    Leave it to me to pick the low-hanging fruit... People love a team-up!

    Love this thread.

    Also noticing that we all seem to have the same slightly bent right forearm spike on our Wreck-Gars.

    Gosh it got to the 4th page for someone to think of this. I’m not sure if there are any Nicholas Cage action figures out there or not for a movie version as he has been in a few action and genre movies that might have ended up with an action figure.

    I personally think that rts Lugnut rides wreckgar the best. Though I'm somewhat biased since I was the one who took the photo, but I have reasons:
    1. his hands can grab the gas pedals(?),
    2. his double knee joint allows him to tuck his legs in a more nature position that you take with a motorcycle.
    3. (if you flip up his back kibble) his crotch and hips are well sized to sit in the seat.
    4. it's silly

    the new GIjoe figures look pretty good on Wreck Gar as well.

    no one has ever asked "can a power core combiner ride wreck-gar?' the answer is yes, but not very well. upload_2021-11-21_16-49-9.png
    the automorph arms ain't vey good at being posed at all. all the tosros and limbs are about the same size, so here a good idea of what it will look like, the one's with wider hips will probably work better.

    Is it just me, or does Mirage look like he’s wearing assless chaps?

    I wanted to get him in a pose of playing his lazerbeak guitar while riding, but I just couldn't get it to work :(

    I wanted to see how well the combiner wars molds are at riding wreck-gar.
    don't know why I started off with blast off. don't know if I'll continue to do more cw stuff. he can't sit in the sit well because his hips aren't wide enough :(

    Friday at TFCON Chicago 2022 saw SS Wreck-Gar being hijacked by someone's TFCC Heatwave! The Energon Barricade mold rides Wreck very well, with similar width in his shoulders & the handlebars.
