Speaking as someone who owns the G1, I feel like Doubledealer is a figure saved in many ways by its gimmick. The twin Powermasters not only add in a distinct fun factor, offering up 3 figures in one and the novelty of each Powermaster unlocking one a different alt mode, but the functionality of Powermasters also gives each mode a feeling of solidity that is seemingly lacking here. It's a genuine shame, as Doubledealer was the figure I was MOST excited for in Earthrise, as he's one of my favorite G1 bots.

You seem to have missed many of the actual steps and features that they are meant to go. For the bird mode, youre supposed to clip the whole missile on the back with the ramp piece pegging into the ports to make tailfeathers. Thats how the instructions show them. So yes, the missile and ramp can be attached to the top at the same time. I bought him and i love him greatly.

Hello internet! Welcome to Toy Theory. I don’t think all of Doubledealer’s faults are from a lack of care. What if they were deliberate? What if this was Hasbro’s way of saying “Oh you fans want a bigger leader class? Clearly you do because you won’t stop complaining about it. Well this is what you get. THIS IS WHAT YOU GET. A MESS. ALL OF THE MONEY GOES INTO ITS SIZE AND MASSIVE ACCESSORIES AND ALL YOU GET IS A HOLLOW FUMBLING MESS. GOOD DAY SIR.” But they couldn’t leave the poor character alone to die in a pit of contempt so they added all those nice features in the robot mode. But hey that’s just a theory. A TOY THEORY. Playtime’s over.

I get where you're coming from, you have points..... I still wanna get him though, none of those problems bother me too much. Only thing I can really say I disagree with you on is that on a missile truck thing, it'd make sense for there to be like, some kind of bits there... like, I'm not too familiar with that kind of vehicle, but they do look like something it would have. It's just a shame, considering there is a flat side to that arm, that they couldn't just let that arm bend backwards and forwards so you could twist it around, then just put a hole on the smooth plastic arm piece where the fists wind up. Extra Siege port, and now it doesn't look like too much of a mess, and you'd really only have to remove materials to make it work. Of course he's nowhere close to perfect, but something about the goofiness of double dealer makes me cut him a little more slack, cuz somehow he winds up looking cool anyway. Honestly.... I gotta say, I'm rethinking it, and I really don't think the truck mode is that bad, it's mostly cohesive to my eye, that little gap in the blue bits didn't bother me much, I feel like of exposed heads, it's not really that bad of one, it's not like his actual face is sitting out the back. The link up parts-forming ramp thing I get in vehicle mode, because it's like so he can attach to a base for stability, which kinda feels like something a big artillery vehicle would do. I guess if I had to pick the biggest problem with that mode, it's that they shoulda made that flap that the missile sits on a ratchet or something.

Really wish I had seen this in Spring 2023 when I decided to grab this guy off of Amazon. Was really impressed by Legacy's Blitzwing earlier in the year despite being small, having useless bits and a compromised jet mode which I didn't even mind much. Engineering was brilliant, plastic quality was great and he had superb articulation. TBF Earthrise is quite a bit older but for similarly priced figure Double Dealer is an absolute disappointment all around. I can forgive the missile truck/bird as compromised as they are as they look about as accurate and nicely detailed as the G1 iteration but the bot mode for this guy is where he fails hard. Absolutely agree with everything from the waist up, but legs despite being too short/hollow have the worst double hinging I've ever seen on a TF. And yes I did pop the leg out during transformation. After some disassembly miraculously wedged it back in place without breaking it which surprised even me. The only saving grace I guess is the hinge is only needed for bird mode so truck and robot are easy enough. Great point about the next to useless accessories as aside from the rocket, and maybe gun it would have been better to see more of the budget go into a better leg design.

Loose joints, bad engineering, and the only GOOD accessories are locked away in an exclusive pack of 4 micromasters. Also, for what it counts, I hear most people being.... okay with the T30 mold, it's more the Blitzwing original that people hate cause of rampant QC issues on that release and terrible yellow paint keeping the face gimmick from working unless you take the entire head apart just to scrape off the paint on the peg.

Welp the day of reckoning has come. But on a more opinionated note on the figure. It’s... alright. Is it the best leader class of the siege/earthrise line.I would be lying if I said yes. Astrotrain and prime easily outclass him.The biggest problem with him for me at least is definitely the hollowness that I felt could’ve been dealt with if they didn’t give him those 3 extra accessories. Or downscaling him if you want to keep them can work. Sure they are other flaws like the wheels being a bit too small for my liking and the arms being loose but like I say it’s alright. Not bad. Not good. Just alright. But then again maybe it’s because I have no connections to the character could be why I think that. Overall doubledealer is a 3/5 and is definitely the weakest leader class of siege earthrise and maybe kingdom.

I'm actually glad Kingdom Rodimus is avoiding that engineering, because from what I see of Hot Rod, it's not the fun kind of complexity, and the result is a bit subpar for what the complex engineering is supposed to achieve. I don't believe he needed to have a faux chest, so good thing Rodimus isn't doing that. Siege Astrotrain is still CHUGGING AWESOME, size be damned. He'll just have to be the shrimp between him, Blitzwing, and Octane, sadly. As for the actual main event....okay, any semblance of thinking he looked cool enough to possibly overcome any lack of knowledge or attachment to the character, as was the case with Titans Return Octane or Legends Nightbird Shadow, was blasted Starscream-style, because YEEESH!

It's a shame, but someone in a forum (and apparently the ONLY person in that thread who actually understood the topic while everyone else *willingly* threw their brains to the Pit, even after the guy laid it out clearly) at least guessed that the brand unification thing is an attempt to combat the sort of false competition Hasbro was having with Takara with for that very reason: people were just buying the Takara versions coz they had the better work, especially deco, among other things. Can anyone verify that? But otherwise, it's what makes the most sense in explaining the whole dealio.

This is pretty bad especially when the far superior bird transformer exists at a deluxe class price and him being a leader class means it is inexcusable I mean really airrazor is way better

I have no idea why you literally got mad at this toy. If you knew you weren't going to like him, why did you even buy him? So much undeserved negative feedback Double-Dealer got. There's no reason to get so worked up over a toy. Geez...

I really hated this review. The conversions you did were incomplete and the fast paced squawking that you called commentary was absolutely dreadful.

Parts forming has existed since the G1 transformers. So get the F over it. G1 Optimus Prime for example.

Actually most lines have progressed beyond the need for partsforming. Whether you're okay with it or not, the partsforming is a step down from other generations lines. G1 mirage snaps in half. Should the generations toy do the same?

..... Ok,Just WOW..SWEAT PRIMUS, are you ok doctor? Like SYRIESLY, what I was saying ealier about "angry TJomegas with glasses" was just a joke in poor taste but this, WOW. Like really, even with a bullscrap fest that was Platinum Edition Prime Ultra Magnus you didn't make that much NOICE and conplaing. Like, I can understand your anger and I agree that parts forming here is done very, VERY poorly, (at least the part making the tail) and the hollow front of the truck. But besides that, I known this is just my opinion but sorry, to say you're "OVERREACTING" in this case is an "UNDERSTATEMENT". Not saying you wrong, but you gived TOO MUCH flak this figure them it deserfes...( but, AGAIN, it is just my opinion)...
