(More customer reviews)Like most of the people who buy these Encore toys, I was the primary audience for these toys when they came out back in the 80s. I never had Ratchet or Ironhide, nor did any of my friends, so I never really played with them as a kid, and bought them primarily to re-live childhood feelings.
For this purpose, they can't be beaten. I opened these within seconds of bringing them into the house, and enjoyed them very much.
They are not very durable, and certainly not a good toy for children (how did we not destroy these things as children? they are so frail!). There is very little educational value to them as well. They really aren't as fun to look at or transform/play with as say Jazz or most of the other encore products, partially because they do not resemble their animated version at all.
Those negative observations out of the way, This is the best way to experince the classic toys. They are new, nearly identical versions of the originals, cost quite a bit less than an original, and you can play with them without worrying about damaging some rare toy from you childhood.
As a side note, these were sold by a company other than Amazon, and arrived quickly for a reasonable shipping cost, and were in pristine condition and packaged very well. Saved a few bucks by buying them both together too.
