King Poseidon

Photobucket
I didn't expect to buy a G1 figure, but I couldn't resist to get the Seacons set...
Master Force is my favorite G1 series. The Seasons played a quite important role in the series. I was surprised to hear a re-issue of the Seacons in G1 color was planned. I couldn't afford a TF combiner when I was a kid. I don't have much interest to the G1 toys anymore now. It is nice to get Piranacon as my first G1 combiner, right? ^_^
Lets enjoy a little gallery for this limited edition re-issue!

You can't expect much for a US version package, not bad though.

Nice illustration on the box.

It is nice to have all 7 bio cards, with the original G1 illustrations.

Piranacon. I like the name King Poseidon more.

Photobucket
Snap Trap. Still Turtler is better.

Photobucket
Skalor.

Photobucket
Seawing.

Photobucket
Nautilator.

You don't have the chance to see the robot mode of those small guys actually.

Turtler's head is green instead of black! G1's one is better! Price makes difference...

Photobucket
Who can remember the names of all Seasons except Turtler's?

Photobucket
All Seacons are target masters!

Photobucket
"You guys go and bite the Autobots!"

Ugly creatures from the sea.

To be honest, I don't really enjoy playing the Seacons. G1 toys are not for this era.
I do admire myself to be so imaginative when I was a kid. I could get so much fun with these bricks. I love G1, but I don't want to play with bricks anymore. I want every G1 character can revive in a new design as in the classics series. However, you should still get the Seacons if you want to fill up the gap in your childhood memory.

天下無双

Photobucket
Is Drift the second comic character got a toy release? I didn't read the Drift comic, but I really like its design. A TF with sword is always cool, isn't it? Drift even has a big sword and 2 daggers! The large Samurai Kanji and the phrase "Tenka Musou" (the best of the world) on the sword make Drift awesome. Hasbro is doing well recently, I mean the Generations series, not Power Combiners. :P

The package is not bad. Just hate the Toysrus sticker the Hong Kong store put on it!

Car mode

Very nice sport car. The doors can be opened!
Actually I think it is very stupid to put a big Kanji on the doors :P

Robot mode
Photobucket
I like the big sword can be put on the back.

Photobucket
You can hardly find a TF that can hold the sword by both hands!
"Eat my Tenka Musou blade!"

Photobucket

Photobucket
The daggers are great, can be stored on the doors.

Photobucket

Photobucket
Of course you need a fight with the Skeleton Samurai Bludgeon.

Drift is a must-have for all TF fans. You will not be disappointed with this figure. I am now waiting for the blue remold Blurr. I wonder how the big sniper gun can be stored inside the sport car.

Battle Blades Optimus Prime

Photobucket
I didn't expect a new mold of voyager size movie Prime, but Hasbro did it! I think everyone would agree this is a simplified leader size Prime. The sound effect was gone, but the better comes, the Matrix of Leadership! It is the first time the Matrix to be found in a movie toy. I really love this Prime. I am looking forward to the Japanese Battle Forks version and the voyager size Jetfire to combine!

The package doesn't come with the "Hunt for the Decepticons" sticker. Maybe I got the production sample?

Truck mode

The truck mode is much better than the movie 1 voyager size Prime.
The windshield doesn't fit well just because I didn't transform the shoulders correctly.

Robot mode

He got the ion busters,

Photobucket
He got the blades,

Photobucket
and He got the Matrix!

Tornado attack!

Wake up!

Lets hunt for the Decepticons!

Banzaitron is not here, no problem to fight the first round with Bludgeon.
