Box Art:

Blackjack's review: Booster x10

Name: Booster x10
Alligeance: Decepticon
Function: a homage to G1 Laserbeak
Sub-Group: Real Gear Robots

Alternate Mode: MP3 Player
Frankly, the alternate mode is not good. You can clearly see Booster's head, but at least the color is good. (BLOOD RED) The new Real Gears alternate modes do not look like they have any functions in the Autobot/Decepticon war... At least Soundwave's tape deck mode functions as a troop carrier.

Booster is clearly a homage to G1 Laserbeak, with his robot mode being a bird, his colours red and black, and his alternate mode a MP3 player. (the updated version of his original casette mode), so why don't they call him "Laserbeak" or "Lazorbeak" or something? Booster x10... Ew. Ugly name.

Robot Mode:
At least the robot mode is cool and good looking enough. The head pops off easily, mind you. After transforming, there is an additional circular cannon piece that is placed on his back. The red colouring is nice enough, and his claws and wings are better articulated than, let's say... the legends Bumblebee.

Transformation: 5/10. Nice enough.
Durability: 6/10. The bloody head drops off easily. DON'T drop it, the wings can fall off.
Fun: 8/10. Why we all like bird Decepticons I don't know, but this one is cool, like his G1 predecessor.
Price: 5/10. Not too cheap, not too expensive.
Overall: 7/10. A nice toy, has a good robot mode, a nice homage to Laserbeak and a low-point price troop builder for the Decepticons.
