    I found it hard to start watching the review with that child-like voice. I've been very spoiled by Peaugh's reviews. They are pretty much the only ones I can watch now.

    I was wondering how the bot mode would be when the car mode first showed, to me it is very G1esque, kind of how the ROTF Beachcomber skirts the line between the new movie and G1.

    The normal hands obviously help, but it is just the style of the rest of the body as well.

    I know that Hot Rod custom someone will do is comming up fast.

    I think if I do get him, it'll be because of the sweet ass alt mode.

    That's a good looking figure! Makes me want to rethink my dislike for the Scout class figures and start picking some of them up. I'll have to repaint it, though. That car mode looks too good to be wasted with that dull red paint job.

    Great review. :thumb 

    Hubcap looks like he'll most likely be one of my favorite Scouts.

    I love him. I've got a sizeable collection of scouts so far (CURSE YOU VANGELUS!) and this guy is on my list now.
    On a side note I really get a wheelie vibe out of him. Was he that wheelie redesign i heard about at one time.

    Cool figure is cool.

    I have to say I've actually really been digging all the car scouts. Even DeadendDetour with his crazy concept future car mode. I hope they make more car scouts.

    As much as I don't like scouts, this is one pretty sweet looking little guy.

    Cool review - I really dislike the aneorexic arms and oversized arm panel aesthetic. But otherwise cool toy.
