Herp a Derp, Derp, Derp! This was great! But I'll probably buy retail so that I can see their instructions.
Just an update, I fixed the doors. The problem is that the balls on those joints are too big for the socket on the door. Easy fix. They're still capable of popping of, but they hold and pose SO much better now.
How exactly do you fix it? I'll probably get Skids anyway, not Mudflap, since the doors on Mudflap SUCK. I love the whole "Herp derp derp" part too.
Sanded down the ball joints just a bit and hollowed the socket out a little bit at a time until they fit and stayed on.
Hey Peaugh, could you do a sweet video with the twins talking to each other like you did in the review? I laughed pretty good at that
Do the twins smaller arms possibly connect? I was thinking with their left and right big arms, maybe they combine their smaller arms to be like Rack'n'Ruin? Ahh! Why are there 2 different Transformers Wikis?!?! http://transformers.wikia.com/wiki/Rack'n'Ruin http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Rack'n'Ruin
I like the figure albeit the doors falling off the hinges. The plastic looks a little cheapy too like they were made for play and premiums are to come later for collectors. I'm still concerned for the price increase. What are deluxe class gonna go for $11.99? $12.99? Either one is a pretty steep increase. I'd be more comfortable with $10.99. I really want these figures when they com out, but I think I'll wait. I'm not worried. Every figure was available to me for the first movie a year after they came out and they were all premium. Something tells me that a year from now there will be some imporvements on ROTF toys too.
I sense a "Team America" tribute coming... derka derka jihad derka. (Autobots! FUCK YEAH!) I like the overall look of Mudflap (or would that be "Derp"?). His transformation seems annoying, but other than that issue, he seems to be aesthetically pleasing. I think Deluxes are MSRP $12.99 with flavors of that in Wal-Mart, Target, etc.
Just opened a Mudflap from Mass release... no issue on ball joint at the door panels.. it is sooooo tight. btw, Mudflap is nice despite its goofy head sculpt. It does look like a doggy... hehe... dog lover might appreciate that ?? btw, it has some nice details ... damn.. got to admit I like the movie's figures... though I like animated and universe 's as always.. but those kind of details just can't be found...
