Transformers Universe Deluxe Class Classic Series Action Figure – Decepticon Tankor with Triple Changer
- Transformers Universe Classic Series: TANKOR
Product Description
Other DECEPTICONS® would call TANKOR a dirtbag, if it wasn’t for the high-octane fuel he supplies to them. He’s a sleazy liar who will steal or manipulate anyone, so long as it helps him get his way. As such, he fits right into the most dangerous battlegrounds across the universe, where survival depends on maintaining an advantage. The only reason other DECEPTICONS will have anything to do with him is that he always seems to have a supply of fuel when everyone else… More >>

It has long been gone that how I wished to have this figure since it first came out. Visited several stores, taking a chance of getting one, but did not… until I ordered on-line. It was not a single regret and made me happy to finally have this figure on hand since it was way better than the G1 figure. I had the G1 figure still in the box and a loose figure as well to compare. All I would say is he had a better transformation compared from before. I loved this figure… I highly recommend you to get one. I bought an extra to keep in the original blister case to go side by side with my G1 figure. Great figure… Hands down once again to the figure designer!

Here we have Octane as Generation one fans know him. He was a triple changer in the 80′s and it is very nice to see a well engineered triple changer from modern toy manufacturing processes. All three modes are nice but the truck mode needs work. The meele blade is interesting but not so great. Overall a B+ for this figure. Good toy with room for improvement.

In the 80′s this toy was known as Octane,which is what I will call it in this review.Octane was a Triple Changer back in the 80′s with a plane mode,a tanker mode,and a robot mode.Here Octane is reimagined with modern toy mechanics and posability.He still retains the three modes and he looks very much like his G1 self in all three.Usually with a Triple Changer,one mode is always weak,and here that standard is shown with the Tanker truck mode.He has a great plane mode though,as well as an awesome robot mode.For armament he has two guns,but I took one and gave it to Sideswipe.He also has a bizzare comb-like “Melee Blade” which is not used much by me.Overall,I’m glad the triple changer concept is being re-imagined,and here is one of the best examples.
