Fans Toys Apache (Third Party Transformers G1 Springer)

Apache (AKA Springer)

Car Mode: Springer looks good in car mode, though the back of his car mode doesn’t quite look right to me. Maybe I have something mistransformed. His colors are perfect.

Helicopter Mode: Springer looks great in helicopter mode, easily the better of his two alt modes. He comes with two swords, one in silver to be his weapon and one in green to be his rotor. That’s a really nice touch.

Robot Mode: Springer’s is impressive in robot mode. He’s big and beefy and his die cast parts give him some weight. I did have a hell of a time transforming him. His die cast chest needs to slide up and it did not want to budge. After working on it for an hour it finally moved.

Overall: Springer is a really nice toy, but there are other third party Springers at this scale.

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.
