Transformers Generations Combiner Wars Superion Collection Pack

This is a great toy (or toys). I had the original Superion gift set back in the 80s, but this toy is way better. The articulation is great on all the individual bots as well as on Superion. The only extra parts to form Superion other than the weapons are the hands and feet - the head and chest plate are all integrated into the Silverbolt figure. I also, like that Silverbolt is only a little bit taller than the arm and leg bots (in the original toys, Silverbolt was way taller than the others and looked out of place). No quality issues with my set other than PowerGlide - I don't know why Hasbro includes PowerGlide with this set - not too impressed with his figure and my copy at least doesn't stay together very well in jet mode and he isn't really necessary (he just adds onto Superion's gun). I am not too crazy about the G2 colour scheme, but it grows on you. I also, have the Combiner Wars Cyclonus toy and I think substituting Cyclonus for Silverbolt as the body for the combiner looks even better! The colours on the G2 Aerialbot arms and legs work work fairly well with Cyclonus and I generally prefer the Cyclonus toy to Silverbolt. I love Transformer jets so the Aerialbots are my favorite combiner team. I do think the regular price is a bit high for this set - when you compare it to the cost of buying the individual Combiner Wars toys, but I picked it up when Amazon had it on sale for a more reasonable price.

I caught it on a good sale for $78, which is significantly lower than its MSRP at $99.99. In reality I would give this 4 1/2 stars if I could, as there are touches of disappointments. The GOOD: The paint work is spot on. They put in a ton much work into the G2 'flight team' decoration, as well as little details such as painted silver missiles on Air Raid. When in the combined Superion form, he holds up pretty well and not too heavy in any one area. The BAD: Some slight quality control issues. A Combiner Joint cover on Silverbolt is looser than the others for some reason. Powerglide is the worst of the bunch: his legs do not want to stay together in plane mode, and his rear flaps love to fall off. The MEH: Firefly and Skydive are identical molds, so something is lost going for the G1-G2 authenticity. The 4 limb Transformers have almost the exact same transformations, so he's much closer to something like Voltron than say, Devastator. He is overwhelmingly bright blue, much more so than the pictures show, so if that's not your thing you might be better off with the Takara or the original decorations. If you haven't picked up any Aerialbots yet and don't mind the G2 decoration, this set is a solid solution. The mini-poster is a nice touch. Overall, for the sheer convenience of having all the Aerialbots at once, this set is hard to pass up.

This set is a good back-up choice if the individual Aerialbots are not in your collection. While the colors are G2, the fact that this is a boxed set with all original Aerialbots (no Alpha Bravo) plus Powerglide compelled me to purchase it. Plus, the cost is cheaper than buying the figures individually.

My son like it, it’s perfect for a rare collection of combined wars. The delivery was efficient and it’s surrounded by a bubble wrap.

I love having this transformers with the rest of my Transformers, it was just as I hope it would be
