not like that Rook figure, whose hands are not working at all.
Love t=what they did with the other protectobots though.
DON'T DO IT!
Keep MP UM. You won't regret it wj88!

Alpha Bravo is better in all facets, even if he's a size-class smaller. That's just me.

Isn't that what the MP was?
Also, haha I was right, The protectobots' alt modes are definitely futuristic. I would not call Hot Spot's alt mode earth based. It's design is far more cybertronian.

I meant height-wise. The Blackout mold is a small-ish Voyager, right?

I would have to agree, this line is the best we've had in a long time. I'd day it's better than G1

Rook was a drill tank, and there was another red jet. Then they had all of the original five guys. I am wondering if the box at version released overseas might have all seven characters? I'd love to see that.
