Hasbro- Transformers- Power Core Combiners: Heavytread.




A nice bulky, stocky figure that has a fantastic transformation and great tank mode. There was very little media accompanying the Power Core Combiner releases so it is difficult to say how Heavytread fits into the Autobots, but given his stature and overall look, I would think he would fit the Bulkhead type role on the team. As an aside, I unless I did more googling, I would not be able to tell you who from the Powercore Combiners are Autobots or Decepticons as I don’t even think they have symbols, weird.

Heavytread comes with a Mincon named Groundspike who turns into a… blade for the tank? And a Claw as a melee weapon and is rather unique given that most of the Minicons are guns. I actually kind of like it as it reminds me of the Transformers Armada game where minicons had all sorts of fun uses. I may just need to revisit that game as I actually quite enjoyed it.

Pros: Cool bulky figure with two nice modes and unique Minicon partner.

Cons: The tank barrel does not move up and down.
