Transformers Deluxe Movie Collection 2 - Generation Thrust Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This figure is a great Transformer for a young fan. I watched the original cartoon as a child (and still do on the HUB network)and the cone-head seekers were my favorite baddies. This is a VERY good G1 reproduction figure, even my mother recognized him from the cartoon. The transformation is very easy, and a little disappointing but all around a great figure.
*robot mode*
The robot mode gets a 10/10 score for looks but a 8/10 for functionality. His wings are so close to his shoulders that there is about 45 degrees that the arm can rotate, without the turbines on . With the turbines on there is about a 20 to 25 decree rotation left over, the turbines can be moved to the lower "ankle wings" but that is a personal preference. The figure looks great. The colors are rich and vibrant. The molded detail is very impressive, and the face sculpt has a great scowl on it and he just LOOKS like a bad guy.
*vehicle mode*
The jet mode is . . . . ok. 6.5/10 for looks and functionality. The top half of the jet is great, but the bottom half . . . . not so much. There is an empty cavity where the "chest" is and he has type 1 VHS (visual head syndrome). The figure locks in tight at all points but the underside takes away from the enjoyment from the figure. The figure has fold out landing gear that can fold out and adds to the realism to the jet.
So over all the figure is 8.75/10. A good solid figure but a little more could have been done. I really like this figure and look forward to every re-mold Hasbro can put out.

THRUST was great to have around during the early days of the war, when the DECEPTICONS won victory after victory. His thundering engines and shouted threats terrified the few AUTOBOTS that stood against them. It wasnt until later, when the AUTOBOTS got organized enough to put up a real fight, that THRUST began screaming like an alpha unit and fleeing at the first sign of danger. Race into action with this fearsome THRUST figure! In robot mode with his twin cannons and two firing missile accessories, this fighter is as tough as they come.
