This looks very cool, it screams Mass Effect to me. If they do a Reaper recolor or even an orange to be like the squid in the Transformers movie I'd buy it. I don't get the cube mode. Is there a lore thing behind it?
I have zero clue why it never registered with me because it is almost totally a ME Reaper, you're right. I think I hadn't considered it because the paleontology nerd in me remembers the first release of this mold being named an actual ancient cephalopod and I geeked about that, haha. As far as lore, there is some vague and amusingly translated lore on the collector cards that come with all the figures but as far as why they all cube themselves, I'm not sure apart from that just being part of the original gimmick with BeastBOX. 🤷♂️
Downspiral is actually modeled after a Cameroceras, a prehistoric cephalopod that had a long, cone-shaped shell that was as long as 25-30 feet in length! Still technically right with the squid description
if i remember right, hes suppsoed to combine with the rocket and moon rover, and its suppsoed to be like a "weapon" (you split the top to give it "blades")

Downspiral goes great as a Waruder for under the sea skirmishes with tactical mover Argo. Peace and bliss thanks for the review
Heck yeah! Thank you as always good sir 👍

It reminds me of the robotic squid that Hotrod rescued Kup from on Quintessa in TFTM.
Heck yeah it does! Thanks
Yes exactly! That would be just awesome if they did a repaint that looked like the 86 movie squid!
