Customer Reviews

Neat looking
The big bad villain the Fallen. He has a nice or should I say interesting bot mode. The "jet" mode is pushing it very obvious they created the bot first and just thought they could convert him into something that looks vehicle-ish.

He's limited as far as posing goes. He can only move his head in and out for this "energy panels" He has no ball joints for wrists so again it can only go up and down. Legs and arms have free movement though.

He's pretty sturdy though his leg did pop off once, but I popped it back in and had no problems ever since.

His feet are kind of annoying if you move him too much. Other wise I like the fact that they just plop into place if you set him onto a hard smooth surface.

Overall he's awesome looking overall though limited in certain aspects but definitely worth the [...]. Would recommend.

A great toy to some...
Overall, this is a great toy, but it does have some downsides. Here is a list of pros and cons:

Pros: Great articulation and detail. It also has many moving "Mech-Alive" features that do not negatively effect the toys value.

Cons: These wouldn't matter to the average buyer, but the toys paint scheme is a tad inaccurate to the movie. He is an odd shade of dark green, and not matte black, and he lacks the reflective turquoise on his headdress spikes. He also lacks the spear he has in the movie, but a you could find one around your house.

Pro/Con: He transforms, which he lacks the ability to do in the movie and comics, which is a bonus for some, and a burden for others.


The cons might make the pros look fewer and far between, but if paint accuracy isn't that big of a matter, this toy is perfect. If paint does matter, don't get me wrong, this is a great MOLD for you. Hasbro has designed a more accurate, flame deco version, which will be released around November, just in time for the Holiday Season.

The Fallen!
I really needed to get The Fallen for my TF collection. One of things that disappointed me even before I bought this figure was the fact that the ROTF toyline doesn't have any Ultra Class figures. Ideally, the Fallen should be bigger than the a regular Voyager class... so either Ultra or Leader.

Kinda put off by the fact that this hands can't hold anything (gun/spear), and not really impressed by the 'solar panels' around his head and arms. Beyond that, the concept with his feet are really cool and he poses pretty well.

The transformation to the jet was one of more difficult ones I've done, but not impossible. I think the jet mode is really lame though... as some others mentioned, they made the robot and figured they had to come up with an alternate mode and just force-fitted the alien destroyer mode. It's not bad, but not great either.

That said, I think this is a pretty cool toy. Very sinister looking and movie accurate, but even otherwise... you can imagine him to the be arch-villain behind Megatron.
