I was a little disappointed at these Human Alliance basics. I know people hate the Cyberverse commanders for the size : prize ratio but these aren't engineered as well as the Cyberverse Commanders, in my opinion. Transformation is simple and the limbs unruly.

With Icepick, the bio is actually referring to the Power Core Combiners Icepick. Judging from the engineering of these HA Basics this has the PCC teams trademarks all over it. Boxy limbs, angular sculpts, odd proportions and crazy designs. Instead of Targetmasters we have humans.

Icepick actually looks like a female bot to me, despite the bio referring to it as a he. The long hair, curvy proportions, the heeled pointy feet and hand sculpts I've only seen on female bots of past. I must say robot mode is quite nice, especially with the Voldo (Soul Calibur) like mask and the crazy ass backpack. Alt mode is quite nice and definately resembles a Snowmobile. The weapon mode (compatible with all mechtech figures) is a little bit forced but I admire Hasbro for trying.

Not a bad figure but my money is still on Cyberverse Commanders. Human Alliance to me means complex and detailed figures. This is still good fun though and to be honest, prefer these Human Figures over the Targetmasters in the PCC line.
