He's pretty much the zealous leader of the inquisitors of deceptions known as the Deception Justice Division or DJD , a group of deceptions hand picked and trained by Megatron to literary kill any Deceptions that have any notion of deserting the Deceptions cause in any horrific way possible and he has the ability to literary talk his opponents to death also he likes to be very poetic and thinks of himself as a eloquent and calm headed leader as he plays music that matches his poetic side and also has had violent side as well .
I'm an old man so I've mainly stuck with G1 inspired studio and legacy collection. But tarn is so sweet I might have to think about expanding into the wider unknown transformerverse

Here's a few examples of other IDW comic inspired figures... Generations/Thrilling 30: Blurr, Drift (not sure which, but one is a repaint of the other), Springer, Sandstorm, Brainstorm, Windblade, Hoist, Trailbreaker (known at this point in time as "Trailcutter"), Orion Pax, the Fall of Cybertron Seeker mold (repurposed as body variants for Starscream, Thundercracker, Skywarp, and even Acidstorm, who never got a toy as he wasn't in the FoC videogame), G2 Dreadwing, G2 ATB Megatron, Blitzwing (the toy is a nod to Animated with the face change gimmick, but the comic completely ignored that), and there's two Bumblebees; one got a repaint as Goldbug but was called "Goldfire Bumblebee", this mold was also retooled into Nightbeat...and the other was a Legends class figure based on the design of the War for Cybertron videogame figure Combiner Wars: Megatron, Ultra Magnus, Starscream, Thundercracker, and Skywarp (retools of Thrilling 30 Jetfire; this was ANOTHER body variant for the Seekers, but not sure if Jetfire used his version in the comics)

I already have the MMC Tarn, which is an amazing figure in and of itself. But I'm probably still picking this up. I want them to do other IDW characters. The rest of the DJD obviously, but also designs like Windblade, IDW Prowl, IDW Megatron, Nova Prime, and so on.

Tarn is one of my favorite transformers and I got this character. He was so fun to handle.
This is absolutely stunning! If I were to pick some nitpick, they would be, as you said, that they could have found a way to fold the fists away, maybe by making a cavity in the part of the forearm that get covered by the panel that rotates, and that it would have been nice if the kneeguards could have folded down to better cover the back of the tank. But, once again, these are nitpicks, I love this figure! And even if you posed him shooting at Optimus, I'd rather pose him shooting at Starscream. I mean... how is it that he never went after the dude who tries to backstab Megatron on a daily basis? I'm pretty sure that Megs keeps his treads on his back just to pad it from Strascream!
I will DEFINITELY be picking up Tarn once he releases. I'd say he's up there with the Kingdom Cyclonus mold as one of the most stream-lined, tightly compact, and overall badass-looking voyagers out there.
The megatron would look amazing. This figure is a beast, so it should be no surprise if they start doing high quality transformers.

This is a really awesome looking figure. It would be cool if Hasbro and Takara/Tomy made all of the members of the DJD, but the only problem I see with that are their alt modes; those being torture devices. Some parents might complain saying that those aren't exactly "kid friendly." But I'm sure Hasbro and Takara/Tomy could find a way to make the DJD with some new forms if that were the case. If you're going to make Tarn, you have to make the other members as well.
@ToaKoran

I imagine they’ll design the other members with their comic modes in mind, but as they design the figure they’ll slap some “vehicle modes” together for them that will actually be on the boxes while their real modes will be hidden for fans to figure out.
@BuzzsawtheHedgehog
Жыл бұрын
@@ToaKoran That definitely would be the easy way to go. I mean, Tarn went unscathed because of his tank mode. Making the rest of the DJD into different vehicles would be very similar to Hasbro making Megatron into a tank since G2 due to his original toy’s alt mode having a lot of controversy to it; that being a Walther P-38 pistol.
Every once in a while they put out a mainline figure that seems like it's from another, better timeline. SS Hot Rod, Siege Jetfire, Earthrise Skylynx, and now this Tarn. If only this was more the norm. Even HasLab Victory Saber had some hollowness while this guy is so damn solid. And clean. And articulated.

Thanks so much mate!
Excellent review! Thank you! I am VERY much looking forward to this guy, because he looks every bit as good as the recent Cyclonus mould, and would love to see the full DJD released eventually. But even more than that, I've love to get the last two holdouts of the SCAVENGERS! -- Fulcrum and Nickel. (Although I wouldn't mind an IDW-style Grimlock that isn't compromised by combiner gimmicks or G1 "accuracy.")
Lol I love how you make the simplest transformations Hasbro spits out seem difficult and more complex than they really are. I commend you for that wholeheartedly. You are a great fan and spokesperson for Hasbro and they need to hire you quickly. Your enthusiasm and energy really makes me want to get the figures even more. I’m really looking forward to this one, even though it should have been leader class or bigger.
Ummmm, that might be the best looking voyager I have seen since T30's Springer (oddly enough also an IDW design). RIP to all the other figures in this wave though, as we can see where the bulk of the allocated money went.
Just got this guy and I love him. Didn't even think about putting him on the throne that came with Coronation Starscream, that's ingenious.

One of my personal perfect figures. Amazing posability, and looks so badass. I love him.
I haven’t read the comics very much but in 2013 I started playing transformers legends and that’s when I was introduced to Tarn and I always thought he was super nasty and like you said he looks perfect. I cannot find any flaws with this guy!!!! Must have!!!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 great review as ALWAYS brother. 🔥
Maybe the reason why he has no wheels is that when you drag him across the ground he makes a screeching sound which works perfectly because his thing is sound.
Just got mine yesterday after preordering! Absolutely love it! Never thought I’d be able to afford a Tarn figure, so this is a dream come true.
I just got him! He just arrived from Amazon. HE'S AWESOME! I think one of my favorite Transformers ever. He just looks so sick.
This guy is so cool. It’s strange they didn’t make any figures of this up until now.
when i see Tarn he reminds me of a badass assassin transformer.
He is a very good character. I would give him a perfect 10 if he wasn’t a bit thin to the side if they Beefed him up, he would’ve been better so I give him a 9.5.
EXCELLENT!!!! Absolutely EXCELLENT! NO hollow sections. Great design. Great weapons. Superb engineering. I said NO MORE transformers, I'm going to break the rule for Tarn.

Don't know a thing about Tarn, but the biggest selling point here is the solid/articulated bot mode as the tank mode feels more or less another space tank and there have been so many in the past. Really like the color scheme, and novelty of this guy literally wearing a Decepticon symbol for a face. Also great to see more bulk, and less hollow/flimsy plastic on these more recent figures.

It's sort of hilarious that the greatest voyagers so far (~since WfC) are characters which started as comic book characters :D. Just like in case of Jhiaxus, I'm a bit concerned about this clear plastic in chest area.
You just said it: an almost perfect figure except for the molded unmovable mini-wheels beneath the thread… We came to acept this practice in flying vehicles for many aesthetic/economical reasons whatsoever (I have a generations deluxe sky shadow with the moving wheel gimmick… I like it, but I don’t mind the kingdom voyager cyclonus does not have it… however, in tanks, for some reason this does not feel right even if the figure is used mostly for display, wonder if such a tiny aspect now could raise the type to leader class…) oh well… I still want it (just will have to do a little micro-lifting for the stop motion sessions instead of dragging it)… ❤
I just got mine. The figure is so versatile. The cannon barrels can also form a huge staff if you connect them to both ends on one hand.
I just got him today and Primus, his arms are so freaking hard to transform into tank treads!
Gotta say for a first attempt (pretty crazy that this is Hasbro’s first Tarn figure) Hasbro really fucking blew it out of the water. This thing legit looks like a third party figure. And it’s crazy how there are zero hollow spots on it. Like you said, whatever Hasbro needs to keep smoking.
He just looks so cool, can't wait to get him next year
