Mine shipped yesterday, very excited to get him.

 

I'm really glad this is finally out because we've been overdue for a weaponized version of Roadbuster for years but the chest and head on this one are way too off for me to be willing to put money down on this.

I'm hoping another company can come along and give us something new from the ground up.

 

Got this guy yesterday, and he continues the Dream Factory trend of sturdy designs, admirable decos and complicated transformations.

The head is much better in person than it is in photos, but only has a horizontal swivel joint - I almost snapped the neck attempting to make him look upwards. His knees have a similarly confusing lack of motion (no horizontal swivel), leaving most of the horizontal articulation to the ball joints in his hips and ankles. His instructions tell you to extend the accordion joints in his knees for robot mode, but this makes him way too tall in my opinion.

His vehicle mode looks exceptionally smart, easily the best of the three Wreckers, and his robot mode is much more in line with the proportions he has in the film. Definite recommendation for fans of the character and film.

 

Got them all three at once and they're bloody lovely figures.

 

Got him too and is awesome. The only thing is that i can’t place the little piece that goes into his right arm weapon.
It simply won’t fit in

 

I'm a bit disappointed in his size, as he's smaller than I expected. Doesn't scale at all with MPM Bumblebee, Ironhide or Barricade sadly. Wish I had stuck with the Human Alliance versions.

 

from the beginning it was said that they would be deluxe scale

 

Meh, the store I bought it from said it was MPM scale, so that's on me for an impulse buy I suppose.

 

I'm beginning to regret not getting all these guys.

 

How is this guy compared to the Human Alliance figure?

 

The front cannon has two pieces. Make sure you get it all out of the front grill because the small inner piece allows it to peg into the arm cannon.

 

Hah they heard your idea! But it's sad the new original mold that actually got released has a totally wrong chest. I just got mine in hand and the head is one of my favorite head sculpts of all time. I wish we could get the first DF mold shown but with the head of the final release...

 

Sigh. I ordered these two months ago and they still haven't made it to the US. I will probably end up filing a paypal dispute in the next couple days if nothing changes. China shipping has been slower lately plus Chinese New year- but at 2 months something has gone wrong.

 

I got mine from a Chinese seller and it took a week. 2-3 days to get here from China, then 4 more days in the US. It took longer to get 25 miles to me once it hit the US than the leg from China.

 

Does anybody have tips for getting that stomach vent piece out from the back of the gun to plug to his stomach? I can't pick it out! Nowhere to get a fingernail under it.

 

I've had packages from China take a week to even two and a half months to get to me before, all outside of the holiday time frame too. Usually, the longest hold up, as of the last couple of years, has been once it hits America. According to the tracking data of one package, it sat in customs for nearly a month and a half after only taking five days to get here from China.

 

Wow then I really lucked out. I also find that certain sellers always get it to me really quickly even with the market delays.

 

I had the same problem when I first got the figure. I managed to pry it out with a flathead screwdriver from a certain angle if I remember correctly.
