I tried Paladins powerlinx thing with the star saber.It works very well. A great mini-con team.

Individual robots are great pieces of Transformers engineering. Jet modes are great too, especially Sonar. Star Sabre, however, proves that if you can't do something right, don't do it at all. The "sword" don't look like one.

I love these little guys. FIrst armada toys I ever bought! Star Saber gimmick is great! By the way, if you attach Jetstorm's legs to the Powerlinx points on Sonar, it holds together a lot better.

Beat the pants off the Micromasters, but of limited interest unless you have the large Armada toys. Definitely teh best of the weaponm-merge Mini-Con sets.

Good vehicle modes and robot modes. Star Saber is also pretty cool. Remember to hook Jetstorm's legs to Sonar's Powerlinx ports for a secure connection. Jetstorm's the best of the bunch.

A great team, all 3 look well in both modes. Shame Star Saber doesn't stay together well. Still a great team

Joe Kearon
Great little team, but a little bland on their own, and Star Saber could do better. Solid.

I like these guys. Pretty articulate to be so small and inexpensive. Vehicle\Bot modes - Good. Liked the star saber mode better than I thought I would. Not sure why articulation is in the minicons and not the expensive toys like Prime and Megatron?

The Phazer
Lots of fun. Nice alt modes, and nice robot modes. Shame about the transparent plastic though. Star Saber is rubbish. Doesn't hold together or look vaugely like a sword. Still, pretty fun alone.

I luv this team of minicons I luv combiner TFs. The only flaw is when you add the middle one to sonar It always falls off most of the time anyway other than that its a cool toy!

Sonar Runway And Jetstorm are great mini cons. The only bad thing about it is that when you combine them to make Starsaber they sometimes disconect from each other. Besides that it is a great toy.

Cool in both plane and robot modes. Starsaber is a cool concept, but hard for anyone to hold and have it look cool.

Runway is okay, Sonar is fun (put him in a "sumo" postion...funny stuff!), and Jetstorm is good. Worth getting, but NOT at KB's inflated price range. No sir. Trust yonder Wal-Mart to buy these transformin' midgets. Ye-HA!

This would have to be the best mini-con team yet. They are a team of jets who transform into a huge sword. It got a nine cus I always have troble transforming Jetstorm amd Runaway's robo parts are kinda obvois in jet mode.

Han Man the Trans Fan
Probably the best mini-con team. Like I said before they are my favorite but in toys, they are ok. Sonar is my fav in this team. Sword mode is awesome but the blade falls off the handle often. It is still worth buying.

Squirrel Warrior
So far my favorite mini-con team.Vehicle modes are good and robot modes are really cool. Fun to play with. Highly Reccomended

I am still impressed with the work done with this 3 guys. For their size, their transformation & all aspects are great.There's only one complain... surealistc sword, need a bit of imagination or smoke that front yard green thing to see it as one

A solid pack of figures and my favorite minicon set. Jetstorm is the best but the other two are fine as well

starsaber is way to bulky and falls apart too much. jetstorm and sonar are equally great. both fun tf-ing, and looks cool. runway is a letdown. too much clear plastic- and no upperarms. i won't mind so if his thruster/chest went down the rest of the way.

Runway and Jetstorm switch names between package and instructions (JIBRIR!) They're both disturbingly Micromasterish (similar to Whisper,Stormcloud) but at least they look cool. Sonar: actually a space shuttle, he's like a small BMJetstorm (hover mode!)

High Road
I like Jetstorm best of the three, Sonar's TF is a little too troublesome. And Runway,ick,all that clear plastic. They shouldv'e made his jet nose fold up like on Jetstorm. Star Saber is stable, you should save him for the bigger guys like Starscream.

Nice set, decent modes for each minicon, sword mode is awesome. Can go with most TFs. Individually are used as boosters to larger bots. One complaint is how the Star Sabre falls apart easily. Will have to issue these to OP

I've been waiting for this set since I heard about Armada. It's the only Armada set I own and it is great! Any RID toy that can hold Scourge's Sword can hold Star Saber.

A very cool set indeed! Their Jet modes are all just too cool. Runway is my fav. Sonar is pretty sweet also. Jetstorm is ok. They are not that posable, but are posable enough to be a great set of Minicons. Just plain awsome.
