Abominus

This is part six of my six part Terrorcon spotlight. This is the moment you all have been waiting for; this is the combined mode of the five Terrorcon beasts...Abominus! Although he does look a little different from his original animated form, this figure is simply awesome.

Transforming the Terrorcons to Abominus is virtually the same as any other Scramble City style combiner. You basically transform the bots to their limb modes and the limbs' heads are the super robot connectors. Plug the four bots into Hun-Gurrr, plug in the foot plates and the hands, attach the chest plate, flip Hun-Gurrr's robot legs to the super mode position, and attach Abominus' head.

What makes this figure one of the best combined Transformers from Generation One is the added articulation from Hun-Gurrr. Abominus is capable of more movement than that of his super robot brethren. My only gripe about the figure is the pinkish look of the chest plate and his white helmet. I much preferred the animated color scheme to this because it added to the ferocity of the character. This color scheme makes him look not so tough. Oh well, that's what custom paint apps are for right? This figure was also the only special team to never be released in the United States as a gift set. He was released as a gift set, but only in Japan.
