The colours work and the helicopter is well formed. While the loose rotor blades are quite annoying, everything else about this chopper mode is great.
There's a red button on the winch itself which retracts the cord, and it spring back quickly - even with Sprocket's weight to contend with. The hook on his winch can be pulled out, it's on a cord maybe 8cm long, and the hook and cord are strong enough to hold light items - Evac is currently rescuing Sprocket, who is hanging off the edge of the desk. Considering that we don't get spare missiles (we never seem to anymore, mind you), this is a good thing. The missiles will fire a couple of feet, which is far enough to make them fun without you having to locate them across the room afterwards. Pushing the Planet key all the way in will release the engines, which swing forward as missile launchers, and reveals the red triggers. The blades detach very easily and the entire rotor can also detach - I can see the rotors missing on most second hand Evacs in a few years time. This works well and looks really cool, so long as you have all four blades. There's a red plunging button on the port side just below the main rotor, pressing it in repeatedly (it's spring loaded and will automatically spring out) will cause the rotor to spin - as long as you keep plunging. The main rotor spins freely and while the tail rotors are a little hard to access, they also spin well. The wheels can all retract (well, the rear pair fold out to the sides), and he'll happily sit on his belly. While I suspect Evac is a mixture of several chopper models, there are enough seams, vents and such on this toy to sell the illusion of a real chopper model. The blue Planet Key (code: v49u) plugs into the back of the engine unit, and adds transparent blue and gold without ruining the overall effect, which is nice. With a bottlenose, aerodynamic shape and four moulded wheels underneath, Evac looks quite realistic, even if there are some kibbly connections underneath the engines (which are themselves missile launchers). There's a metallic blue winch unit on the starboard side with an Autobot symbol stamped on it and a dark blue hook, rounding out the rescue theme quite nicely.
The colours are pretty good here, and suit a rescue chopper. The windshield is a smoky plastic, which is actually blue but this is only apparent when you line it up with a light source shining through it. The main rotor has four blades while there are twin tri-blade stabiliser rotors encased in the tail. The are some red hints and some white paint on the body, notably the word "RESCUE" on the port side. Height: 8cm Length: 26cm Width: 6.5cm (propspan is 20cm)Ī yellow rescue chopper with a white tail, extensive metallic blue on the roof and around the windshield and a dark blue rotor, dark blue wheels underneath and some dark blue here are there. Alternate Mode: Eurocopter Dauphin Rescue Helicopter (thanks to Fit For Natalie for the model)
