Toy Review - Ectotron

[GoktimusPrime]

Makes sense, and after opening the toy last night, not having a combiner torso to compare against on hand, I'd suggest that the torso is a heavy remould, as is the 'design frame' of the feet.

It's not. The torso and feet are all new. Everything is new on this mould except for the upper arms and upper legs.

1. The blue hose can be kinda frustrating when attempting to transform Ecto back to car mode but it's an a fun kind of frustration although I recommend keeping this TF out of reach of children because those rubber parts will get worn out in no time.

2. I'm not a fan of retools and less so of repaints (unless there's a good reason) but thankfully the retooling is so minor.

3. TFs with vintage or (in this case) retro alt. modes need to be cherished due to how uncommon they are and Ectotron is retro and then some (it's the Ecto-1 for god's sake).

4. When it comes to storing Slimer, the instructions don't say how but I've found you can sit him on the proton gun or place the gun up his........ I'll let you work that one out for yourself.

Conclusion: An awesome TF and worth the price tag.
