(If you did toss in a chef hat and apron though, I’d buy it again in a blink). the Transformers II 1 Roadblock was teamed with the Baroness, Beachhead and a hapless Cobra Viper named Percy and sent to 1930's Chicago. ![]() We are definitively good here, exceptional even. Roadblock joined but found army menus and preparation techniques too appalling. He was working as a bouncer to earn money to attend the Escoffier School in France when an army recruiter convinced him that the army could train him to be a chef. If I could make a request though, to Hasbro…let’s call it a day on Roadblocks for a while. Roadblock's dream was to be a gourmet chef. Hasbro nailed the figure on all points and really gave us something special here. This Roadblock is my Roadblock though, and I’m very excited to finally have him in hand. If you are following Classified on any of the groups, boards, reddits, the amount of Roadblocks in this line has become the butt of a lot of jokes, and it’s not unwarranted. I love the helmet / helmet style, and the redesign of the face is just perfect. The included guns are really outstanding. So much so that I entrusted his creation to my wife’s able paint brush, and we made one here! She did an outstanding job, but in this figure, so did Hasbro. When Classified kicked off, and dropped one Roadblock, two Roadblocks, three Roadblocks, with each iteration, I was happy to have the figures, and the line expand, but man, this was the Roadblock I wanted. Perfect would have included a chef hat and apron! Just going to re-iterate that this is now the fourth Roadblock in the Classified series, and absolutely should have been the first! His sidearm is a monster, and it’s perfect for RB.The helmet is outstanding for Roadblock, and I love the included straps.Web gear is classic perfect, and I love that the belt has a weight belt / lifting belt look to it on the back, to make it make sense with the massive cannon he totes around.Roadblock came into our childhoods wearing a camo tank top and muted orange pants, and Hasbro gives us exactly that in grand fashion! I’m on and on about the gun, but it fits perfectly in hand and leads to some awesome posing!.Gun comes with an awesome removable ammo drum!.The Gatling Gun has a rotating barrel….and now I kinda need to find two more Roadblocks so I can pull them from him and upgrade my custom Rock and Roll!.The Good | The Bad | The Rest | Availability | Photos This Roadblock is freaking outstanding! And per my wife… a total rip off of the one she customized for me (she said with a smile and laugh). Touch up the Cobra Island Roadblock, relabel the box as Heavy Duty, and Joe collectors have what they want in spades, MORE CHARACTERS!! But I digress, let’s stay on topic. If anything, the …running change Roadblock, needs this head, gun, and to lose the arm ink, and then you have two perfect Roadblocks. My complaint with this figure…is why is he the FOURTH Roadblock!!! This should have been V1, and really didn’t need the other 3. From the guns, to the facial hair, to the not tattoo, to the helmet, it’s all there. The team at Hasbro has absolutely nailed Roadblock in all of his throwback glory. This is one of my favorite Classified figures bar none. Joe reviews, including the rest of this wave, here!
