I CAN NOT believe that Hasbro has the gall to sell this pack for over $5 (or at all!!). . . . . . . Yes, i bought this pack of 5 for my 5 year old and YES of course i try to transform them before he has the chance to (to see if it works well enough). I’m just simply disgusted with the quality of this toy. The instructions are terrible and when you try to bend anything, there goes an arm or a leg getting snapped off. . . . . . . with the tiniest amount of pressure. . . . . . I think Hasbro should’ve PAID SOMEONE to test these toys before putting them on the store shelves. SHAME ON YOU hasbro!! Take my word for it. If you buy these you will just have pieces of transformers all over your house. YUCK!!!

If you didn’t already know, this is a 5-pack of “Legends” sized repaints of various characters from the transformers franchise. The molds are simplified versions of molds coming from the cybertron line, and as such they had to remove the ratcheting joints of the originals with a simpler, less expensive ball joint, which leads to the limbs popping off as noted in the other review. The transformations are quite simple, though skydive in particular can be tricky, but much less so than his larger counterparts. The instructions are easy enough to understand if one can follow a pictograph. Overall, the set is quite entertaining, especially with the new decos the figures have, which are quite awesome
