Review: Jet Vehicon

Readers might remember I got my shipment of Takara Vehicons from RK beginning of this month. Well, due to lots of distractions (ie. work) I haven't opened them... until now. We finally have some national holidays and I managed to take some photos of AM-16 Jet Vehicon during the break.

Takara Tomy Vehicons

Me and a friend pre-ordered some Takara Tomy AM-14 Vehicons and AM-16 Jet Vehicons from RobotKingdom.com a few months ago. Since the Jet Vehicons are Japan-only release (unless Hasbro change their mind later) we order a couple more of those.

After a long wait, our shipment of Vehicons finally arrived. Let the troop-building begin!



I think I have all versions of the Decepticon Vehicons now, except for Takara Tomy First Edition. (I do have the Hasbro FE though.) Maybe I'll do a version comparison in a future post...
 

TF Prime cars - size compare

If you have been collecting the latest Transformers Prime toys, you will notice that the size and scale of the Deluxe-class car figures have been shrinking with the newer waves.

Below is a comparison photo of the TF Prime Deluxe-class cars I have. From Bumblebee (First Edition), Wheeljack (RID wave 1), followed by Ratchet (wave 2) and finally Knock Out and Vehicon (wave 3). Yes I'm missing Cliffjumper. Somehow not keen to get him...

TF Prime Knock Out and Vehicon

The latest TF Prime RID wave 3 has finally hit our local retail shelves. The new characters in this wave are Decepticons Knock Out and Vehicon, and Autobot Hot Shot. I wasn't keen on Hot Shot as he is a recolour of Bumblebee. Good thing I managed to get the two new molds Knock Out and Vehicon on the first day they were released here!
