Mini unboxing and review of the
A Hero is Born set.
First, I'm glad to have been able to buy this at my local GameStop. I saved around 30$ of shipping. Plus my Edge Platinum membership brought back the prices of the toys to the current normal full price. Meaning 40$can for the deluxe and 50$can for the voyager. Plus I get a bonus disco ball.
As expected, it's the simple "eco friendly" no plastics packaging with the accessories wrapped in brown paper. That box will find it's way to the recycling bin. It's worthless to keep IMO.
The bots are just perfect. I think those are the best representation of Orion Pax and Alpha Trion. Pax get his "gum pack" from Cup, but Mr Trion don't get Scourge's blast effect for some reason. Even if I don't care about the Vector Sigma thing, but it's fun to have it.
The Cup mold is not very intuitive to transform but at least the vehicle is perfect. As for the Scourge mold, it's a breeze and everything is tight.
I don't think the set is worth the extra 30 to 60$ some people have to pay, but if you can have it locally from Pulse or GameStop with free shipping at the normal price, it's totally worth it.
