Transformers DOTM Human Alliance Basic Reverb with Sgt. Detour Reviewed

The quality for the video wasn't the best, but I love Reverb's color scheme!

I like it. I'd call his "weapon" mode more of a shield mode or something. Looks like a shield to me. I'd like to have Ironhide holding this guy and the one who turns into the big gun. Forgot his name, the three wheeled dude. Either way, good review.

That makes more sense than a gunner station with no guns.

Really? I thought the quality was good (He uses the iPhone 4's camera like Peaugh does), maybe you watched it when it was still processing.

never taking it out of robot mode. it looks pretty damn great.

I love him, in all thre modes dammit! one problem though, do we really need EVERY TF Review to be 15 minutes? I mean, I could Review RID Galvatron and all of his modes in less then 10. Not that I will, but I just can't stand these long reviews! Not that it was a bad review or anything ^-^

Yeah, in the beginning it kept freezing up. But to check to see if it wasn't just me, I rewound it, and it had the same screen glitches at the same time. Maybe it was just me...

This figure blows.

No pun intended.

I dont know what it is with this DOTM toys, but ive only picked up a few here and there, but too be honest these figures are junk! Hell! I got sick of looking at Sen Prime and took him back, along with BB and HA Whirl and few more i bought thinking this line is cool, but actually its not! I think the first movie and ROTF line are the better lines personally and now with TJM and Marshalls getting in loads of ROTF and other figures for less than $7.00 who cares about this line! Sorry to be negative about this line, but until Hasblo gets the Gen line going again or getting back to classic figures like Scourge and Kup or even Warpath, im not giving Hasbro a penny of my money!

I'm going to justify this figure (whether it's the reality or not) by claiming that the weird modes and the coloring are all meant to be a Megazone 23 homage...

sooooo...who else smells a kitbash coming on?

Ok, I don't collect any sort of HA figures, but just out of curiosity, I must ask what his vehicle mode is supposed to be. I see that 'hover mode' is printed in the cardback, but that's insanity. It doesn't look like anything. It's like a half mototcycle, half giant industrial fan mishmash. Hurp durr toys are for kids, yeah yeah, I know. I just can't imagine what this is supposed to be.
Robot mode is pretty neat though.
