Don't like the proportions, so the Hasbro versions win. Not that they're perfect, but they're a damn sight cheaper if I decide to pick them up.

These don't look bad, but nothing's screaming "buy me" about them to me.

Interesting figures.

10,000,000,000 times better than that crap Hasbro's going to try to pawn off on us.

Its the freaking year of the Wreckers around here. And I'm so glad that a 3P co decided on a non Devestator, Megatron, etc. character for a change. Ok so with me already having a Roadbuster (Universe 2 w/nb upgrade) & Whirl (RotF w/hr upgrade) and now these I think I'll pass on the Xaaron/Ruination Wreckers set by Hasbro. And continue using my RID Megatron as Impactor. Wonder what the price will be like and if there are other Wreckers planned or even enemies of the Wreckers (Ultracons, Squadron X)?

Getting Hasbro wreckers.....easy pass on the 3rd party.

Grimlock_13 · 07-28-2012, 02:08 PM

Hooray! If the toys turn out that good I'll be even more excited...and I can pass on the awful Hasbro versions! Thank god for third party.

Hasbro's Ruination set killed my interest in Hasbro's Ruination set. These look fantastic! Now just looking for a new whirl and roadbuster and the classics wreckers will be in business.

EDIT:
Demolition crue = wreckers. Could these guys be the first in a whole line of wrecker inspired 3P releases?

These are fantastic! Good updates to the G1 design, and I can tell who it is without having to look at the package it came in (unlike the shitty Hasbro bruticus repaints.)
