TF Review HFTDTerradive

This review is a tryout for other figure reviews such as gundam, transformers, figuarts and others.So I am reviewing Hunt for the Decepticons Terradive. Terradive is a jet based on the Sukhoi SR-47. now in the jet mode is a variant of the cockpit, one is translucent orange and what I believe to be the variant a semi-translucent red cockpit. The jet colors are mostly orange with a black tip of the jet that forms two black lines going down the jet to the tail fins and white wings tips. The transformation is pretty easy when you know how to transform it but at first there is one step that if you can not figure out  it can mess up the body entirely. I would recommended the instructions for one then you can do it with out them. The robot mode is really nice looking, there is no kibble on it what so ever. Though I am not a fan of the chest due to how bulky it seems and how easy it is to mess up. The head is a very good sculpt but the light piping is clear and the eyes are painted red so when you shine the light though you see red with the regular light coming out of the edges. The arms are very good in look and articulation but mine seems a little tight when you move the arm away from the body, on the right shoulder is a 3 mm clip so it can hold the other weapons and Terradives weapon. The body is really nice but due to the transformation there is a small gap between the chest and back. The legs are very good and simple in transformation, the feet seem reversed to me where the black heel should be the foot while the white part is the heel but since it is the white part is the foot I feel like it breaks up the black and grey on the legs. The winds on the legs are a nice way to use the legs but on the right leg the wing on mine likes to pop out no matter how hard I press. The weapon is a trident which can fold up and placed on the underside of the jet and since it uses the 3mm clip and a clip on the back there are multiple ways to hold the weapon. The only con I have with the trident which is the side points of the trident is not that secure and does not plug in the well when the top is pulled down and the trident does feel really brittle. So overall Terradive is a very well done figure with a few problems but they can be overlooked so I give Terradive a 9 out of 10
