Combiner Wars deluxe Air Raid is a classic member of the Aerialbots, a youthful bot that smashes his way into battle. Air Raid transforms into an F-14 Tomcat fighter plane just like his G1 version, and it’s interesting to have another 1980s vehicle in the mix rather than an updated, modern designed jet; of course he also transforms into a combiner leg or arm. Aside from Quickslinger who is getting an online-exclusive release, Air Raid is the last Aerialbot to be released. Read on for the full review and photos.

Combiner Wars deluxe Breakdown is a classic member of the Stunticons, the paranoid bot that’s traditionally the right leg of Menasor. Breakdown is part of the second wave of Combiner Wars, and comes with a comic book. With Wildrider having been renamed “Brake-Neck”, Breakdown’s name is no longer as unique as it used to be, but he’s still having an emotional breakdown thinking everyone is out to get him. Breakdown transforms into a mid-engine supercar highly reminiscent of a Lamborghini Countach, as well as a combiner leg or arm.  Read on for the full review and photos.

Combiner Wars legends-class Blackjack is minor player from the G1 line that has recently been drafted in the IDW Combiner Wars comic book by Starscream to join the Stunticons in an attempt to help control Menasor’s mind. Blackjack transforms into a sports coupe reminiscent of an Acura NSX, and can be used as a chest plate for Menasor. Blackjack comes with an ax weapon.  Read on for the full review and photos.

Combiner Wars legends-class Powerglide is a classic G1 character that’s only recently been inducted into the ranks of the Aerialbots, transforming from A-10 Thunderbolt II (aka the Warthog) jet to robot and now to Superion’s rifle, essentially making him a triple-changer and a Targetmaster. This is the second Generations-line new mold for Powerglide, the previous coming in 2008 in the Universe line as a much larger ultra-class figure. Read on for the full review and photos.
