Street Speed Team - Armada - Figures

Love toy cars, love 'em to bits. No idea why, I just do.

Car modes: Oval, Spiral and Backtrack, one orange, one blue and one green. I don't know the make of cars they are, but they are very well made. The detail on all three is excellent, my favourite one is the blue one, I tend to fotget mini con names.

Their loose though, the blue one especially. I admire the effort put into them, but do they have to fall apart when you lightly touch them? Oh well, at least they're fun in this mode, a lot of fun, if not perfect.

Robot modes: For such tiny wee toys, they're awkward to transform. Big fingers just don't have much luck with these wee guys. Anyway, once transformed they all stand fairly well and they look ok. Their legs can pose, their arms can't really, also their heads don't turn. I have to admit to being disappointed with their robot modes, there's plenty of detail, but nothing that really catches your eye.

Also they tend to fall apart while transforming them, which is very annoying. And do they actually have a use to be honest? So far I don't see much of a use.

Not a bad team, still prefer the Air Defence and Land Military teams, but they are fun in their car modes and if you're gentle then they'll hold together quite well. I do feel they could be better as bigger main Transformers though, Jazz would be perfect as a remake of the orange one. And I wish I would remember the mini con names more.
