    Had I known the bee and \"crankcase\" were gonna be released I would\'ve just waited for them since bee is actually accurate and \"crankcase\" is just crowbar with his movie accurate deco

    Im thinking about getting anothee Berserker and removing the red X on his chest to make a proper Crankcase. Then ill give this new dread a joint and call him Ziggy. He can hang with Berserker.

    ‘Cade and ‘Swipe look fantastic! I like how they gave us a DotM ‘Swipe since the OG DotM one wasn’t screen accurate at all by using the front for the chest. I’m still crossing my fingers for TLK ‘Cade (Jaeger).

    WW2 Bee is also a must for me. I’ve been wanting that particular Bee and thought it was a waste that he wasn’t included in the actual movie line.

    You mean they fixed the problem the original had with pieces spontaneously falling out? That'd be sweet.

    Also, are Sideswipe's arm blades separated for the bot mode? Interesting choice...

    Oh you are right. I thought it is separated weapons but it isnt... I think half side of the sword goes under the vehicle. Thanks for let me know.

    But I feel kind of worry because sword might be not detachable lol I really hope it is detachable. I dont want him to shoot gun with big blades out

    Crankcase needs a new surname:

    Elite Shelf Master Crankcase
    Buns of warmth Crankcase
    Victim of the Ugly Stick Crankcase
    Preserver of the Shelf Crankcase

    Using the original bot render for rusty bee is not convincing me that it’s worth a double dip. I guess good in hand pics to show just how much rust shows through on bot mode will be the next opportunity for us to tell. Good job Hasbro.

    Yeah they are the same size. I have Berserker and Crowbar next to each other on my desk.

    I guess this is gonna be crankbar’s head. Does anybody know if the balljoint on berserker and crankcase are the same size? I wonder if you could mod yourself a better crankcase from this.

    Honestly the deco on "Crankcase" looks great imo. I might get him and just call him Crowbar, since I never got wave 1 Crowbar.

    I agree with this, but only if the deco looks like the renders. It's an ugly figure if it looks like the displayed figure. Those pee color dreads are hideous, but I think mixing and matching SS-03 and "SS Crankcase" could make for a nice looking figure.

    I feel insulted by that poor excuse for a Crankcase, it's like saying "whatever, put some orange on a random bad guy, they'll buy it", I feel very lucky to have a Berserker now to use as a proper Crankcase 'cause you know they aren't gonna release another one for a long time...

    cut to them releasing a repainted Beserker as Hatchet...:crazy:

    The last of the Dreads trio is quite disappointing, given the average quality of the Studio Series.

    So is anyone else getting major Hearts of Steel vibes from WWII Bumblebee? Maybe it\'s just the hammer and rivets. I love that Sideswipe, he\'s a must-have for sure. The official renders really do him justice.

    Everyone is excited about Sideswipe\'s silver deco but i\'m also worried bc that\'s what they promised us for Studio Series Megatron and it did not happen

    I'm just amazed on how the new deluxe barricade looks.
