Among the many versions of Springer there are, I decided to get this one first because of the more modern aesthetic it has compared to the G1 style Springers and because third party stuff tends to be better than non-masterpiece first party stuff. While this figure looks nice, is made of good quality materials and has a nice amount of weight for its size, these are unfortunately the only good things I have to say about it.

My first issue with this figure is that it was broken right out of the box, and while you shouldn't let a random factory defect affect your decision to buy this it certainly soured my experience with this toy. A more serious issue is the problems it has with its connectors, tabs and pegs. Some parts of this figure very loosely, if at all, connect to other parts, which causes the figure to feel flimsy and weak in certain areas. In other areas the connections are very stubborn or are difficult to properly line up, which makes transforming this figure to be a less than fun process. The joints on this thing also feel kind of weak and make it not fun to handle in robot mode.

Based on my experiences, I honestly can not recommend buying this. If you really want a Springer that doesn't have a G1 style look you should just get the Generations Springer instead.

even though i got this way back at 2013 i still love how strong it feel i love it

I was never too much into Springer until the 2 pack with Ratbat. That Springer is one of my favorites. This is pretty sweet, too. Must have for anyone who loves Transformers. Not my favorite of the Warbots, but he is awesome.

another fansproject masterpiece, warbot fill the springer void in a classics collection that hasbro did not deliver on. all 3 modes are fun and uniqe and i find myself switchin him back and forth all the time. bein a fansproject relase his quality is top notch and i am really impreesed by there use of diecast on him.
thanx for another great piece fp

Recently ordered Warbot from here at the source. Let me 1st start things off by saying thanks to the source and also Fansproject for the packaging alone. 5 layers of protection between me and figure when i 1st opened the box. Once hes freed from his plastic prison this guy truly shines. Of course being top heavy thanks to the die cast in his chest doesn't help out posing much but when you adjust a few things on him he looks great. Considering this guy can holster his guns and then take em back out is simply amazing. No bots or cons that i know of produced in the mainstream are capable of this. Transformation from robot to car mode isn't too hard except for the arms can be a bit of pain in the butt. From car mode to helicopter can get a bit complex but the final product looks amazing. Standing next to my copy of the protector armor on hot rod all i need his ultra magnus and the city commander set to finish a very nice display piece on my shelf. Having now collected 9 pieces from Fansproject i can honestly say that i will continue to get anything that Fansproject puts out and will enjoy myself. As always thanks to the source and guys get classics ultra magnus back in if you can so this way i can finish my display piece before you run out of the city commander set. Highly recommend this figure even with the price tag of $110 not counting shipping this guy is truly worth it.

The above reviews are spot on. I also am geeked out by this guy. The sword will scare you a bit when you first feel it but it survived my four year old getting a hold of it. All around amazing product and worth every penny. Looks great with the other 3rd party (1986) movie characters.

Spri.... er I mean Warbot it awesome! Triple changes, full of articulation & extremely close resemblance to you know who. All 3 variations of this figure are a well done! You can enjoy all the modes equally! Bravo, bravo! Can't wait for Rodim.. uh I mean Protector from Fansproject as well!

do not keep this one in the box, the feel, the weight, the paint, the articulation, the smooth transformations, are all just perfect i cant stop gushing over this Transformer, please watch the reviews on this and get a taste of what im talking about and so everyone knows i know what im talkin about before this WB-01, MP-08 with upgrades was my favorite, God bless you and yours
