Product Description

Editorial Review

When kids get a little too old and a little too bored by Bob the Builder, they might be ready to move on to this very entertaining set from Transformers. In robot form, Landmine looks much like any other gigantic robot warrior, though perhaps a bit more fond of the color "construction yellow" than most of his mechanical compadres. But after the inevitable transformation occurs, he becomes a heavy-duty construction vehicle featuring a crane and a winch with hand crank. Unlike most construction rigs, however, Landmine also features a rear section that converts to a gunnery station and fires a spring-loaded missile. The big tractor treads on Landmine are immobile but the wheels turn, getting the rig where it needs to go, although not at any blazing speed. We were impressed with the "rescue" pretend-play possibilities presented by the crane and winch and the ease of transformation from robot to truck. --Charlie Williams

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the TOP FIVE TRANSFORMERS, EVER!, February 22, 2004

Landmine is a truly excellent Transformer. In vehicle mode, he looks very cool as some sort of earth moving construction vehicle. He has a working crane device. He also has a detachable gunnery station in back.
The robot mode is also very well done. Well sculpted, and super poseable. The gunnery station can be turned into armor to form Brute Mode! The electronic sounds are less annoying than most, as well.
Hats off to Hasbro for making one of the best Transformers in 20 years!

Energon Landmine is one of the best transformers in the energon toy line. Not as cool as Energon Megatron (which is the best one so far) But I would say the second or third. His vehicle is a little strange buts its cool. The robot mode is awsome. He can go into cool poses and his powerlinks is cool. I would give Energon landmine a 9.8 out of ten. I hope this review will help everyone.

I recently purchased my Landmine figure. I've LOVED him since I bought him! The vehicle mode, while having several spaces/openings in it, is pretty solid. It definitely reminds me of several vehicles from the "Road Warrior" movie. Now onto the best part, the transformation. Landmine's transformation into the basic figure is rather easy. His joints are a bit stiffer than most people would probably like, but the ratchet joints help massively with poseability. Landmine is loads of fun just in the basic mode with his "base" trailer. As for his Powerlinx combo, it simply transformers the base trailer into two arm extensions and a backpack. I found the Powerlinx combo to be a bit awkward, but I've grown used to it. I've especially liked the fact that Landmine is a stand alone figure unlike say... Hot Shot and Inferno or any of the other Powerlinx combos. Overall, this is one of my favorite figures from the Energon line. I highly recommend him.
