That's an interesting hybrid insignia.

 

This is easily my favorite Legends repaint, and how do you not having him using his little self as a gun or a claw weapon? It's made for photo galleries!  

With that pile of loot all he needs is a partnership with Swindle and it's easy energon!

 

But none of the Dinobots are called Reflector..

... Oh, wait...

 

It's Skrapnel with a different head. Did Hasbro write this review? You can still get the Fansproject Armored Battalion from tfsource, which would be a way better purchase for a faux-Chop Shop.

 

I prefer his RID2 version, but this is cool too.

 

Man taxes might be for these.

At least he is a character in y head so I won't have to get 3 of them.

 

Oh, that's in there. A bit hard to pose him like that, but it's all in there.

I can say, hand on heart, that the review is 100% Fury. I just really, really enjoy this toy. I'm not shy about saying I enjoy something, and I certainly enjoyed this one.

Yep, that's the Unicron.com one! Glad you guys like that last little gag image!

 

Are the horns fixed on this one or still floppy not a deal breaker ot anything.

 

That mold is also a repainted Shrapnel with a new head (And still has Shrapnel's mandibles just like this one), and costs more then 3X as much...

 

I found both are fine, no looseness on Chop Shop or Skrapnel.

 

Hmm lets see.. Approximately 10 dollars or your regional price for a nice homage figure or 130 (at last I saw) for a whole set with some you might not want. Seems like easy math to me.

That being said.. Like I said in a previous thread the last finishing touch this figure really needed was that cylinder on the of mandibles to be replaced with more a flat and ragged tooth like end like the real Chop Shop.. That one bit of effort would have put this over the top.

 

That's why I called him a "faux-Chop Shop", who (IMO) looks at least 3x as good. The other two guys he comes with are/look awesome too. But different strokes for different folks, of course.

 

Ahh yes now I see. When it comes to using miniShop as a targetmaster, I just close it up point the feet out, call it a double barreled shotgun.. bug. Not the greatest, but it gets the job done. In bug modes you can have little peg in the port and have miniShop ride Chopshop.

 

Always wanted a beet gugal, wasn't sure if black or blue. I suppose the art on the box looked better. Maybe I'll make a black chop shop if I can find another one..

With a little blue tac chop shop can hold his g1 gun. I love how u can paint into the fissures. But yes hoping maybe in a shape ways add on for the horns
