To thank my 3000 subscribers, I review something quite special! Something I never thought I'd get the chance to review because of it's rarity, after all, it was only sold in one city for one limited run. It's Built To Rule Skyblast, from the ill-fated Energon series of Legoformers. How does it stack up to it's predecessor that I've already reviewed?
Release: March 23, 2010
- Just Plane Wrong: TJ admits Skyblast is better in this regards than Thundercracker, he still couldn't hope to get off the ground, even with eight wings.
- Milestone Celebration: For him hitting the 3,000 subscriber mark. Notably, he bought Skyblast specifically for this, the first time he ever did.
- Surprisingly Improved Sequel: Invoked. TJ notes Skyblast is better than Thundercracker and probably the best BTR he's played with...but that's not saying much.
- Take That!: Wonders how something with the odd, blocky proportions that Skyblast has could ever hope to be popular. Then notes if he were a spiky haired emo kid, then he'd be fine.
- This Is Gonna Suck: Reveals Skyblast was a first release...and ended up being marked down 60 percent.TJ: They couldn't sell the first one to come in the door! Prepare for pain!
- Unfortunate Character Design: Invoked. AJ points out how odd it is that they stuck the Autobot logo on his crotch.
