I think some of the hosts greatly underestimate the Puzzler combiner. Let’s look at some of the positives about it, and tell me how many Transformers and third party combiners can claim half these:
1. All the members of the Puzzler combiner are in perfect SCALE in alternate mode.
2. Rubber tires on all members.
3. Diecast parts on all members.
4. Has no kibble parts. Everything is included for robot, car and combined mode.
5. Chrome on all members.
Also, some cool bits or trivia:
*The episode of Challenge of the GoBots where Puzzler appeared aired a month BEFORE the episode where Menasor first appeared. Transformers copied them!
*The box set for Puzzler featured biographies for the individual members, something rare for GoBots.
*Puzzler only appeared once in the original Challenge of the GoBots fiction, but would return several times in the recent Fun Publications online stories, where Cy-Kill rebuild them and granted them life using sparks he stole while in the Transformers universe! Yep, the Puzzler members are actually OFFICIAL Cybertronian Transformers now!
You can read more about Puzzler on his Wiki page – http://en.wikialpha.org/wiki/Puzzler_(GoBots)
Holy Shit!
I never thought I would live to see the day where Mathew Fucking Ignash would stick up for Darryl.
Hell has officially frozen over.
Fucking perfect. 5 fucking stars. Fucking fantastic. But that fucking awesome Iron factory’s Bruticus is gonna be fucking masterpiece-priced expensive.
In spite of go-bots, that Puzzler seems interesting.
Now to wash my mouth with soap.
