    "The RUNG figure features story-inspired battle-worn deco"

    Very in character.

    Sweet, new cassettes.  Now we will know whether Ravage or Laserbeak is the one off in quality.

    I know, right? I guess the reason for Rumble's wide hips and short thighs is so that he could have mushroom-pegged swivel joint hips, but he could've had ball-jointed hips.

    See the thing about the new cassettes is that the physical toys are small enough that imo any oddities are very much passable.
    Plus chunky Rumble is good actually and I'll die on this hill

    So how we will get the Purple Frenzy/Rumble?
    I feel a 3rd party company will make a TRUE PILEDRIVER for Frenzy/Rumble

    My thoughts exactly. Those pegs on the ends of his fists are begging for pile driver parts. Also effect parts. I don't think his chunkiness will be as bad in person. It's easy to forget how small these guys are and seeing large pictures highlights the oddities far more than the real thing.

    Yeah.. it's.. in G1 Rumble/Frenzy are boasting having huge dicks no matter how small bot they are.. In Masterpiece form, they're given with a Pile Driver accessories. Even in Titan Returns line they're given an extended flipping parts to emulate the Pile Drivers

    But in this Siege WFC line, they didn't bother to make a workaround to give Rumble / Frenzy a Pile Driver attachment? And just gave them Puny Small Knuckle Dicks?

    Ratbat is my favorite, I wish Rumble had articulation at the arms, plus I think we can expect a Frenzy and a Buzzsaw.
    Rung... what did they do to you?

    I get that the tapes are limited by size constraints but yikes! I'm enjoying the Hell out of Siege, but I'll stick with PE Rumble and Frenzy. Haven't bought any of the minicons and I don't see that changing, but really looking forward to Apeface and Astrotrain.

    that\'s frenzy no matter what they call it, he\'s on steroids, the other ones don\'t look too bad, kind of weak for the siege line, considering there\'s been some great toys for this line

    It’s a micromaster. Why are you disappointed he doesn’t come with piledrivers? Micromasters don’t come with accessories. They are limited to their size class in parts and articulation.

    Having a blast effect peg to simulate something like a piledriver is good emotion enough for what they are

    It would be funny if his head would come off. That's story inspired battle-worn deco

    Rung should have come with Swerve a few years back, with a "my first blaster" and a damaged head to swap out. I would have bought it. I bought swerve anyway but still.

    Awwww look at the WIDE BOI Frenzy with his tiny stubby arms. :D 

    On the other hand Ratbat is by far the most convincing looking cassette-con out of the 4. Looks waaay better than Laserbeak. That's gonna look great on Soundwave's arm.

    I love that Rung, however, I feel Hasbro could have made a deluxe version of that figure, and then re-tooled it into a pretty decent Vos.
