Rock Moon Alpha (War Planets) Review

Rock Moon Alpha
War Planets (Trendmasters)Well, it's a Moon. They're not much use without the accompanying Planet, being army builders with a bonus. That said, the Rock people are a favorite of mine, if only because they can reliably stand up.
This one is kind of fun thanks to the crazy design of the obligatory Giant Monster, or in this case, Huge Robot. The giant meat tenderizer is a nice touch. While the poor planning of War Planets is in full force here, what with the severely limited articulation and nearly-pointless giant claw (if you want entire celestial bodies physically ducking it out, it's not the worst), the soldiers are quite solid, and I can't argue with the industrial color scheme.
Everything else is pretty standard: a pile of connector rods in various sizes, two platforms, two bendy umbilicals, a ground vehicle and a missile launcher.
Overall, it's not the best the line has to offer, but as usual, if you have the Planet, the Moon is worth buying. If not, well, I'm just glad I paid less than $10.
