    This looks like the best Studio Series figure so far.

    Viewing it's profile in motorcycle mode under the seat is weak looking, wish that gap could have been filled in. But the rest is nice. It's make me happy to get a Generations release as Cykill fitting the wheels on the shoulders.

    I also wish that they would commit to one line for toon looks and a different line for more detailed figures, but for the opposite reason. I prefer the more detailed greebled look.

    This is amazing. I dub thee, the Wreck-Hog. And it is, indeed, glorious.

    So like, how prevalent is the whole "the hole in my chin for my goatee is not the same shape as the goatee, which means I got a hole in my face"?

    The one I got has this, another one I saw in an EB has this - is this like, Kingdom Galvatron's "fixed/correct" shoulders level of QA?

    I've seen images online of copies that look OK - were they fixed/repaired?

    Pic to show the hole:

    Someone needs to have a Lobo figure ride on top of this. Paging the DC figures thread...

    Yeah it's very impressive. Almost like Masterpiece-lite. I thought about swapping out KFC version for a split second but I don't think it's tall enough. That said, if they'd have started releasing this shit 10 years ago then there'd probably be no third party market at all right now.

    Defo good for those that don't wanna spend the big bucks.

    Are the handlebars rubber or hard plastic?

    Hard rubber, actually. They aren't solid, but not flimsy.

    Mine had the weird gap above the goatee too and I just shoved the rubber hair part up into the space and it kinda thooped into place. I think its just something that doesn't get pushed all the way in on every copy during assembly

    I'll keep it as a Junkion (especially due to the broken handlebar), along with the PoTP one.
