AUTOBOT SPRINGER
Click below link to A To R video of Springer.
Springer vehicle mode in 360 GIF.
The dorsal view the alt mode.
The bottom of the vehicle. The obvious robot parts visible is the robot head, the hand, and the thigh, this is reasonable. No display stand peg hole under the alt mode, but the 5mm port in the middle of the alt mode is really for what purpose?
I like how the transparent fake cockpit looks, it looks like it can be open, but it is not, it is actually the space of the hinge for connecting the robot mode backpack.
This is how the box art shows how to combine all the weapons in alt mode, it is a turret, but the instruction menu does not do like that.
I prefer to store all the weapons, this way, more promising.
And this is the other way to store the guns on the alt mode.
This is the way that makes the back of the vehicle look wider since some of the fans hated this rear end.
The effects parts are suitable to use on this alt mode because it looks like afterburner effects.
To compare with SIEGE Optimus Prime and Arcee from Generations.
Compare with Generations Springer. They look totally different.
I am actually more prefer the alt mode of Generations Springer than the WFCS Springer.
Generations Springer is longer than the WFCS Springer.
Springer Helicopter mode in 360 GIF.
Dorsal view of the heli mode.
Bottom of the heli mode.
The back. The exact copy of the G1 cartoon Springer, this is how the heli mode supposes to look.
The way the instruction menu store the weapon in this mode.
But suppose the 5 mm peg pose is another way to store the weapon? But this alt mode does not have any landing gear, so, the weapon under the alt mode is not a way to store the weapon.
The blade rotor spins really well, it is smooth.
Blast effect parts can also be put on the back of the heli for thruster effects.
Compare to WFCS Optimus Prime and Generations Arcee.
This mode is a lot longer than Prime and Arcee in alt mode, two inches longer than Prime, and four inches longer than Arcee.
Springers comparisons in heli mode.
Maybe the Generations one look more handsome in this mode, but SIEGE Springer look as awesome(in G1 style) as well.
But SIEGE Springer is shorter than Generations Springer around a half-inch.
360 GIF Springer in robot mode.
Head height is near 6.4 inches.
This is the definite version of G1 cartoon Springer's head sculpt. I think the eyes are separated parts, too bad this eyes does not have any light piping. The back of the head is smooth, no sculpted details.
The torso is looking more like G1 toy than the cartoon version. The 'battle damage' is printed, you can see the pixelated prints.
The arm is quite boxy, need to fold the inner shoulder joint backward a little bit to make it look more dynamic. The yellow color shoulder armor looks like the paint is scrubbing off during long periods, but it is actually painted silver on top of the yellow color.
Peg holes are for the rotor blades and storing weapons. (this weathered effect makes me think of those Star Wars toys)
Complicated details on lower legs, but looks not that bad. Some damage effects applied on the front panel of the section.
The lower legs are hollowed, no sculpted details, but it looks fine for me.
You can leave the tail fins out for a different look, like the old G1 toys, the old toys got fins on the side of its lower legs.
The G1 toys fans mode. (but the bicep joints is stuck with the shoulder armor folds down)
The head can move forward-backward, but the backward movement is nearly zero, forward movement goes around 10 degree angle. Head can turn 360.
The shoulder can swing outward around 80 degree angle, bicep swivel 360, elbow joint folds more than 110 degrees, wrist joint swivel 360 degree angle.
Shoulder joint swing forward 140 degree angle, but swing backward only 90 degree angle. Waist joint only swivels 45 degree angle.
Hips joint swing forward and outward 90 degree, knee joint folds more than 120 degree, feet swing forward only around 10 degree, folds backward around 20 degree angle, but the ankle tilt almost fold against the side of the lower leg.
There are two guns for Springer, this is the main gun that looks like the G1 version, the C-10 Void Blast Capacitor.
The second one is the front section of the combined gun, J-10 Warp Blaster.
This is how the combined gun looks like.
The spinner parts for the blade rotor. (which is pretty much useless for the bot mode)
The dual swords of Springer, W-10 Airstrike Chopper Blades. The swords are full of sculpted details.
Combined the swords with the rotor spinner, it can use as a wheat cutter. (hahaha)
The combined weapon, the D.E.W. Mega Missile Launcher. (forgot to put on the spinner)
This is how I store all the weapons. (instruction menu shows combine the spinner with guns and peg on the middle peg hole, but I thought this way looks better)
Springer compares with the Generations Arcee, I think Springer is a bit taller compares to the G1 cartoon?
Springer compares to different class TF figures. Isn't Springer suppose to be shorter compared to Optimus Prime?
The new Springer figure stands beside the Generations Springer. The new Springer is shorter than the old one, but the old one look better than the new one.
The back. Hard to tell which one is better, the Generations Springer looks good and the transformation mechanism is well-engineered, and the SIEGE one looks nostalgic and works fine on transformations.
Face to face. The side of both figures doesn't even look like the same person.
Back in the year 2005, in the Autobot city.
After Springer and Arcee pull the lockdown switch, they run like hell to the entrance.
When Springer meets Starscream.
This is what all people will do if annoyed by Starscream.
"Yeah, shut your mouth, Screamie!"
You Cons should turn around and run...!
Swordmaster Springer.
Love rival from the future!?
The old day had changed, Springer...
