    This guy looks stellar. Guess a new detolf is in order because I’m gonna buy every Junkion they make

    I would assume that PvP will be the first to review Laser Prime (Hopefully tomorrow) since he's usually the first to get Leader Class toys.

    Looks really good. Just needed his legs tweaked and he'd be perfect.

    Would getting a Junkion as a Kranix be any weirder than getting a Transmutate out of Paleotrex?

    could of course be that he had the figure but not the time to do a video review currently and just threw it in for the review he did have time for, so people could still see it


    I mean, part of what's fun about new transformer releases is looking forward to seeing more of something and this did whet the appetite

    So will the gallery on the main page be updated now that we have a video review or maybe even posted a new one?

    Would be great if they'd actually make all of them. It would be like a whole line of Seekers. Maybe we'll get 2- or 3-packs like for the WfC trilogy Seekers.
    I definitely want a Rubbish and besides some retooling you only need to peg two wheels on the outside of the knees in alt mode instead of between them. Does somebody here have two Wreck-Gars and could already show this?
    And Hazmat could just be a redeco of Junkyard with a new head and without the shields.
    AND we need a Detritus of course. I wonder why Hasbro hasn't already done one in the Selects line or one of the WfC trilogy sublines. Maybe they want to release an Earth mode Hound first but to me Detritus would make more sense with the SIEGE alt mode.

    Absolutely.

    What are the odds that they'll make an "Animated" Oil Slick out of this mold to..?

    I'm in for every retool/repaint Has/Tak wants to make of the Wreck-gar figure. Bring on every and all Junkions!!
    Hope they make a Nancy, then we can have her ride Wreck-gar. Um, heh, you know with him in bike mode and her as a biker chick on him. :confused2

    I really like the look of this guy. I don't have any Junkion figures currently, but I will admit that Wreck Gar and this guy look stellar with a really cool alt mode. I like Wreck Gar's colors, but Junkyard's Robot mode details more. I have only seen WG once in stores but now if I see him again...I may pick it up and will definitely be in for JY. :)

    I’d like to see Vroom remolded from Wreck-Gar. He wouldn’t be a Pretender but would still keep his Human face.

    As long as his side car turns into a little Vroom, I'm in. That little fucker is adorbs.

    (Hey Hasbro, I'd still prefer a unique Vroom mold. Just saying.)

    Now everytime I see this figure all I can think of is how great the Cy-kill digibashes look and how badly I want that. It seems like a remold to look more like Cy-kill might be pushing it in terms of copyright, but I wonder if they could get away with just a straight repaint, no new head or anything? It obviously wouldn't be ideal but I'm sure there would be 3rd party heads.

    Core class robot car/moto-sidecar and a Wreck-gar remold Pretender shell.

    Never happening, but it'd be cool.
