I never read the IDW Transformers comics, but I’m damn well aware of how badass Tarn is. Such a cool villain. I was so happy that they made this figure, given how unique his design is. Unfortunately mine had a loose part of front pelvis armor, which didn’t fall off, but it rattled when posing the figure. This piece was also supposed to keep the hip joints sturdy, so mine has loose hips as a result. My only real issues with the figure itself is how the shoulder articulation is done (he can’t aim his double barrelled gun without looking awkward), and his profile is ridiculously flat. He’s supposed to be a big, hulking character, which makes me think that he should have been a Leader Class. Still, a fantastic figure with great sculpt, colors, and articulation. Also, apparently the 4-Pack Tarn is supposed to be based on his appearance in the Cyberverse cartoon, which is why he has those wacky rave colors. I haven’t watched the show, but I think he had blue eyes in it, as well as missing an arm. Multiple clones of him for some reason, too. By comparison, this figure of Tarn looks like the Joker got a hold of him or something. “Let’s put a smile on that face!”
Tarn honestly is such a a cool design and from what I know sounds like a cool villain. Hopefully he breaks more into mainstream TF media. That sucks your figure is like that. It really seems like a gamble for tarn on whether or not he'll be sturdy. Also yeah he's flat as a pancake which I did notice seemed a little odd. I had no idea he appeared in cyber verse. I've only ever seen clips from it. But yeah the 4 pack figure definitely could've captured his design from the show better. The colors look really goofy
