Overview

A Rise of the Beasts fan or Transformers collector gets a Leader Class Apelinq that converts from robot to ape mode and comes with four accessories. An articulated head, arms and legs allow action poses on a tabletop.

Size and accessories give a display shelf a substantial centerpiece from the movie, and the ape mode adds a second look. The limitation is conversion patience and the absence of any warranty.

Who it's for

Fans of the film and kids at or above the listed age who like converting and posing figures. Anyone expecting lights, sound or a short conversion should look at a different toy.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Leader Class size for display
  • Four movie-inspired accessories
  • Articulated head, arms and legs
  • Converts to ape mode
Cons
  • Long conversion sequence
  • No warranty offered
  • Tabletop display piece only

Performance notes

Conversion is a long step-by-step sequence between robot and ape modes, so patience matters more than strength. Poses come from the articulated head, arms and legs, and the sword, axe, arm blades and Transwarp key give more ways to arrange it. Nothing is powered, so handling is manual.
