It’s really unfortunate because it looks SO great with the armor attached but I actually prefer it off to remain playable. The problems come in when the “Divine Armor” is added on to where it loses a lot of that articulation, particularly in the legs. Just like Thunder Erebus released beforehand, there isn’t much that this piece just can’t do, and it’s so FUN to play with. once you get him armored up, it’s a sight to see with adding about a half inch of height as well as some nice “bling” to Thunder Manus.Īrticulation: The articulation on Thunder Manus itself is insane. Thunder Manus comes with two blasters as well as the two vintage shoulder canons that Powermaster Prime has always had, and that’s it (the guns are big and awesome, so it’s not a slight in the least.) This biggest thing that it comes with and I don’t really consider it an accessory is the “Divine Armor” which is basically an homage to the Transformers Masterforce “GodBomber” robot which turns from a robot into a trailer and can be disassembled as armor for Powermaster Optimus/Ginrai but this has no robot mode only a trailer and armor options (A separate, full-on Godbomber in the Cross-Dimensions line will be released at a later date.) Of course the Divine Armor becomes really swank-looking armor for Thunder Manus but it also comes with a huge shoulder canon with a really cool sword that detatches from it. This kind of stuff isn’t acceptable.Īccessories: There really isn’t much to this piece in terms of accessories. On mine, there are pieces connected to his side skirts that don’t well at all and continuously fall off and reports from other owners vary anywhere from that same issue to even scuff marks throughout the item. The figure itself is well packaged in the plastic clamshell and it’s nice that it’s packaged as the robot mode of the “base” power master mode as I feel that it’s the mode that people will be looking to go to first.īuild: Thunder Manus is made of good plastics with really strong, friction-based joints. The pictures on both the front and back along with the graphics and text layout are extremely well done and the wide, rectangular shape really gives it a panoramic feel. Presentation: The box for Thunder Manus is frankly awesome.
MAKETOYS THUNDER EREBUS THIRD PARTY SERIES
This iteration of the “Powermaster” version of Optimus Prime (“Ginrai” in the Masterforce series) brings that large, intimidating aesthetic of the character along with the extreme articulation that the cross-dimension series has become known for. MakeToys is showing commitment to keeping the cross-dimension line going with their latest release, Thunder Manus. The MakeToys Cross Dimension line literally brought out the big guns with Thunder Manus!
