![]() The blue is about as bright as the green of Cosmos, and so Pathfinder is playing absolute havoc with my colour blindness, because my brain keeps trying to tell me she's green anyway, and I am used to seeing this mould in green, not blue. The yellow parts are still yellow, the stickers are the same as the reissue Cosmos' stickers and the head is still painted red. It's a nice toy, I just find it a little dull, both in terms of the actual colours and the appeal of this toy - 6/10Įssentially, Pathfinder is Cosmos done in blue instead of green. I'm not a huge fan of this recolour, but I suppose Takara didn't have too much room to move with all the colours out there already. He almost looks like Bumblebee's ghost, since he's Bumblebee in black and white. Of course, Bug Bite was the natural choice for this mould, and being a Renegade anyway, it was always going to be a Destron. In a way I'm kind of over Bumblebee variants, so I'm glad this one is a Destron - I already have red, yellow and metallic blue Autobots in this mould. He has the cartoon Bumblebee face that the TCS Bumblebee had, which isn't surprising, since the set is essentially a recolour of that pack. So full marks for making this a new colour scheme. Interestingly, there's never been a white version of this mould before - there's been yellow, red, blue, orange, silver, black even metallic blue and grey but this is the first white version. ![]() Overall, this is a pretty good recolour, it's certainly different to Powerglide and I can just imagine this guy as demonic - 8/10ĭone in white and black, Bug Bite has the silver back, with a rubsign and a Destron logo on his chest. He has silver eyes, which helps with the whole dark and sinister thing he's got going. The indigo is very dark, and with such a dark face this guy looks positively evil. ![]() The plastic feels a little cheaper than on Powerglide, although not by that much, and it may just be an illusion caused by the new colours. The sticker than runs down Powerglide's chest has been rotated and now runs across his chest, so that a Destron logo can fit onto his chest. He's almost a mirrorverse Powerglide, which is appropriate since he's now clearly an evil character. On with the show.Ĭlick here for my fanfic tech specs for Bad Boy, Pathfinder and Treads.Ī light grey A-10 with indigo parts where Powerglide had grey. Pathfinder and Small Foot are female characters. Thanks to Goktimus Prime for the tech spec translation.Īll six names are Tonka Gobots names, and allegiances have been carried over, and Bad Boy, Bug Bite and Treads have Destron rub symbols. The set has a common function: Dimensional Expeditionary Research Team, and the single tech spec card basically suggests they're actually Gobots (it says they're from a separate universe), and are disguised as Transformers. Since these are sold only as a set, and are a limited set, I'm not going to write full reviews, instead I'll mainly focus on the differences between these toys and the originals, with links to the original toy reviews for more detailed reviews of the six moulds.
