Awesome! Every last detail of this figure’s sculpt and transformation were amazingly well conceived.īased on the initial news, I wasn’t all that happy that Drift was going to be taking up a precious slot in the Generations line up, but now that I have him in hand, I’ll admit he’s a fantastic figure and well worthy of a seat amongst the other Classics style Autobots.


Drift also comes with a huge two handed sword that stores on his back while he’s in robot form or underneith his auto form. I absolutely love the way this feature was designed. But even I cannot deny that the real cool thing about Drift is the way his doors become scabbards with removable tanto knives. Against his enemies, he wields legendary warrior skills with a mastery no one can match. Now, I’ll admit I’m not all that big a fan of swords and knives with my Transformers. Autobot Drift also known as Master Swordsman is a true martial artist in combat. His mostly white paint scheme as a car gives way to more of a two tone in his robot form, which I’ll confess looks quite good. Drift also has a great, classic looking head sculpt. The way the windshield becomes his chest is also a bit different to what we’ve seen before and it looks nice. Not only does it look great, but it adds to the arm articulation quite a bit. The way his legs fold out of the rear of the car is nothing new, but I absolutely love the way the front quarter panels become his shoulders, along with some snazzy double-hinged plate action. In robot mode, Drift is just plain cool, thanks to a fairly unique style of transformation and some really neat features. I have to imagine that Hasbro has a repaint of this figure in mind and I’ll be looking forward to it, because a figure this well designed really needed a more interesting paint job. This guy could have at least used a little more silver to liven things up. He’s also got Asian-style emblems emblazoned on his doors, which I’m not crazy about. He’s mostly white with some red splashes on his sides and red stripes on his hood. On the downside Drift’s colors are a pretty blah. I like the clear windows, the spoiler and profile are also nice. 97 cent shipping is a great deal, but the cards get totally mangled in the paper shipper envelopes they use.ĭrift’s car form is a somewhat generic, but overall nice looking sports car. Good thing I open these things, because I ordered my Drift figure from Walmart online. The artwork is nice and there’s a cool bio blurb on the back about how he used to fight for the Decepticons.
