Re: ice cream twins worth it?

The Icream truck is a nice addition the robot forms are (although small) different from there finale car versions enought to warrent buying them I would have liked the truck to be movie accurate as far as paint and decals (hint -hint -repolables) and the only flaw I can see is that the door locking tabs (truck mode) break off fairly easily when transforming, a nice piece to add to the ROTF set.

You know that is never going to happen with Hasbro.

Re: ice cream twins worth it?

I love the fact that hasbro is releasing a toy of a old Ice cream truck. How can people not buy it?

Re: ice cream twins worth it?

For alt mode alone they are worth it. Who doesn't love an Ice Cream Truck? The bot modes are not bad... definitely on par with ROTF toys in general. It is just a cool concept that we have not seen in a while. Fairly well executed as well.

Re: ice cream twins worth it?

Just got them.The plastic is a little scary when transforming,but I think they are awesome and very glad I bought them.Now that might change when my wife comes home and see the other stuff also.

Re: ice cream twins worth it?

I got mine. But I wanted it from the start just for the alt mode. For me, if I have to think about getting something, chances are I don't. You either want it or don't. Its $15.

All the reviews on youtube are bang on. Transformation is sensitive, plastic is weak, robots look pretty cool, not one I would transform often.....but for $15 its a kick ass alt mode worth displaying in front of the upgrades in robot mode!
