Kickback
Description:
Kickback (Deluxe Class, 2022)
TakaraTomy ID number: TL-04
TakaraTomy release date: August 27, 2022
Accessories: 2 Energon blades, "Electrothermic Blast Tube"
Part of the first wave of Legacy Deluxe Class toys, Kickback is a cartoon-accurate version of the character which transforms into a robotic grasshopper in 14 steps, in a nearly identical fashion to his Generation 1 toy. His accessories include an "Electrothermic Blast Tube” gun, compatible with Fire Blast effect pieces, which can mount under his beast mode, and two Energon blades. The blades can either mount on the wings or, in an undocumented feature, combine together and peg into a normally unused 5 mm hole on the bottom of the robot mode’s back for beast mode, forming an approximation of a real-life grasshopper’s abdomen.
Similar to Kingdom’s more realistic beast modes, the inner surfaces of Kickback’s wings have an organic texture.
While his transparent yellow chest panel may look like it can open to reveal a compartment like his Generation 1 and Titans Return predecessors, and has a hinge, but the panel is sealed shut by tabs that are permanently locked in place due to how the torso is assembled. If one does break it open, however, it reveals a whole lot of Generation 1 toy-accurate… nothing.
