Product Description

Though he is usually occupied acting as a servant to larger, more powerful DECEPTICONS, DIRT BOSS has big plans. He constantly schemes to acquire more power, laying plans to betray or discredit his competitors and superiors in the hope of taking their positions. In combat, his body is as surprisingly agile as his mind. It's not uncommon to see him leaping through the air towards the enemy, with all his weapons blazing.

This is one of my favorite of the recent scout class transformers. I love Transformers that turn into off beat vehicles beyond the ubiquitous sports car bots. The coloring seems to be a tribute to the original G1 Contructicons and the mold is nicely detailed for it's size down to the diamond plate skid plates and suicide knob steering wheel.

His transformation is a rather clever mix of unwrapping/turning him inside out, without giving the figure too much of a kibble backpack. The robot mode is suprisingly detailed, not boxy and does not have that 'shell-former' limbs-melted-into-vehicle-mode-panels that most of the scouts seem to suffer from.

My figure seems a bit loose and floppy in the joints but since he won't see much heavy rough play I'm not bothered. I'm not sure if this is consistent throughout the production run or I just got one of a bad batch. Interestingly enough the mold was reused to make a Walmart exclusive orange repaint named Deadlift, if that tickles your fancy more. I'd say Dirt Boss is a great little figure for both kids and older collectors. He's make a perfect addition to a collection if you've already got a few other Movie-verse Constructicons to keep him company.


And remember parents: If you don't like challenging your children, BUY AGE APPROPRIATE.

When I first received it, I love how complicated its transformation is and its fun.I wished it would have one eye, like in the transformer video game.
