And it looks great...

 

And the spike is bending already  

 

Fair enough. It’s not as if the name is printed on the figure. You could call him ‘Susan’ if you wanted.

 

Oh, my gosh. Let's all came him Susan from now on!

 

It’s even a name that fits the Dinobot convention of starting with an ‘s’.    

 

Suits his character

 

Intentional or...  



Either way, can you do this?

 

Reminds me of when I used Destro and Oilslick.

 

This would be a credible backstory for explaining his rage and attitude.

♫ "My name is Sue! How do you do?
Now you gonna die!" ♫

 

The more I see of Wreck-Gar, the less I like him. The partsforming wheels are a total dealbreaker and the axe is so stunted it looks like pinwheel. Compare this to how beautifully well-integrated everything was on RTS Wreck-Gar's ingenious asymmetric transformation. Even the axe forms the tailpipe instead of just pegging onto the back. Hell, I wish he did look like that in the cartoon. I'm not a slave to G1 accuracy, sometimes a better design makes for a better toy. I'll stick with what I've got, thanks.

To me the highlight is Gnaw. I do appreciate the movie look, but I've never had any qualms with TR Gnaw and he scales well with current figures. Maybe if I can get SS86 Gnaw on discount....

 

judging by the Allicon I would say that’s unlikely. He’s a troop builder. Tons of people will be looking for multiples.

 

I like the RTS Junkions a lot too, but I'm still getting the new ones. That's the nice thing about Junkions, they don't all look the same.

Sharkticons on the other hand...Will I ever be able to get 3. I've got 1 Allicon and 1 Quintesson(so far), so it ain't looking good. The figure looks good but my odds of successfully troop building them do not.

 

Why not just preorder? I got 5 on order from Gamestop when they were doing a buy 3 get 2 free sale.

 

I probably will eventually. I try to save the preorders for the figures I can't live without. Gives me something to look for when I actually go to the store.

 

Fair. These days with distribution the way it is I typically just preorder everything I think I might want, there's not much to hunt when stores barely stock shelves  

 

So much this. The thrill of the hunt died a long time ago for me. Sure, sometimes you have to like the Walmart Netflix figures but distribution was getting worse even before last year's problems. If I even remotely thing I want something I will preoder through Amazon, Pulse, and BBTS to cover all bases. Brick and mortar just isn't the same as it was 10 years ago. RTS and Prime first edition was when it started to get bad and it has only gotten worse.

 

Chosen Prime and Pulse for me, Amazon has canceled 1 too many of my preorders, though oddly they've all been mainline stuff

 

Holy sh*t....now that's a sale!

 

Yea, might have been a glitch in their system, but over memorial day it was going on and applied to just about everything on their site, so you bet I took advantage of that haha

 

I can't blame you, as I would have as well.
