    Was checking out with the green one but it sold out. Still 2 copies left of the yellow version at time of this typing.

    ok. I'm willing to jump in too... but

    Does anyone have a video of this kit (LikeToys) that shows how it's installed, and so on, as I'm confused to how the new hips/thighs connect and what happens to Long Haul's legs..?

    I'd like to see how much the difference in stability is.

    Longhaul's legs and such fold back to form a backpack.

    You can also take long hauls legs off as they are no longer needed.

    err.. which is it? (hence why I'd love to see a video) But this is sounding like it's making him into a complete part-former then?

    ShowZ needs to stop playing these kinds of games with their stock number. My heart can't take it.

    On the product page you can see Long Haul's legs/Devy's old thighs folded up against Devastator's back. An option on the original 3d printed kit, or possibly the only option, was taking off the legs instead IIRC.

    Glad I checked back in here on a whim. Made a quick order! The other bits are nice, but my Scrapper has a peg on his scoop that broke off making that foot highly unstable so I'm very excited for the slipper so I can pose him around more easily again.

    I think they're braces to hold Longhaul into place.

    You can take his legs off just to give Devastator a cleaner look without a “backpack”. The original LikeToys video showed it both ways.

    yep, I snagged one. Though it still drives me crazy that they keep playing these kinds of stock number games. It's like they're trying to trigger our FOMO.

    Any pics comparing this upgrade set with TW Constructor? I have the green G1 Constructor v2 and yellow G2 JB Gravity Builder. I'm tempted to purchase upgrade kits for both green and yellow though, and eventually sell Constructor if the yellow upgrade kit is stable. I have a good version of v2 Constructor that has no breaks or issues, but I've always preferred the stylized look of Gravity Builder.

    Got the link for this video? (It's what I'd like to see).

    Buuuut anyways.. it's purchased anyways... Screw it. I can figure it out once I have it as I'd rather not miss it and regret it later.
