Robot Mode

This knock off is based on an actual Transformers toy.

Instructions, go figure...
Image

In the original Transformers toy, the translucent blue plastic would light up with the touch of a button. For this knock off, the electronics have been omitted.
Image

Retains the same awesome articulation as the original Transformers toy.
Image

Wheels are hollow. That is my only complaint but it's a $2 toy.

Motorcycle mode is awesome.

Retractable kickstand.

The motorcycle windshield is detachable and makes for a fantastic makeshift shield. That's the reason I bought this toy.

Robot size comparison with GI JOE figures, Breaker (25th anniv.) and Law (Vintage).

Vehicle size comparison with GI JOE figures. Vintage figures make a more suitable fit.

For a $2 toy, this is well worth it. The robot retains most of its integrity from the original Hasbro Transformers version. Only the electronics have been omitted and the wheels are hollow on one side. The robot is very articulated and can interact well with 3 3/4" figures and fit vintage GI JOE figures. It's not a perfect fit but it comes pretty close. And you can always use the windshield as a weapon accessory.
