Yeah the shoulders on mine are fine too.
I didn't even notice that about the wheel being able to be removed - quite clever! It's very well hidden in the abundance of Hasbro grey. :p
As for the shield part - hmm, it's ok I guess.

My one has the stress marks (though not to the same severe degree) on his right shoulder, hopefully it will be alright and doesn't break, but it is annoying as it's making his shoulder a bit loose as well, other than that, he's fine.
I think the bike mode is a bit compromised as you can clearly see his waist piece and hands, and his head is clearly visible on the underside (although these are only minor complaints). It's a fairly big bike and I like how his weapon is stored.
Robot mode is really awesome, his weapon looks great, only gripe I have is his knees, as they can't straighten fully. The range of motion for his head is limited due to the size of his head and his facial hair, but the sculpting is really good. Overall a good figure, with an easy transformation making him fun to play with, I'm just worried about his shoulder (which seems to be a hit and miss).
That is one of the greatest TF pics I have ever seen.
EDIT: Actually, it gets better.
pretty easy to take the front wheel off theres a slot in the front disc and just the ball joint to be taken apart and bingo he has a shield

overall hes okay figure, but a great homage to his orginal character
RTS Wreck-Gar is a great homage of the original character. Easy transformation though, I mean really easy! Would of worked great in Scout size for army building! In alt mode the motorbike is perfect for action figures as riders.
I still can't find him anywhere :(
Yeah, everywhere around here is totally gone too -- I've given up and just pre-ordered a United one from HLJ. Still haven't been able to find anywhere online to order Jazz or Grapple/Grappel from -- if anyone in Sydney is planning on doing an online order, mebbe we can combine? I rarely shop online, but the continual lack of finding new stock is seriously giving me the poo-poos (Hasbro's failure to reply to my questions about stock distribution isn't alleviating this frustration either :().
5FDP: did you want to add a United Wreck-Gar from my order? The only problem is that HLJ might ship him in the same box as the other United stuff I've ordered, or they might ship him separately. Chances are it might come in the same box as it's just pre-orders atm, but there's no guarantee. PM me if you're interested. :)
