Reviews - Armada Overload w/ Rollout
He is tood small and bulky. I love Rollout, though.
Only a 9 because his robot form is lacking. He's truly a retro headmaster, and the added 'transformation' noise in robot mode just makes him a very cool armada figure. More a giant accessory than an actual figure, though. Very nice combined with OP.
I love this toy! He looks awesome combined with op' and jetfire and is cool on his own. I could play withh him for hours!
great! He may have low posability but he looks extremly cool. The Minicon feature is very headmaster-ish. And the transform sound adds another point.
Overload loses big points with a very brick like Robot form. His great sound byte and novelty of having a headmaster like quality in his mini-con help. His trailer mode and especially his attachment to Optimus are cool, but man his robot mode is no good.
Y'know when I first saw a pic of this I thought it was a joke! A little bitty robot towing this stack of rasberry pastries,...
How does hasbro expect us to accept something like this especially after the super articulated Beast Wars toys. The sound was probably added to add some value to a design that seems like something out of the 80's. Horrible toys, a real shame.
robot mode is more of an unarticulated brick (like G-1), but he's also a combo head/target master. Combined forms look great, makes OP a little topheavy, but placing legs just right will overcome it. LOVE THE CLASSIC TRANSFORMING SOUND VOICE CHIP!
This is a great toy. It is initially junk, but is one of those ones that grows on you as you become more aquainted with how it transforms and operates.
Don't like the vehicle mode that much. Rollout is to big but I guess it has to so it can pull Overload. Robot mode is awsome except the part where Rollout becomes overload's head. Combined with Prime and Jetfire looks really cool.
Not to impressed. Returned him to help get Unicron. mini-con is huge and sound was good, but Overload didn't do anything for me.
Even though he isnt posable, he's worth it. He looks cool, he can combine, and his transformation noise is excellent. (its not cheap sounding, its very clear like orginal) His mini-con is like on steriods or something...
Nearly unposable robot and dull vehicle mode are offset by the insane amount of things you can do with him. He's weaponry, he's a battle station, and he can somewhat combine with the Battepants and Jetfire. $20 well spent if you have the other toys.
Awesome transforming sound! Sorta cool robo mode. Sorta cool combiner mode. meh.
only reason i like this one is because of the transformins sound, and the mini-con homage to the headmasters. otherwise, it looks great as a bookend.
Only worth it if you have prime and jetfire. If not he only rates a 6. Combined modes look neat, but I'm not sure I did them right. Classic transform sound is perfect.
Rollout is a Targetmaster and a Headmaster and Overload, hes a triple changer! the Transforming-noise sound chip in him is the coolest feature. Overload lacks poseability, but his colors are very nice and compatability with the others makes him awesome.
Gotta love that sound!!!
nice in veh. all inspiring as a robot. tfing is a bit to simple and his elbos have no reasong not to bend. RO is HUGE as minicons go- as why does he carry his partners head? i don't much have use for his combiner mode. sound chip is the best yet
Great toy, not as good as Tidalwave but what can you expect. Lost some point for lack of Knee and Elbow joints. But still a great toy overall. Love the TF sound, but wish there was another powerlinx option besides that. (BTW he's called U.M. in japan)
Awesome figure and rumor is the powerlinx overload will be renamed ultra magnus
Incredible sculpt, though maybe a little overkill on the painted details (btw, look out for bad paint apps on this one). I like the "blocky" build, but it needs some elbow joints. Wonder how it would look with a red/white/blue color scheme (U.M.!)...
Being a trans fan I give most of the figures a ten, but not on this one. Overload is manacing which is very cool for the Autobot ranks. The classic transformation sound rocks. I don't care for the size diff of Rollout to Overload in vehicle mode.
A decent figure overall. Found the "head master" feature amusing, and loved the TF sound. Very intimidating when combined with Ops and Jetfire. Not bad, but not the best.
I like this guy, even though he is basically a brick in the shape of a Headmaster. Combining with Optimus can be frustrating at first. He has the G1 transforming sound effect as a bonus... excellent!!!
