Reviews - Energon Snow Cat
Nicely built
Very nice tribute to GIJoe. A lot of 80's ref's in this line. The 'gut' doesn't disturb me, reminds me of haul in g1. Clear window is good for me. Head could use some better paint job or clear visor. What happened to his weapon or gun? -6.5
cool vehicle, cool robot, flimsey transformation, alright weapon, not the best transformer but still pretty good
Its vehicle mode is a cool homage to the GIJoe toy. However, its robot mode is very ugly. Compare to its tubbiness, Optimus Prime will look less on the fat side. Good playability though with interesting hypermode.
I like the Gi-Joe in-joke and all, but this guy is ruined by his huge "energon gut", clumsy-looking bot mode, and big gaps in his halftrack mode. I also have to question the usefulness of an arctic vehicle altmode...
Is he supposed to be what cyclonus was? If so ,talk about going from bad to worse.
This is how g1 ironhide should have been with a different color scheme and some adjustments, good solid autobot worrior type, the big guns make it a decepticon with color
I like the toy, but not the name! I also heard that in the Energon Show he is going to be reformatted by Cyclonus...
I love this toy but it has major flaws. It doesn't have any outstanding details and it doesn't have a very good connection between the lower vehicle mode and the upper vehicle mode and when in hyper vehicle mode you can see staight through it.
did someone say yojoe snowcat when are we geting the cossover toys g-i-joe and transformers.
They call THAT a hyper mode?? Shoulder cannons and SKIS?? *grumbles* Oh well. His color scheme seems more autobot, and he just seems kinda flimsy in both modes. The iced window is a nice touch, but can't comapre to Starscream. Still better than Scorponok.
Interesting homage to fellow 80s icon GI Joe, if a bit uninspiring in its execution. Wish there was a spark crystal on my Snow Cat. Robot mode cool, but "hyper" mode leaves something to be desired.
I held off on buying him at first because he looked too boring. Turns out he's one of my favorite deluxes. Unique vehicle mode and fun robot mode. Hyper mode for both forms are very cool. I just wish they could have given him a hand-held weapon.
This is one cool transformer, and a good homage to a G.I. Joe vehicile and his head looks like G2's dreadwing.
i really liked him a lot, his hyper power in vehicle is awesome. i really dig the skis in hyper power robot. his only problem is the back shies. it is hard to get them in the right place. overall very good.
Cool vehicle mode, very different from other TF's in the Energon line. Robot mode is cool, but the big stomach bulge is a little ugly. Hyper mode is cool. I personally think the head is cool.
Love this guy since i first saw the package. He transforms nicely and the robot mode with the missles up looks awesome. Just be careful of the skis, sometimes they fall off.
VERY AWESOME,THE ONLY PROBLEM IS HIS SKIS COME OFF TOO EASILY.I JUST PULLED MINE OFF.DOESN'T LOOK TO BAD ACTUALLY.
I like this one. Great GI Joe look. But Hasbro said that this is Cyclonus from Armada in a reformat. They went really extreme from helo to land rover. They could have made Cyclonus look like G1 Cy like they did with Megatron.
Not the best Decepticon, but big and bulky, which is good for G1 fans. Nice to have additional troops. Pick one up, since we have to wait for Shockwave, er, Shockblast and Mirage.
Just a robot version of fat albert(a.k.a.)huba huba huba!
Yo Joe! Lots of nice touches, such as the frosted windshield, wipers, and the whole biathalon angle. It's a fun toy and a great fan nod, but he feels overly chunky. Get him anyway.
Snow cat is cool and very unique. Interesting tribute to GI Joe. I think the head sculpt is rather appropriate given the climate he's supposed to be in. I think his colors are actually consistent with what a Decepticon snow vehicle would be.
Colors are nice and I'm particularly fond of the head sculpt, but TF'ation is weak and he's not too very solid in either mode, big missles launchers ARE cool, wish the windshield wiper on him was molded to the windshield, feels like i'm gonna break it off
I wasn't sure if I wanted to buy him, but I think he turned out well. Not thrilled with the skis, but he is still worth having.
