    Would anyone explain how accurate this alt-mode is to the real life thing? Thanks in advance.

    Hopefully Grump shows up on TCP soon. Just need him and Huff and I'll finally have completed the S1 Ark Crew

    It’s roughly $65(I think) on sites like ShowZ, so you can’t really go wrong with that

    Yeah, he’s the only game in town for this character and he was getting pretty expensive back when he wasn’t available. I’d say if you want an MP Gears, this is the only one in the horizon.

    Gears’s alt mode wasn’t a real truck. There is no “real-life thing” for accuracy comparison.

    Paid off my preorder at TF-direct earlier this week. No shipping notification yet.
    First time ordering from them.
    Did I make a bad choice?

    I haven’t heard a lot of good things about them lately but I’m sure they can handle it!

    Yeah I’m sure they’ll get around to it. Just wondering if anyone else had any experiences to go on, that I might know when to expect to see it ship

    So close!! I need Huffer, Cliffjumper, Jazz, Mirage, Trailbreaker, and Slag. Fortunately FT covers all those options.

    After I get this guy. I think I'm only missing Jetfire to complete the entire season 1 cast (Autobots and Decepticons).
