While I agree that the mold, especially the altmode, fits better with Blades, every picture I saw of Blade's robotmode looked kind of ugly to me because of the toyish paintsheme. Springer on the other hand looks decent in both modes and the rotating blades on his forearm are a nice hommage to his original sword.
Cool Review! I'm really growing to this figure and will get it at ebay, I think.
The Warbot Defender Version might be the better one, being more G1 accurate, tripple changing and so on, this one here is the only spinger I know whose Altmode looks like an vehicle from present Earth, not complete realistic but also not sci fi. G1 accurate or not, this is a great plus for me + he is a lot cheaper to get then Warbot + he transforms more easily and faster. So this is my favourite.
@theprimo100 If I remember correctly, ed-209 was some sort of an enforcement robot or something like that from the movie Robocop. I could be wrong though cause I haven't seen those movies in a really long time.
I love your review. Great coverage. Do you have a review of the original G1 Springer? If you do, I guess I couldnt find it. Your G1 reviews take me back to the glory days long gone. Keep em comin, and I'll keep watching.
i was also thinking his head looked very much like kup. If they ever reuse that head in a kup toy i won't be complaining. At least hes got somewhere to store the key in robot mode.
I get the ED-209 reference... does that mean we're old, dude? great review Paul, i was kind of on the fence about getting this guy, but now i see he's really great. Keep em' comin' Mr. Botimus
wait he replaced Ironhide and is good paws with Rodimus (i hate Rodimus) i'm not so sure that this character is one of my favorites, awesome review though
Hey, are you Eva Unit 4a from CollectionDX? I watched a video with him and now this video... I noticed that both of you sound the same! Please clarify this!
luckily though...since you don't see my mouth or anything talking..it doesn't mess things up too much..but i have noticed this happening a lot more in my recent videos
it is out of sync the volume is anyways

This is a good figure, but Its GREATLY unfortunate that they couldn't release a triple-changer version. That's the only thing that kills it for me.
Oh, and BoulderNumber3 isn't the only one experiencing that audio problem. There's gotta be a way to fix it...

I love this mold, I have him as Blades, but I do think they could have done more for Springer than just a repaint.
