another vehical from the movie that didn't make it in :( wish there was more thought put into his transforming.like w/ blackout, the top of the plain doesn't really move when you transform him it becomes more like a shell and a third leg to balance him. also he has no hands just the propellers from the wings. the toy, also isn't the best for kids because of all the popping and snapping parts.

I only have one problem with this Transformer, and it is not upside down engines (I would not have noticed had other reviewers not pointed it out).
The only thing I don't particularly like on this guy are the propeller hands. I would have much preferred that they pivot to the side so they would be on his wrists (like Autobot Blades) and have pop out hands (or the blades given a hinge to become giant clasping hands themselves). Even if you had to lose the auto-rotate function, it would have been worth it.
Other than that, it's a great addition to my collection. Easy transformation without losing detail in either mode.

Was kind of hard to transform, parts fall off. Kids still like to play with it.

YOU TUBE is your best source- just type in the name of the transformer in the search box, and there you have it! Probably the easiest instructions (and a good review too) you can get. Nice quality toy-(A fairly decent representation of a V22 Osprey), can convert it in less than a minute now, kinda like a simplified rubics cube,(think of it as kind of a cool puzzle). My 4 year old son loves it(although he needs daddy's help to convert it). ALSO DON'T PAY MORE THAN $19.99 FOR THIS TOY!!

I saw this model on a website prior to its release and was instantly drawn to it. Even though it's not from the movie, and I'm not a big fan of alternative models, I have to say, it's a great addition to the movie toy line.
Pros:
-The transformation was very easy compared to some of the other voyager models. It was also very creative; in plane mode, you can barely make out the robot beneath.
-The arms and legs have a wide range of articulation. The arms can be rotated and bent in almost any direction. Even though Incinerator has the plane tail behind his back like Blackout, the legs are not as stiff and can be posed with relative ease.
Cons:
-Like the previous review, the engines are upside-down/switched. I tried to open them to put them on the correct side, but it is glued down from the front so removing the screws didn't help. Unfortunately, there is no way to correct this without breaking the toy to remove them.
-The spinning blades do not work well. Mostly because there are two of them placed far away from the trigger AND sharing the same mechanism. Blackout's spin is much better. But this does not take away from the attractiveness of the toy.
Overall, I gave this a 5 because the pros heavily outweighs the cons.
