This.
None of the Walmarts in Colorado Springs or Monument have them (yeah I checked all 10 or so of them today, no dice).

#93 | | Your opinion is wrong! Join Date: Aug 2003 Posts: 4,970 Location: Tampa, FL | I wasn't aware Crankcase was a homage to a micromaster. I may pick him up now to put him with my Universe Galvatron faction of Decepticons. So far I plan to have Galvatron, Bugbite, Fracture, Dropshot, and now Crankcase as a third faction of Transformers in my classics display.
Thanks to Maximo Prime for the avatar!
Thanks to Poho for the sig!

But they are pretty small, so it's almost a micromaster. lol Newest TF Addition: FORTRESS MAXIMUS!!! |

Now I haven't checked my Cyb Hot shot yet, but I would be curious to see if anyone else that's gotten Breakaway has noticed on theirs that the arms don't seem to want to peg into the legs all that well? Mine also has problems with the shoulders connecting in car mode. CURE ME OF MY COMPLETIST WAYS  -Soon to be King of the Animated Road!

Neat little guy about the size of a G1 Minibot, but with spin-out guns on his shoulders, a lot like the Cybertron Red Alert mold.  Fosterlager's Big G1 and Botcon sale (with FREEBIES!)

Is it fixable? | The shoulders might be, it almost acts as if it doesn't want to fold up completely. There might be a tiny bit of extra plastic or something that needs to be filed down. As for the leg/arm connection, don't know.
FYI, KSA picked up Fracture for you at the Walmart today. CURE ME OF MY COMPLETIST WAYS  -Soon to be King of the Animated Road!
