What the hells up with the bike? And Perceptor looks stupid.

A gestalt that fits in your pocket! I love these guys, but they do win the award for "Strangest Vehicle Modes Ever." Be sure to add them to your collection.

grin best overall. great ideas for vehicle modes, but the robot modes lack because of it. cute gestalt. i'm sure he could beat up any those spychangers!

Very different set than air defense, but just as cool! These are the coolest vehicles ever! Skateboard, bike, and scooter! Perceptor is awesome, but he would be better if he had powerlinx to add more minicons. He should be able to hold starsaber, but no.

Fun set, creating Perceptor is fun, and having Minicons lying around is helpful, but charging $7 for 3 uber small dudes just isn't that cool--still its worht getting for the perceptor mode ^^

If these Mini Cons didn't combine, they would have a lower score. I like arms that move forward! Grindor is still cool, that's my biggest gripe. Perceptor isn't that great but he looks good, towering over other Mini Cons. Hard to fit on bigger guys.

decent. these three shine in perceptor mode. great detail. poor articulation keeps this from greatness.

Pretty cool. Perceptor is really cool. Grindor is neat. Sureshock is pretty cool. High Wire is fairly good. recommended for kids and collectors.

These are some spiffy Transformers. From a design standpoint not even High-wire is worse off than the majority of the vehicon generals, and these are more fun. Seven dollars well spent.

Wow! now we finaly know what a skateboard, mo-ped, and bicycle would look like combined. I hate it! And If it weren't so laughable I would'nt love it as I would any bad B sci-fi movie! I would take Perseptor to my leader any day. Just don't hurt me!

I give them a 9 because of perceptor. Grindor has an ok robot mode and his alternate mode is interesting. Sureshock has a pretty good vehicle mode but his robot mode is odd. Highwire isnt good in either mode.

Second of the Minicon sets only to the Land Military team. Sure, they're a little bricky, but that's to be expected from any gestalt. That, and they're the smallest gestalt ever. What's not to love?

Grindor is the best of the three. Sureshock is okay, he reminds me of Wheelie. But High Wire is unacceptable in robot mode, kind of okay in bycycle mode. Only reason to keep him around is to form Preceptor. Preceptor is kind of cool for a combinder.

First off, Shureshock is actually pretty cool, but ONLY for comedy value. He's a trip to look at in bot mode. High Wire is adequate for a bike, and Grindor is remarkably cool. And Perceptor is a fun little gestalt. A decent buy.

Grinder is great in robot mode. Not a big fan of any of their non-robot modes but think about how cool it would be if your bike/mo-ped/jet-skateboard were TFs? As for the other two, their lack of any acceptible robot modes is made up for by Perceptor.

only worth it for grindor and perceptor. buyer beware.

My favorite set, and interesting enough, my favorite gestalt! Each have their special points. Grindor is the best out of the. And Highwire is very nice. Sureshock kinda lacks...everything. Perceptor is fun, portable, easy to play with!

The weakest of the first release minicons, Sureshock comes off as the winner in this set looking decent in both modes. Grindor would have won, except for his lack of ANY posibility. The Perceptor mode is ok. (I'm not even going to mention highwire.)

Perceptor
PERCEPTOR is highly detailed & well proportioned combiner. Grindor is the coolest of the 3 components; very solid in each mode. Ss has great vehicle mode & rather awkward bot. Hw is a distant 3rd as a decent lookin' bike, totally bizarre lookin' bot!
