Power of the Primes Punch-Counterpunch is an all-new "Special Edition” Deluxe Class mold that transforms into either robot mode as well as a supercar resembling an Infiniti G37 with the front end of a Camaro and Volk TE37 wheels. The transformation includes a flip-out helmet and fists for each robot mode, as well as two-way knees, elbows, and a simple rearrangement of kibble. Instead of the Twin Mortar Launcher and/or the Photon Cannon, Punch-Counterpunch comes with a single orange gun based on his weapon in The Headmasters cartoon.Like all other Power of the Primes Deluxe Class figures, he comes with Prime Armor (identical to the one included with Jazz) with a place for a Prime Master, Enigma, or Matrix core that can transform into a hand or foot for a separate combiner. He also comes with the Prime Master Prima Prime, which can interact with the figure via the Titan Master/Prime Master pegs on the back of his car or the included Prime Armor. In an undocumented (and likely accidental) feature, Prima can be stored folded up inside the driver’s compartment in car mode. Punch’s gun can also be mounted on either of the Prime Armor’s 5 mm holes or mount on the top of his car mode or be clipped under the chassis.Unlike all other Deluxes in the subline, Punch-Counterpunch lacks the combiner peg, making him the first non-Combiner Deluxe or Voyager Class figure released in this lineup.Punch-Counterpunch also suffers a slight misassembly: his shoulder joints are installed upside down, making it harder for the arms to tab in properly in vehicle mode. This can be easily repaired without any tools. His box art shows Punch’s chest and the gun accessory to be yellow colored, instead of the orange of the actual figure. Also, care must be taken while rolling his vehicle mode as Punch’s chest piece and Counterpunch’s painted feet are very, VERY close to the ground. While rolling him on a flat surface is fairly safe, a rough surface can damage both of these areas.This set was an Amazon exclusive in the U.S., initially revealed via preorder listing without any prior announcement from Hasbro. It was also available at general retail in Hong Kong, the Philippines, Malaysia, and Singapore.
