    For about 10 minutes I considered getting these, but they are $120 each, and there are 6 of them and oddly enough there is no reissue of their Wreck-Gar. This seems like a hail mary for KFC. I think they look cool, but I'm not sure they sell all that well.

    And here's even more of it being used. One less tube.
    Let's light a candle for it.

    Well... there's easily 3 or 4 tubes running into my house. So, if most modern houses have that then I think we ca safely assume we have plenty. As long as we can avoid too many people watching the Episode 1 trailer with their modems at once.

    Anyway. I saw these earlier today and thought maybe they'd be a cue for MFT to KO them to match their Wreck-Gar that's coming up.

    I'm good with the original Crash Hog and Dumpyard... I think I'd be more into these if 1) they were significantly cheaper (they're worth what they're charging, but as characters they're non-entities so it's not like any of us "need" ANY of them), and 2) there was more variation in their body type. i.e. squatter, shorter, thicker, etc. The Junkions in TF:TM didn't all have the same body types; some of the ones homaged by these toys look almost nothing like the proportions of this toy.

    These are also BIG toys... if they were, like, carbot-sized I might could get a couple more. But I don't even have room in my display for more MP10-sized bots.

    If I were to only get one, I think it would be the wheel-chest guy, because he looks the most different from Wreck-Gar and Dumpyard. ...aaaand as I say this I'm realizing the mistake I'm making by even allowing myself to potentially leave the lid to that Pandora's box cracked, LOL. Because if I get Wheel Chest Guy I'll want Big Shoulders Guy. Then I'll want Goggles Guy for some more variety. And then I'll have to get Yellow Chest Guy just so he'll have a partner too. Gah.
