TransformersGenerations War for Cybertron: Siege Battle Masters WFC-S2 Lionizer Action Figure Toy

So I ended up caving in and buying siege: war for Cybertron Battle Masters lionizer not too long ago.so glad i did.These little Siege guys are fun to use with the deluxe siege figures and figures from other lines as well.Lionizer is no exception. the slashing sword effect piece he comes with cinches it.I personally think he works so well with my deluxe titans return wolfwire.

One of the best accessory figures so far in the Siege line, Lionizer is a fun little figure.From his fierce cat mode with a gun sword tail to an unlikely but effective sword, you can't go wrong with this tiny guy.If there is one thing to complain about it's the blue swoosh effect piece. It's great to use on the larger figures but doesn't really look appropriate with this figure. That's barely a complaint, and as stated it works well with the other figures from this line

Never planned on getting this since the mini-figures and COMBAT system aren't the big appeal of Siege for me, but when this was under $4, I figured "why not?" That's like a Coke in our stupid overpriced vending machine at work, so yet another Siege figure couldn't hurt. For one, Lionizer makes a far better robot cat than Ravage. Seriously, Ravage is the worst of the Siege line. Lionizer meets all your robot cat needs for sure.Of course, Lionizer transforms into a sword, since these advanced robots have tired of being able to attack enemies from long range for some reason. Then I remembered how Barricade didn't come with a gun (unless you opt to use the shoulder cannons as a gun) and how disappointing that was. I have to say I think Lionizer looks great with Barricade and gives him the assault "baton" the bad cop deserves.Unfortunately, the weapon effect is extremely limited since it's basically built for Lionizer, so I'd only recommend him if you get him on sale. He's hardly budget busting at full price, but it's hard to get excited about a robot cat with an oversized tail turning into a bulky sword. The sword itself kinda looks puny next to Megatron's or the transformed Micromaster ones, so it's probably best if Barricade (or whoever) avoids fighting those guys... Though come to think of it, they're all Decepticons, but maybe Astrotrain needs to lighten the load or something. I dunno. You figure it out.

Lionizer is a cool little transformer that turns into a sword, which is awesome.Good figure.

Fabulous! A perfect compliment to the original Lionizer. Now if only we can get a new Rad too.

The toy holds up pretty well even a reveal the shield deluxe class bumblebee can hold Lionizer as a weapon.

My main motivation for purchasing this figure was to use the sword effect part with Megatron's sword. I shouldn't have been surprised, but the effect part (and accompanying figure) are really small-- more of a dagger and less of a sword. In turn, the effect part only covers 1/2 the length of Megatron's sword-- so if this is your motivation for purchasing this figure, I recommend skipping it.The figure itself is stylistically cool! But the transformation is underwhelming and lacks imagination. The legs add kibble bulk in the weapons mode-- maybe this would have been better served as a boxing glove weapon than a dagger?
