    Just got him. like him. a lot. busted my camera, so no pics (sorry)
    As advertised, he's mini.

    Front wheels are loose, back wheels are too tight to move on their own.

    His head's on a ball joint... inside a small cavity... can barely fit my pinky in there...
    For the love of all that is holy, don't mess with it!
    Now his head's at an angle inside a small cavity, and I can't get in there to straighten it out. Gonna have to invest in a pair of soft tweezers now...

    Haven't figured out how or if I can store the guns in vehicle mode.

    ...still like him

    I haven't found a way to store the guns either lol. Oh well, I guess I'll leave them in bot mode for now.

    I'm hoping for a 3rd party add-on, or someone to make on shapeways, for Igear Rager's altmode.

    It would be a sort of "adapter/riser" that could connect somehow to the back of Rager's altmode, and allow one (or more) of Prime's trailers to hitch onto, and be able to be towed by un-Huffer. I figure that it could also have a couple of slots on this add-on so that his two pistol's can be attached, and stored in altmode.

    I'm mostly visualizing it being compatible for MakeToy's G2 trailer. Even though it was Prime's original trailer that Huffer pulled, I think that MakeToy's triler is probably closest in size to making it happen. Obviously MP-04's would be out of the question. Not sure if FP's trailer would work as I don't own one. Any other trailers that could work?

    The only thing is, how to make it functional for Rager in botmode. Maybe make it a bigass gun that the two smaller ones can attach to, or something?

    the easy way would have been to to mold a peg or slot inside the cab to clip the guns onto.
    plenty of space in there.

    as for your idea Tfao, turn it around; have the adapter port be an add-on for Prime's trailer instead of an add-on for Rager. Plenty of room to hide that adapter on the trailer.

    That is not a bad idea at all TP. I just had visions of the trailer adapter sitting on the back of Rager's altmode, with the two pistols pegged onto it, looking sort of like a turret or something. Just so you would have somewhere to put those two guns in altmode.

    Both of these little guys arrived in the mail yesterday, and I have to say that they are pretty friggin' awesome! These (along with the Junkheap and Sky Shadow Generations releases) have given me a little bit of a renewed interest in the Classics line in what has been a bit of a lull of late. Not sure if I'll spring for the Not-Cosmos when it goes up for pre-order since we already have a decent legends class Cosmos from Hasbro, but i-gear has really put some quality offerings out there as of late.

    Yeah, I got mine the other day.

    It's been a LONG time since I bought a transforming robot with ZERO buyer's remorse.

    The price was amazing.
    The product was better than expected. All those ball-joints are tight so far.

    Now, I hope iGear can get a move on with the dozen or so projects they've teased.
