And this decal set includes four decal sheets on a combination of foil and vinyl backing. So now without further ado, let's take a look at the mighty Monstructor and his six individual bots both before and after toy hacks decals. And welcome to Patriot Prime Reviews. >> Patriot Prime Transformers. Now, we'll kick things off by taking a look at the individual figures first. And straight out of the packaging, we have Icepic, Slog, and Wildfly. So, taking a quick look at Icepic first. He's some sort of reptilian creature with spikes on his hands. Not a lot of paint applications. We got a big purple Decepticon insignia right there on the chest. The monster face has yellow eyes and a blue jaw. Little yellow right there for the fins. Moving on down, let's see, we got some yellow on the sides of the legs. And that's about it. He does have this mace weapon that's done up in a solid gray. Now for transformation for ice pick. Pay attention. This one is hard. Take the monster head and flip it back. Then you're going to rotate these spikes on the hands around. And there's Icepic in his robot mode. The only thing different now is the head sculpt, which is a red head, yellow visor, and gray face. And then he has this shield fist section, which is done up in painted gray. It's yellow painted gray. And that's it. And you're supposed to put that in his hand, where he's holding it like a shield. But I guess if you flip the fist around, you got like a blaster right there. So he's got a mace and he's got some large hand cannon, if you will. So there is Ice Pick. So now let's take a look at Slog. Looks like a golden gamaran guard from Return of the Jedi. Uh let's see. He's got some yellow eyes, purple gills. Uh the weaponry is done up in gold and yellow. And he has this axe that's gray and silver. He's got a very hard transformation as well. Take the legs, rotate them around, and bring this section down here. And then you'll rotate the arms. So you now have fists facing forward. Remove that weaponry. And there's Slog in robot mode, revealing a robot head that's done up in black with a light green visor and a yellow mouth plate. Big Decepticon insignia right there on the chest. His robot mode or excuse me, his beast mode sucks, but I do like his robot mode. Let's put his weapons back in his hand so you can take a look at that. There's also some paint applications right there on the side of the arms. So there you go. There is Slug. And now we'll bring in Wildfly, who has this gargantuan blaster, which just looks ridiculous in his beast mode, which is some sort of gargoyle. Now, the weapon's done up all in that gray collar. Let's see. Take the weapon out. Love the gargoyle. He looks so cool. The paint applications, especially on the face with the eyes and the teeth. Some paint applications there on the forearms. And I believe that's it. Another simple transformation. We're going to flip the legs around. Bring the beast head down, revealing the robot head. And there you go. Great looking head sculpt. I love those red eyes and that silver face or gray face, excuse me. Lots of sculpted detailing. We got Decepticon insignas there on the wings. And that's pretty much it. So, let me go ahead and give him his big old blaster back, which looks a little bit better in his robot mode. So, there you go, guys. There is Icepic, Slog, and Wildfly before and after. Let's start with Ice Pick once again. First, bringing him in for a closer look. He gets a brand new gold visor, new decals for the chest that includes an optional Decepticon insignia. Now you have a big decal here for the main part and then two smaller decals that go on these red hinges for the bicep. He gets a foil teal decals, foil teal for the hips, some gold on either side of the knees, and that's it for robot mode. Let's go ahead and get him transformed into his beast mode real quick. Removing the shield. Oh yeah, show off show off the club here, which gets new teal decals on the circles on each side along with a new yellow circle around the tip. Let's see. Let's go ahead and flip out his spikes and do this hard transformation. We're going to flip up this monster head. And there's Ice Pick in his monster mode. He gets new gold eyes, a new chrome teal jawline and new decals for the frills. And let's see, chrome decals for his spikes that look great. I love how those catch the light. And then everything else we've already seen. I'll bring in the shield real quick, which is the fist gun, which gets some decals, but I'll go over that more with Monstructor himself. Now, let's bring in Slog. And Slog gets a brand new teal decal for his visor. New decals for the chest. You have a Decepticon insignia here. And then a larger decal that goes on this black section. New gold decals on the shoulders. And then down here on the forearms. For the shins, we get new gold decals as well. A silver decal that goes along the red that the figure originally had. And then for the weapons, the axe gets new chrome red highlights in those recesses. And that's it for robot mode. Let's remove the weapons and get him transformed into his whatever the hell he is. And there we go. There's his beast mode, which gets new gold eyes. New black decal up here for the crest. new purple foil decals on all those gills. Now, there are lots of decals here. You got a larger decal that goes on the main gill section, and then there are smaller decals that fill it in. So, once you get that all done, that looks really good. There's new red chrome decals on either side of his gut. And we've already seen the decals for the legs. So, there is Slog. Now, let's take a look at Wildfly, who gets brand new red eye decals that really catch the light. So, we got new red eye decals for the bot mode and the beast mode. New red decals for the shoulders, silver decals down here on the shins, and then decals for the wings here on the inside. And let's get him transformed real quick. I will show off the weapon decals. You got some black right there inside that pipe. new metallic decals for the scope and you can see the crosshairs right there on the tip of the scope. So there is gargoyle mode and he gets new decals here on the back of the wings. Got one, two, three on each side with a longer decal that goes right there and a smaller decal for the tip. New purple decals on the sides of the legs and silver decals on the bottom of the feet that now make it look like vents for the beast mode. So pretty cool. I love the looks of wildfly. Let's see. Take his head down. There we go. So yeah, there he is in his gargoyle mode. So there you go guys. There is Icepic, Slog, and Wildfly. After next up for the individual bots straight out of the packaging, we have Bird Brain, Scowl, and Bristleback. Bringing Bird Brain in first. He is a wild looking monster. He's some kind of bird thing. He's got a great looking face sculpt with the red eyes and the beak, little batwing things on the ears. Love the sculpted detailing on that. Massive rocket launchers on his back. Done up all in gray, but the rockets themselves are yellow. And that's it. Lots of great sculpted detailing on this figure. Really like him. So, his transformation is a little bit more wonky than some of the others. So, we're going to remove the rocket launchers first. Then, we're going to kind of bend him down. Let's see. Bring these wing things up out of the way. Bring the arms up and around and snap him in half. This figure drives me nuts because he just does not peg together. Well, go ahead and peg him together here. And then we're going to flip this section out forming the legs. And let's see. Bring this down. And there we go. There is bird brain in his robot mode. Uh some more paint applications have shown up with the head sculpt, which is kind of a weird looking face. Red visor, yellow face. We got some yellow for the chest along some silver. Little Decepticon insignia right there. More yellow on the knees. And then he can wield these massive blasters. Let's see. I guess you peg him in. Oh yeah, there's pegs right here. So you peg those in on the side of his arms like so, which still looks absolutely ridiculous, but I dig it. That's cool. All right, our next one up is Scal, who's some kind of wolf monster thing all done up in yellow with the nice purple. He's got really nice purple for the head, the arms, and the back section here. And he's got this weapon that just fell right off his back. Love this. It's some kind of scythe silver blade. And you got the gray handle. It's also got a little yellow sword. Purple Decepticon insignia there for the chest. Got a little bit of red right there. Robot mode. Let's go ahead and get him transformed. Pretty simple. Once again, we're going to flip these legs around. And I like this. You split the robot head, the beast head. If I can get my fingernails in there. There we go. Split that wide open, revealing the robot face, which has red eyes and a green face. I do like that. And that's about it. There's no real new paint applications for robot mode. Let's go ahead and give them his weapons back. So, yeah, I dig the weapons on that guy. So, there is Scal. And lastly, we're bringing in Bristle Back. Has a gold turtle shell. Little bit of silver right here on the front. Big old hand cannon mortar launcher on his back. Color scheme for the lower part looks really good with the blue. Love the face sculpt with the orange eyes and the silver tusk. Getting him transformed. We're going to remove that part. Flip the legs around and bring these over. Bring the arms out and around. Bring the head down revealing the robot face which is all blue with an orange visor. gray face, purple Decepticon insignia right there. And let's rotate that around so it looks better. So there you go. Not a lot of paint applications on Bristleback. And of course, you can give him his hand cannon to wield as well in robot mode. So there you go, guys. We've got Bird Brain, Scal, and Bristleback before and after. Let's take a look at Bird Brain first. Starting with these big old missile pods that get some highlights that go right around the missile. So, some nice looking chrome that really makes that look a lot better. I'm going to go ahead and take these off for the rest of the look at robot mode. Bring them in for a closer look. He gets a brand new red visor, a new purple decal that goes right here, new Decepticon insignia on the waist, new yellow and silver decals above the wrists. Moving on down to the legs, he gets some gold right there for the kneecaps, and some yellow and silver right below the knees. So, now let's get him transformed into his beast mode. We'll go ahead and flip that head up. So, for beast mode, he gets a brand new gold chrome beak, some red eyes, some highlights that go right around the shoulders here on the front and on the back side. He gets some highlights as well. You got a circle decal, a decal that goes right down the center, and some black. And you see the decals from earlier for the legs. Now, we'll reattach these rocket pods so you can check these out in beast mode. You also see some decals here on the back that we'll go over more with Monstructor. But there is Bird Brain all armed and ready for battle and looking pretty sweet. Now, let's bring in Scal. Starting off with his weapon cuz I'm going to get it out of the way first. Gets a new red decal that goes right in that recess that really makes that pop along with some yellow decals that go right there on either side. Now, a sword doesn't get any decals at all, which is unfortunate. And then taking a closer look at Scal. Brand new eye decals. A new Decepticon insignia for the chest. New purple decal here, here, and multiple purple decals that fill out this stomach section. There's also new red foil decals that go right there on the chest on either side of this hinge. The forearms get decals as well. Moving on down to the legs. Big purple, yellow, and silver decals on the shins. Really makes that pop. And that's pretty much it for robot mode. Let's get him transformed into his wolf monster mode. Close up the head. Wolf monster doesn't really get anything other than some new eyes and new details for the lower jaw. kind of gives him a trap jaw look. There's also little decals right there on either side of the head. And that's it. This back section gets some decals as well. I'll go over that more with Monstructor. And then finally, we have Bristleback. I love what they did for him. He really I think he's my favorite of the bunch. He gets a brand new gold visor, new decal for the chest with a new Decepticon insignia, some red decals right here with some silver, some teal chrome decals right there. The shoulders get new decals as well. Moving on down to the legs, we got some more chrome teal and some gold chrome for the legs. Uh his weapon, you do get a decal right there on that blaster section. Now, let's get him transformed into his war turtle mode. And thanks to the magic of editing, here he is in beast mode. Now, the beast mode head gets brand new gold eye decals and some more chrome teal that really adds some nice highlights. I love the ones above the eyes. He also gets Gatlin guns on either side of the head. How cool is that? This is one well-armed turtle. Here on the sides, we get new decals right there. More decals here on the joints of the legs. You see the decal right here on the front leg, two on the back, and then you have a decal that wraps around the knee section. On the back is the gold chrome that we saw earlier. And then of course you can take the weapon and mount it on his back just like so. So there you go guys, there is Bird Brain, Scowl, and Bristleback after in combined mode. Straight out of the packaging, Monstructor looks really good and a great homage to the original generation 1 toy. Now bringing Monstructor in for a closer look. Let's check out that head sculpt. Normally, I'm not a fan of the IDW look, but I think they did Monstructor some justice with that skeletal face. The helmet's all done up in yellow. He's got some bright red eyes and a gray face. And you can see the molded in teeth right there. Looks awesome. Now, the chest is Slo. You can see Slog's monster head right there. You got the purple gills. Lots of sculpted in details right there. Uh the torso is bird brain. Now, we do have a new accessory here with this ab section, which is the bronze and silver and red. I do like the looks of that. And then we got purple and black thighs. Moving on down to the legs where we've got scowl and ice pick. Not a lot of differences right there. The arms of course are bristle back and wildfly. Little bit of paint applications here. And really, that's about it. We've pretty much seen everything that Monstructor has to offer thanks to the individual bots. Now, let's bring in the combined weapons. We've got the big Hallebert, I believe that's called, which looks awesome combined. The whole shaft is that light purple. We've got the silver blade here and here with the yellow sword on top. And then we've got his big blaster, which is a combination of Wildflies two guns. So there you go guys, Monstructor before and after. Monstructor is an absolute beast now thanks to toy hacks. Now most of these decals we've seen before with the individual robot modes, but Monstructor himself does get a few of his own. Bringing him in for a closer look. Let's start with the head. Trying to focus in here. He's got brand new red eye decals and a new red and black decal that goes inside the mouth. And I love how that makes the face look now. That is awesome. Also, here on the back, if you bring Slog's legs up slightly, he now has either missile pods or lights. So, I really like the looks of that. Speaking of Slog, you can see his red chrome decals now make up Monstructor's chest. Then you got the purple chrome here that was on Slog's head along with the gold eyes. And you got the black crest that really makes that whole chest area pop. Now, as far as bird brains concerned, the only real decal we're seeing with him is the Decepticon insignia on the waist. Moving on to Wildfly, we've got the head of the gargoyle, the decals inside the wings. Now, here on this yellow fist section, we've got the purple stripe that goes around and a red and purple section right there. And then on the fists where the guns are sculpted, there's like heat suppressors and that's on both fists. Really like the looks of that. On bristle back, we see all the decals that we've seen before. Moving on down to the legs with Scal. He has this back plate section now that has lots of decals with some red and silver purple. There's some little yellow decals that go in those little purple hole sections and a new decal right there with a Decepticon insignia. Slog's foot plate gets a yellow decal. Moving on over to Ice Pick, he gets a red decal. And then you can make out all those awesome chrome enhancements that he has that just absolutely work so well with Monstructor. Now let's bring in the weapon that just looks amazing all decaled up with the red highlights. You got the purple here and or is that teal? I'm so color blind when it comes to looking through camera, but I love the way that foil catches the light. Looks so good. little yellow highlights right there. I do wish there was more decals for the sword. But man, that just looks so good. And then we've got his blaster now that has the metallic on the scope along with the little sight section that gives that a little bit of extra look. And oh yeah, there are some black decals that go right in there around that pipe section to kind of give it more of a 3D look. So there you go, guys. Monstructor after Toy Hacks did an amazing job with their decal set for Transformers Age of the Primes Monstructor. I think every mode benefited from this decal set, the beast mode, the robot modes, and of course the combined modes. This decal set added a lot more color and personality to this awesome generation 1 inspired combiner. So, what do you guys think about the toy hacks decal set for Age of the Primes Monstructor?
