ROTF Chromia - Deluxe Class

Well, the ironic is...I say a movie Bonecrusher (the first movie) prices at RM 85 in eBay, but I decided to stop buying for a while. Who knows, the next day after I made the decision, I bought another two new models.


It is a blue color bike, should consider rather super. The name is Chromia and it is one of the three bike Autobots present in the new film.



Problem with motorcycle toy is always it's inability to stand on its own. Not a problem with this. Other than the built in stand like real bike do, it also has a more stable detachable stand for it to stand up straight.



And the detachable stand also doubles as a missile launcher we can snap it at the back of the bike. Problem is, if there is a rider....the missile or gun will shoot the rider first when it is fired. But what the heck, Transformers vehicle does not need a rider, maybe it will have a holographic one.


The bike is full of the cryptic symbols and of course the mark of Autobots...wonder what Robert Langdon will say about it. It is a sleek bike, from this angle it makes you really want to jump and have a ride on it, since it is also a...

Lady robot~!!! The writers has finally overcome the issue of how to explain the gender issue for the robots. Guess they just ignore it. The bio in the pack says it she is a closely attach to Ironhide, so, if they do whatever the humans do, I wonder how they do it.

Close up...does she looks like a she? Other than a remarkable waistline, and a more diamond shape head, thin limbs and overall a slim figure, there is no other sign.


But the head light place at the position is a bit err....how you say it? Weird? Indecent?

Well, after the transformation, one wheel will be at the top, behind the head, and the other will be her "legs". Thus she stand on one wheel, just like Demolishor aka Wheelbot as the film crew call it. But unlike the Demolishor figure, Chromia's wheel is very solid and thus, the very detachable stand can be used to get her stand up right and stable.

Overall, it is quite a figure and somehow I do well come the Autobots to have some more alien looking robot. Don't let the Decepticon to get all the fun!
