The Autobots and Decepticons brought their 10,000 year-old battle for the All Spark to earth with the awesome Transformers movie. And now you can take the battle home with all the new Transformers toys from Hasbro! Each one gives you the 411 on the different robots, as well as ratings for their strength, intelligence and courage. Here's our review of these new toys.
Transformers Fast Action Battlers: Optimus Prime
The mighty Autobot leader is ready to jump into battle for the All Spark with this new toy. His Power Hook is useless unless you swap the super-short cord for something waaaay longer, but he transforms in a snap and looks great in truck and robot modes!Rating:
Age: 4 and up.
Price Range:
Transformers Fast Action Battlers: Brawl
This super-tough Decepticon has it going on with a mean tank form and a sturdy robot form. He's a snap to transform and both forms are great fun to play with. His biggest problem is that his flick-fire missile rack falls off pretty easy.Rating:
Age: 4 and up.
Price Range:
Transformers Movie Deluxe: Autobot Jazz
This sleek sporty Autobot is ready to take on the Decepticons with style, speed and a thumpin' dose of tunes. He's also an awesome toy with a great vehicle mode, a slightly tricky transformation, and a very cool robot mode. If you want a Transformer to take home, Jazz is your man!Rating:
Age: 5 and up.
Price Range:
Transformers Movie Deluxe: Decepticon Barricade
This Decepticon hides in plain sight as the "To punish and enslave..." police car, with his little buddy Frenzy. He looks awesome, unfortunately he just doesn't cut it as a fun toy. His transformation is tricky, he falls over a lot and his spring-loaded arm goes off constantly, even in vehicle mode!Rating:
Age: 5 and up.
Price Range:
Transformers Movie Deluxe: Decepticon Bonecrusher
Whether he's a tough military construction vehicle or a bad-news robot, Bonecrusher loves breaking stuff. He's a solid transformer toy with a sturdy vehicle mode and a great claw-action swing arm you can use to grab things. Unfortunately he's a bit unsteady in robot mode.Rating:
Age: 5 and up.
