The Many Modes of Universe Silverbolt

[Paulbot]

Universe Silverbolt wasn't the most popular ultra, but as Golden Phoenix, Iceburn, Wheel-J and I discovered today, he's secretly very versatile.

And lastly plane mode.

So how about this toy repainted as Sixshot or Quickswitch? :D

[Golden Phoenix]

Eat your heart out Sixshot!

[Tabias Prime]

wow you got 11 different modes one of one mold, I'm officially impressed:eek::eek::eek::eek:...I now wish i bought one when Target was selling it for $30...

[Stompy]

Man oh man that's some pretty good mis-transformations from a pretty simple mould. Way to go. Wish I was there for the fun.

[iceburn]

hahahahaa just the most fantastic lunch meet today

[jaydisc]

Well done gents.

[dirge]

I'm really impressed by the lynx mode.

[1AZRAEL1]

Hahah that is classic. I like the figure anyway but giving him 11 modes for a figure that has less articulation than a toilet is just genius.

I literally lol'd at the street lamp mode! :D :D

The microscope mode looks cool. :) This toy actually works better as a multi-changer than (Devil) Gigatron (RiD Mega/Galvatron)! (^_^)

[Golden Phoenix]

I'm surprised we got so much out of it. We were really scraping the barrel with claw mode.
All he needs is an extra joint on the plane nose and we could have had scorpion mode >_>

[Decepticon]

Wow! So many uses for such a boring figure. May have to drag him out of the cold dark corner of the display cabinet and give him an extra 5 minutes of fame.:)

[GoktimusPrime]

I think he's an underrated figure -- he's simple but elegant. Even if he is a backpackformer.
