You shall have a Menasor worthy of destruction!!

So, with Hasbro’s combiner wars now in full swing, we are getting some pretty awesome figures. It makes us happy here at Kapow to be getting great figures, with out upsetting the bank balance. However, there is no denying, that Menasor was, well… not the best of the bunch.

The addition of the soon to be released break-neck will help.

But never fear, the good guys over at Perfect Effect are bringing out some lovely upgrades, that we think will make for an awesome Menasor!! Take a loot at the pics and tell us what you think?

Is biggest always best? Perhaps not!

OK, so I admit it! i am a sucker for a big robot, and the addition of the new star saber to my collection is testament to that fact.

But in another part of my toy cave (its nothing like a cave, in fact its very well lit, with lots of glass,wood and, well toys…no rock anywhere.. ) there are some very small, but equally awesome transformers. I am of course, talking about the little guys from Iron Factory

I new I wanted these guys from the first time I saw the promo pics.  The first set, was Manacle and turrets (sixshot and scamper) and they are scaled to go Hasbro’s Metropelx, and they do this perfectly.

They have been designed well, with some nice transformation, and tons of guns!!!!

The next set was even better (being the massive Blaster fan that I am)

All of these little guys are packed with articulation, and loads of accessories. The sculpts are awesome, not just for their size, just in general!

Then we come to next 2 figure due to be released from Iron Factory

Droooooolll………. I can’t wait to get my hands on these!!

So it would seem that size, is in fact not everything.
