Overload is an interesting one. He's very faithful to Ben Procter's concept art:

To be accurate to the concept art, one should rotate Overload's shoulders down instead of leaving them flared out as a lot of people do; this also means that Overload will take up slightly less space on a shelf. Even so, the width makes Overload imposing despite not being particularly tall, like Mixmaster and Scavenger.



This won't be a surprise, but Overload's backdrop is the same Egyptian quarry that came with the other Constructicons.

The silhouette gives me RoboCop 2 vibes, especially since one of RoboCop 2's arms is a pincer like the ones Overload has on his outer arms.

There seems to be some confusion as to what model of dump truck Overload transforms into. The concept art that describes Devastator's individual vehicles as well as Procter's concept art lists the vehicle as a Komatsu HD465-7, while the vehicle used for filming is said to be a Caterpillar, possibly a 773B or 776. Either way, the toy only replicates the general layout and colour scheme, leaving Mixmaster as the most accurate Constructicon toy (as well as being the only one that is licensed).







All eight Constructicons together at last!
