This is easily my favorite RotF, and Movieverse in general, Deluxe toy. Overall, I’m extremely happy with this toy. Not quite as standout as TFA Lockdown in this aspect, but it’s good that they did include even this characteristic.Īrticulation is far superior to TFA Lockdown’s, primarily in the legs. There are also slight differences on his upper legs, and there's a part sticking out on the right side of his waist that isn't there on the left.
His shoulders are different, and his upper arms are different colors. While more subtle on RotF Lockdown, there are still some asymmetrical parts. One trademark characteristic of TFA Lockdown’s looks were the asymmetrical parts. Also, the hook and regular hand can rotate out fully, unlike the weird hands that TFA Lockdown has. Supposedly it can also be used by RotF Deluxe Ratchet, which is an awesome nod to the same gimmick in their TFA incarnations. You detach it as part of the transformation, then attach it to his arm. On his left arm, Lockdown’s engine block becomes a "weapon" much like with TFA Lockdown. This arm has a gimmick where a piston moves when you move the arm back and forth. The only problem with the hook is that it is soft, bendy plastic. On his arms, RotF Lockdown has a hook in place of his right hand another crossover from TFA Lockdown. His legs also have “windows” on the thighs that reveal grey plastic mechanical pieces that move when you rotate his legs at the knees.

On the plus side, they are a lot more poseable than TFA Lockdown’s legs one of that toy’s problems. His legs look similar to TFA Lockdown’s in that he has wheels on his hips and the feet look similar, but the legs themselves are digitigrades and might not appeal to everyone. His face has character to it, though, and is a little more humanoid than most other Movieverse Transformers. He has the same head shape, with the extended neck and even a TFA-esque though this chin is less exaggerated and has spikes sticking out of either side. He’s tall and lanky about the same height as TFA Lockdown (a little shorter) but taller than other Deluxes and about the same height as Voyagers. He's still primarily dark brown with green paint, but he also gets black plastic on his legs and arms and more light grey plastic. Again, he retains a lot of TFA Lockdown’s physical characteristics. He is definitely my favorite Movieverse Deluxe toy for the robot mode alone. Kind of a cross between “Fast and Furious” and “Death Race.” Also, where TFA Lockdown seems angled and bulky, RotF Lockdown seems sleek, but deadly. It seems more colorful, and I like the dark orange windows. mode better than the original Lockdown’s. He has a much more prominent spoiler, too. Like TFA Lockdown, he has spikes on the roof and hubcaps, as well as the “cow-catcher” fender.

There is also some gold paint, a purple Decepticon emblem on the roof, and the windows and headlights are translucent orange. It has the same look: primarily dark, dark brown (instead of black) with some green paint (in the same design as TFA Lockdown) and grey plastic. Lockdown’s “hunter car” mode is essentially a more “realistic” version of Animated Lockdown’s vehicle mode. I absolutely love that Movieverse Lockdown and Ratchet are rivals like the TFA Lockdown and Ratchet were maybe we’ll get to see it played out in a comic someday. LOCKDOWN has never lost a target, and he doesn't intend for this to be the first time. His services don't come cheap, but he's the best there is at what he does. Once he's accepted a contract, nothing short of total deactivation can stop him. LOCKDOWN was hired to hunt down and destroy AUTOBOT RATCHET, and that's what he aims to do. As the first collector to review TFA Lockdown, I'm happy to give the first review of RotF Lockdown!
When I found out that there would be an RotF toy based on Animated Lockdown, I was pretty excited…and this toy did not disappoint me. Transformers Animated Lockdown is my all-time favorite Decepticon character. In the holiday spirit, I figured I’d share it with all of you! Today I got an early Christmas present from China: Revenge of the Fallen Deluxe Lockdown.
