andrasteI may have celebrated waking up early for the first time all week by going out and buying two packs of Robot Heroes Transformers figures. I had sworn off buying more action figures since I don't have any more space, but these are so tiny and adorable and will look so awesome on my desk at work I couldn't resist.
I have wanted the tiny Starscream ever since I saw pictures of him online; he's half way through blasting off and has the best evil smirk. I also got Optimus Prime and Ravage - chibi robot kitty! - and Mirage came packaged with Starscream.
The packages I didn't buy had Rodimus Prime & Insecticon (just a generic Insecticon, it seems, no mention of whether it's Kickback, Bombshell or Shrapnel) and Grimlock & Shockwave. Is it just me, or are those incredibly random pairings of characters? Optimus vs. Ravage seems like such an unfair fight, and why Mirage with Starscream? I understand the desire to have an Autobot and a Decepticon in each pack, but they could have at least put Starscream in with, say, Red Alert. At least Grimlock trod on Shockwave that one time.
Also, I feel the need to point out how awesome Teletraan 1, the Transformers Wiki, is. Here is their description of Robot Heroes Prime:
As with all Heroes figures, Optimus Prime is a simple, yet well-detailed two-inch tall figurine with exaggerated, cartoony proportions. He is sculpted holding his Ion Blaster rifle in his right fist and his left arm in a pointing pose. He is also love.
