Review: #871
Name: Hashtag
Brand: Transformers
Allegiance: Terran
Line: Earthspark
Year of Release: 2025
Size Class: Deluxe (Wave 7)
Mold Status: new
VEHICLE MODE:
Hashtag transforms into a purple pick up truck, and this is a decent vehicle mode, all the windows and the headlights are painted.
The back is pretty decent as well, apart from the robot feet sticking out. Even the taillights are painted, which is rare in this size class...
The robot weapon can peg onto the back.
The sculpted detailing is quite good, and the numerous paint applications continue with the grill, the bumpers and even the hubcaps.
While the exposed bed has robot parts, this is still a great vehicle mode.
TRANSFORMATION:
It's not too hard to transform her into robot mode. The back splits and then the sides fold out to form the legs, so that she has slim limbs. The sides are the arms, and then the hood folds onto the roof.
ROBOT MODE:
Hashtag's robot mode is pretty decent too, she has a slim profile, giving her an athletic look.
There is some kibble, being the roof and the hood, but it sits very close to the torso and doesn't get in the way.
The head sculpt is nice, and her massive visor is painted.
The articulation is good, with joints for her head, shoulders, elbows, waist, hips, knees and ankles.
She comes with two weapons, a crossbow type weapon, and a small pistol.
She has hold both in her arms, although the pistol is a tiny bit too small.
She carries a faux windshield as her torso, which isn't unexpected for this toyline and this size class.
Both weapons can store away in robot mode, the pistol in the same place as vehicle mode, and the crossbow weapon on her back.
Hashtag can feel a little bit cheap in the hand, there's just something about the hollower limbs, and the type of plastic used, it feels "squishier".
Otherwise, this is a good robot mode, with a unique design.
OVERALL:
Hashtag is a solid figure in the Earthspark line. It's not to the quality of the Generations mainline, but it's still very decent, and the best representation we'll get for the character in the Earthspark line. Even if you don't want the show, this is still a nice figure.
