Transformers: Generations: Siege Battle Masters Wave 3 (Caliburst, Smashdown)

Caliburst

Previous Mold Use: Siege Blowpipe

Caliburst is a black and purple repaint of Blowpipe. He looks fine. He comes with a new firing effect. I still think they are silly.

Smashdown

Smashdown’s robot mode appears to be inspired by the mythological minotaur and turns into a hammer. I really like the hammer mode. His robot mode is alright, but I think it would look better walking on all fours as a bull rather than as a minotaur.

Overall: So, after doing Targetmasters as Headmasters, which was idiotic and made no sense, now we’re going to get Targetmasters? Seriously, I don’t think Hasbro knows what they’re doing half the time. These are great toys, and I highly recommend them, but would really rather we get all the real Targetmasters, and not new ones like Smashdown.

Thanks for reading!

I’m 36 years old, and I work in network tech support for a public school system. I am a huge fan of Star Trek, Transformers, Harry Potter, and Marvel Comics as well as numerous other fandoms. I’m a big sports fan, especially the Boston Red Sox and the New England Patriots. I collect toys (mostly Transformers but other stuff too), comic books, and Red Sox baseball cards. I watch an obscene amount of television and love going to the movies. I am hopelessly addicted to Wizard Rock and I write Harry Potter Fanfiction, though these days I am working on a couple of different original YA novels.
