    It's a shockingly great figure. I hope you love it as much as I do

    That is sad news. Is there just not enough demand for a WW line? Spark Toys managed 2 releases and Civil Warrior only 1 :(

    Thats a shame. This is one of my most favorite designs. Would have loved to have seen others.

    Awesome, hope you enjoy the figure! It's pretty great, though be careful of his antennae when transforming (BSF broke mine when he reviewed it lol), and also watch out for paint chipping during transformation. The only real complaint I have are his disproportional hands, I think they tried to give extensive articulation but the execution is poor compared to something like TFC ST-01's fully articulated hands.

    It's missing the robot head. Went and got a pic and sent it to store where I bought the figure. :( 

    EDIT: Also missing knuckle covers on both hands. And now the knee pads fell off. Ugh!

    Oof, that's rough. Pretty crazy oversight on their part... hope you can get the replacement piece quickly!

    Hope so too.

    I put it back in truck mode. Putting the hands back in was a workout by itself! LOL

    Indeed, that's the only real difficult part of the transformation. Paik had a good method that helped me out:

    my crazy self is eventually planning on painting grant into SG Optimus so he fits in my collection better, plus he’s such a sick design. I like Optus better but there’s no arguing they’re both equally impressive

    They both give me Armada Prime vibes, so they’re very good looking to me. I’d have gotten Grant if his trailer wasn’t a jetpack but a base instead.
