The sensible thing for me too do is
#buy united Wreck Gar
#buy e-hobby Scrapheap
#Buy hasbro Wreck-gar repaint
therefore three completely different characters :D
plus hasbro wreck gar for the united wreck gar to sit on whilst on display??Quote:

Main gripes are
-front wheel is very loose so he doesn't roll happily and can look like its whacked out of alignment.
-front wheel despite being loose cannot be detached at all, woulda liked a tyre shield like the original movie.
-bit where toes lock together in alt mode looks terrible, but i'll accept this over robot mode instability.
-paint app lies on official box art, photoshop enhancement is one thing, outright omission advertised paint apps is another.
Sounds like a case of 'Product may vary from image shown'. I never understood this disclaimer. Why not make the actual toy look like the image :confused:Quote:

For those of you that own him, are there any problems with your shoulder joints? I found this over at TFW, and hope it is not widespread.
Oh and apparently you can rotate the wheel on his arm to make it similar to a shield.

I just got my RTS Wreck-Gar and noticed that the wheel on his shoulder is removable. It's connected via a ball joint and a tab to hold it in place. You can either unhitch the tab and rotate the wheel down like a shield, or remove it altogether and have him hold it in his hand as a melee weapon.
My shoulders are just fine.Quote:
