    His ab crunch is driving me crazy. It's more of a crotch crunch, but since his legs are heavy and the crunch is rather loose, it swings his crunch forward constantly. Then it's hard to uncrunch him without mistakenly moving his legs to different position. Minor inconvenience, but still noteworthy.

    How many times did I use the word crunch?

    you can never say crunch too many times. also, that sounds just like UT cerebros and crotch crunch.

    I dated a girl once who got a UT cerebros. Her crotch crunch was all messed up.

    Yeah that seems to be kind of a Newage thing, as Jazz does the same kind of crunch that gets in the way when you're posing his legs. Personal opinion, I think I'd be perfectly fine if they abandoned that concept. Ab crunch is a decent extra, but in no way necessary.

    Yeah, I'm finding the crunch on Starscream pretty useless since his head barely moves.

    IMO deception heads should always be able to look straight up, so you can do robot mode flying poses.

    It's disappointing and I don't understand why they didn't include a notch at the back of the head like the carbots.

    Ugh, this was something I was concerned about. Hate this kind of ab crunch--or as you more correctly call: crotch crunch! Drives me nuts on UT Cerebros and NA Prowl.

    Agreed! And without it you'd get a few less panel lines on Screamer's waist piece. Win win.

    Agreed! And it's such an easy thing to pull. Real head-scratcher on NA's part.

    It didn't really bother me on Prowl and Jazz since it was tight. But, man, Screamer is one loose floozy that just insists on gettin' his twerk on.

    the joints were a little too smooth for my liking and i dont think any of my usual pin tricks would work on it.

    the crotch could be annoying as well if i was stuck with the bot. he does take a second to get into poses and now i know why he has a stand. to really make him shine.

    the tiny hands and micro accessories is just a thing now that im not into. so i cant really go on about that.

    maybe im just too spoiled with my IF bots and the rest of my rag tag collection.

    it is a nice bot even if it is pricey. but not nice enough to move me away from my IF seekers.

    That makes sense then. I absolutely adore my IF Seekers and if I had to replace them in order to get NA I don’t think I would either. They are just too fun as well as beautiful.
