Things you can do with Junkion 2: Combine 2 copies with 1 Scraphook to form a mega bike car. There are dedicated tabs for this. You can make scuba tank things with the weapons His wheel to become a spiked shield Things we dont know about Junkion 2: The rectangular peg holes on 1 side of the grey weapon The small tabs on the pipe weapons The side car attachment in the poster Weaponizer configuration
I don't think this Junkion is as nifty as Scraphook, but I definitely like him. I think it's time for me to start figuring out how I'm going to turn my Netflix Spoiler Magnus into a Junkion to work with these new Junkions.
Not bad. Not as interesting as Scraphook, imo, but I'll definitely be picking up Junkwheel here. Hopefully Wasterunner (the muscle car) looks as good in person. I really like these weaponizer Junkions, and I hope to see more figures like this in the future!
The mega bike car was shown on the poster. Interestingly it looks like you can still transform Scraphook while in this configuration. The spiked shield is a pretty cool concept, kind of like the warrior equivalent of a Shuriken. Maybe the weapons have a hidden configuration that's yet to be revealed. I think we'll get a mix and match combiner like we did with Kingdom Fossilizers. As for the sidecar it's probably from the 60s Camaro Junkion that was on the poster. The weaponizer configuration tho? I doubt it'll be impressive but maybe I could make a whole set of gladiator armour using two of these bike dudes. I think it's part of the 60s Camaro Junkion on the poster. That side is just drawn without the headlight on it. Pretty sure the mockup sketch sorta confirms this (the mockup had concept art of the Junkions in mixmatched vehicle modes).
I think the final result will be a mix of muscle car elements. Probably the body will be shaped like a Charger while the front appears to be based off a 60s Camaro.
Detritus was not listed as one of the Junkions IIRC. Unlike the others he didn't have the word Junkion on his listing.
So far I'll get both new Junkions but I won't be troop building them until they possibly start showing up on sale at Ross or Ollie's somewhere. That $24.99 for Deluxe's is starting to burn bridges...
Even Peru is getting figures earlier than the states?!?! Has Hasbro started taking crazy pills!?! I realize this person likely ordered this figure through an unnamed source who is getting these figures after they've fallen off a truck in Vietnam (similar to other factory toy thieves like Prime vs Prime), but it's always curious as to how these are getting out so early.
These figures are produced many months before their release date. The toys you see leaked are factory rejects; they probably failed the QC testing. Factory rejects are discarded, and usually a worker salvages some of the rejects from the discarded pile and sells them. Note that errors can be made during this process, like how PVP got a wrong accessory with Generations Selects Hubcap, or how Kreemzeek Reviews got an additional head (mask?) with his Kingdom Blackarachnia figure. Recently a few factory copies of Crosshairs did not come with the spoiler, and some factory copies of SS86 Ironhide (like PVPs) came with only one gun. Yup. Half of the front can attach to the bike to form the sidecar.
It’s probably becoming of how the grill on the muscle car is a series of vertical slats, but it’s very reminiscent of either a 340 Duster with the “shark tooth” grille, although the ’67 Cougar eliminator and a couple years of Charger had a similar look going on. It’s definitely not going to be a licensed model, but as you said it will pull from several models. Squint your eyes and you can probably see anything you want in it.
