Hasbro Transformers Power Of The Primes, Decepticon/Destron Dreadwind. (ft. A to R video)

DREADWIND
(CLICK THE PICTURES TO ENLARGE [ALL MY PICS DIMENSIONS IS 1000x1000px OR 1920x1080px] POSSIBLE FOR WALLPAPER USE)

Click below video for alt mode to robot mode and Combiner mode of Dreadwind.

Alt mode 360 GIF.

Top of the jet fighter.

Instruction menu show how to store the weapon on the alt mode, but it look really weird.

I prefer to store the weapon on the arm. Wings also got peg holes, but doesn't fit the blaster, because the peg handle is too long.

Putting on the Prime master armor on the jet, the armor look like Masterforce adapter, kind of cool.

I don't know why the official Hasbro product pics show Dreadwind in this form, this is suppose to be the Darkwing combined mode.

Skydive figure is actually the closest to Dreadwind, they share more than 50% of the parts.

Top of the fighters.

The jet fighter head, bicep, wings, the back and legs are the shared parts. (the combiner peg is also same)

Compare to old G1 Dreadwind. (my antique collection, don't know what version is this, maybe bootleg??)

Only the head look similar, but the rest is different. (the colors of the old G1 Dreadwind looks very cool)

Robot mode in 360 GIF. (for further details on transformation, check my youtube video for the alt mode to robot mode steps)

Close up on Dreadwind face. Sculpting is not bad, the eye socket is kind of look like skull actually.

The torso is totally new parts, not from combiner series.

Back, same like CW series.

The front of the legs looks exactly the same like Skydive, just different of colors.

The back grey leg piece is almost same with Skydive, but there are minor retool with the new wings.

The space between the back can store a Prime master or Headmaster.

Head can turn 360, forward backward movement is a little weak.

Shoulder joint can go more than 90 degree, same as elbow joint.

360 waist swivel joint.

Well articulation hip joints, 90 degree fold knee joint like usual CW series figures.

Dreadwind's blaster. The handle is a little hard to plug on the peg hole.

The blaster can also store on the forearm.

The hole on the shoulder can use to 5mm peg hole.

Prime armor can use as a shield or weapons.

One of the place to store the Prime armor.

Same as other Prime armor, Prime master can plug on the armor, and the cover can be a small blaster.

This Prime armor look like a parachute bag on Dreadwind, it is silly, but look way more better than Jazz.

Hasbro retool this combiner peg with a new peg hole for the Prime armor. (I think this could be use for Breasrforce if Hasbro want to re-do the Liokaiser combiner, the previous one on CW series is a mess)

Compare to Skydive. The main torso is different, but you can see the front piece of the lower leg, thigh, bicep, the nosecone is same. The forearms look same, but actually side of Dreadwind forearm is a 5mm peg hole, Skydive is a rectangular peg hole.

The fighter head, back piece is same, the lower legs is almost, but the molded extra piece for holding the new wing piece, and the wings move to the lower legs.

Almost three decades apart from the G1, it is smaller and a lot more articulated, and it look a lots more handsome too. (damn't, three decades, I am so old...)

Compare PC PE-16, Jinrai. Compare to new Dreadwind, Jinrai suppose to be shorter half inch, but it is still cool playing together.

In combiner leg mode. Look not much different to the Aerialbots.

A lot more colors than Aerialbots on the back, it look not that good on King Starscream. (Forgot to turn away the head.)

Combiner arm mode. I hope there is a new combiner for Dreadwind in combiner mode.

"Stop destroying the city, Buster!" (Buster: Japan version of Dreadwind)
"What can you do? Stop me!?"
Apparently Buster is destroying the city, Metalhawk try to stop this Godmaster.

"Heeyaa! Feel my fist!!"

"Muahahahaha! Stop me! Metalhawk!" he overpowered Metalhawk, Hawk can't even fight back by his continuous attack.

"Halt! you evildoer!" Ginrai comes to the rescue.

"Ginrai! Come, lets fight!!" Buster taunted.

"Heiyaah--!!" Buster flying kick the Super Commander.

Buster block Ginrai's front kick.

In return, Buster uppercut Ginrai.

Ginrai strike back with elbow attack.

Ginrai given axe kick to Buster... (not a** kicking)

...and sidekick him that threw Buster a distance.

"Urrhh... Ginrai..." he felt frustration of having Ginrai combo attack.


“There will be next time, Ginrai!!" Buster retreat as he can't even hurt  Ginrai a bit.


"What a coward..." Ginrai feel annoyed by the act of his foe.

"They always be, my friend, we will be prepare next time." Metalhawk.
