    Wings and tailfins could work well for a toy-style chestplate...

    Really odd. I'm not sure when I preordered, but mine should arrive tomorrow (Thursday at the latest).

    That's not far off from 1/144 scale, but I no longer have anything in that scale.

    Maybe we'll get IDW Protectobots from Reformatted too at some point.

    No Dragon Ball avatar anymore?

    He does have ankle tilts, they're just higher on the legs than where they should be.

    Ye nah it’s a knee tilt. It can help in the same way but it isn’t. Knee swivel isn’t a thigh swivel, etc.

    There was a post earlier showing where the tilt was, wouldn't call it a knee tilt so much as a mid shin tilt

    I mean, ultimately the lack of ankle tilt isn't a huge problem because he stands pretty stable. It just looks crap and unnatural when a figure stands on the inside of its feet. And I don't excuse Fanstoys from the same criticism either.

    I feel a bit warmer about the figure today though. He feels good in hand. I really hate the arms though. I'm also disappointed in myself for preferring the alternative head with the animation error colouring

    Don't be. When I eventually get mine I suspect I'll feel the same way. I had Revenge of Bruticus on VHS back in the day and watched it so many times that my mental image of the Combaticons is burned into my mind from that episode - animation error or not.

    Just reiterating, but it's a lot less noticeable with Blast-Off's character design because his toes will never be flat on the ground.

    Did you get a shipping notice yet? Just curious. I'm still waiting but if they're going in order, I did grab the last pre-order so I'll have to be patient. Lol.
