Tremendous Play Value OK, so Transformers are sometimes a little difficult to manipulate and a piece pops off that only dad can manage to get back on. BUT, when I compare that to the countless hours my son spends playing with them indoors and out, setting up battles with all the characters, joining them in with his Hot Wheels, Lego Blocks and Lionel Trains, providing dialogue as he directs the action, they offer tremendous play value. Since he got them at Christmas, his video game consoles including the Wii, have taken a big back seat to the kind of play I think is far more valuable. As for the exact likeness, my kid loves the cartoon and has no problem with the toys not being EXACTLY like those on the show.
Creative and Different - worth the TEN bucks First of all, $22?? I just grabbed this at Wal Mart for $10. 10 should be the price of most transformers that are in production, 20 for some larger ones (Rachet, etc.) and 40 for the humongous Optimus, not all this 20, 40, 70 stuff. Moving on...
I just picked up bonecrusher today with hesitation, since he looks kinda strange from the pictures I've seen. However I opened him up and was compelled by the original transformation. It's not that easy the first time, since there are a couple flaps to click open first. Once he's done he's one of the few transformers I've ever had to really feel like a truck, then feel like a robot, rather than feeling like a robot made out of a car. A lot of his robot parts are hidden within the truck mode, but by looking at the robot it's really hard to tell that it was once a truck. That feeling on top of an interesting and original transformation process, Bonecrusher makes a great toy.
I have not had it long enough to experience any durability issues.
Nice but doesn't have an appropiate size! In comparison with other Transformers toys, this one is very small. In the movie, fight between Optimus Prime and Bonecrusher looks espectacular, we see a large decepticon almost the same size like Optimus. But, in the toy version, it's very small...looks like a Bonecrusher Junior...
Great, smaller Transformer My almost-5-year-old just bought Bonecrusher with some of his Christmas money and on the first day he got it, the shovel/blade attachment popped off. After about 10-15 times of mom popping it back on only to come right back off, I told him he was just going to have to think of them as two separate toys because he was getting pretty sad about a broken toy! A few days later, he announced to me that that piece was actually Bonecrusher's "minicon"! What a great imagination and ability to roll with the indignities of poor construction. This is his and my favorite Transformer we've seen/bought yet. It is small and yet has a pretty complicated Transformation process--he sat down and successfully Transformed it right away and hasn't had any difficulties, but is very engaged in the process. He is a VERY mechanical little guy so this works great for him, but I doubt I would be able to Transform it at all! Except for the one piece that won't stay on, there haven't been any other pieces come loose or pop off after nearly two weeks of very steady use. Overall, I think this is a good little Transformer to have for his age range.
Transformers Movie Deluxe Bonecrusher I purchased this item for my grandson as a Christmas present and he loved it.
