Transformers Cybertron Voyager Vector Prime with Safeguard

To simply think of Transformers toys as robots that turn into vehicles is really a disservice to yourself because it totally neglects the rich and complex back story endemic to the franchise.

 Vector Prime, a kindly Autobot from nine billion years in the past, is brought into the present to help defeat the Decepticons and save the planet Cybertron from a black hole (note: toy will not save you from black holes).

 In our informal tabletop test, he moved easily from robot form to spaceship form and features a variety of electronic sounds (activated by using a special key), a spring loaded missile, and a mini-con sidekick named Safeguard. Read: Transformers Movie Voyager Megatron 

For a time traveling, planet saving robot, one might wish Vector Prime was a little better at standing up but overall he makes for a striking and entertaining toy.-Charlie Williams

 Realizing his mistake, he joins OPTIMUS PRIME and pledges his knowledge and skill to the desperate quest to retrieve the planet keys before MEGATRON.UNLOCK THE POWER! The race to save CYBERTRON is all around you.
