    Yeah, these are great thank you! A couple questions, I know that it's 3D printed, have you seen any breakages or anything? Also, are there ways to extend and collapse his neck so that his head doesn't stick out too much

    Brawl was available on Target's website so I ordered him. Apparently the last one. I don't think it was sold by someone else. It was $29.99 with free shipping.

    And I just ordered the last SS 51 Soundwave from Hasbro's Ebay store. Got to love the free shipping on items $14.99 or more!

    Just saw the review for MPM Ratchet...not liking what I’m seeing so far. I was extremely hyped for him, but just doesn’t look that good yet. Paint is severely lacking, the shoulders and up look rough, idk what that cage is on the top and why it’s there but it doesn’t look good. He needs some more silver paint too, he seems way too neon yellow. Also the head being right at the front of the vehicle? I know that’s where it ends up but it just doesn’t seem masterpiece-like to have it so glaringly visible.

    The head is the most frustrating thing for me too. You can clearly see a place for it to fold into between the arms.

    For them to break up the box in true MPM style, they'd have to disperse throughout the back and inner torso, and Hastak is way too lazy for that.

    I think that just having it fold on the back like the SS does would've just been too lazy for an MPM toy. But I do wish that they would've found a way to hide the lights on his lower back.

    IMG_20200916_120321_984.jpg I really like this little dude...such a good deskbot. I am kinda sad that weve reached the end of the wave. Hope we get the reveals next week.

    Same, my fix for movie figures needs to be satiated. Now that I’ve got the Devastator components... don’t know what else to look forward to movie-wise :(

    Mine broke but only because I dropped it three times in the course of 10mins (still mad about that) but it’s only a chip. The neck plate sucks ass though and broke after my first transformation. But the newest wave has the cast neck plate that’s better designed so you won’t have to worry. And the neck has the head sit at the perfect spot, it just looks like it’s floating cause it’s a bit thin. Another thing that’s been corrected in the newer wave. I really don’t have anything bad to say about the head except it’s non-transformable. If they could have made the head itself transform to fit inside the truck mode that would have been dope but it’s a lot of effort I guess.
    They’re basically scalpers so I’m not surprised.

    Nice! I never realized Topspin has an Autobot logo on his forehead. Does the figure itself have one?

    I'm jonesing so hard for the next reveals, Blitzwing has me dying for more repaints to fill out a seeker squad. I'm also really wanting a re-release of Leader optimus but with clear windshields this time. I'd also love to see more bumblebees from ROTF, and AoE, when the newest camaro mold hit I thought we'd be getting all kinds of reissues with dif head and paint schemes, but it's dried right up.

    Tops I need by next year

    AoE bumblebee black camero redo
    ROTF twins
    More Prime
    Fallen
    Blitzwing repaints

    What is everyone else wanting to see done or re-released?

    Too funny I just picked these two up today too! Can't wait to finish my wreckers. Speaking of, Does anyone know how to get Lead foot in Canada?

    Haha I just realised it too! The actual figure has that piece but the Autobot logo isn't molded in. It's just a silver rectangular plate. It would've been nice to have the Autobot logo on the figure but it would've had to been tiny!

    Ehh..... consider that SS Offroad Bumblebee did have a small Autobot emblem painted on the figure's forehead (And that figure is even smaller than SS Topspin, I don't think it would be impossible for an emblem at such a small size to be on SS Topspin's forehead.

    We should've seen more of these two at it in the the movie.
