Nosecone Deluxe Class Figures (Combiner Wars/Unite Warriors)


Nosecone transforms into a drill tank and he was one figure I really preferred in the TakaraTomy set over the Hasbro set. The Hasbro Nosecone has a pretty lame drill and is a retool of Combiner Wars Brawl. The figure has a weird waist and the legs are not that great. TakaraTomy Nosecone is a retool of Combiner Wars Rook who was a very cool figure so that plus the giant drill gives him the leg up. I like the orange/yellow/brown colour scheme of both Nosecones.

(Combiner Wars)






Very classic head sculpt. I like the design.


Not a successful torso in general.






Drill back.



Tiny drill gun.







Well the tank part looks ok but the drill part doesn't work. It's not cohesive.




Well hello robot face!






Going up?

(Unite Warriors)




Nicely painted face.

Tiny Autobot badge.



Shoulder...missile?

Blaster hand!



Now THAT'S a drill!




Knuckle blaster.





JCVD never had a giant drill hand.



Pretty good balance.

Gatling gun thigh.



For when you need to reach just a little higher...

Roundhouse kick!

Much more successful drill-tank.













Armed to the...teeth.





Safety first.


(Technobots Together)



Backpack, backpack!


SHING!


They do look nice together.






"Let's play chicken!"

"Whoa, getting close!"

"Well, that's unfortunate."

"Knock it off!"
