I might return it, but as many here may know, it can sometimes be a bad move to return a 10 minutes to beer-o-clock figure, and end up with a dead on beer-o-clock figure =oP
    I bought both these two packs too since the guys I wanted came in different packs

    Air Raid looked cool on the back of the pack (and didn't disappoint either) whilst Storm Surge looked/is kinda lame (what's up with his arms/hands or lack thereof?)

    I thought Clocker looked pretty ordinary (and still does) whist Hardtop was the one I really wanted in this pack... the pic on the packaging made him look awesome (which he is)!

    Yeah you're not alone in your complaint about the clip things on the back of his legs... mine actually fell off a couple of times whilst transforming him, so I guess yours isn't an isolated incident - just a poor design and/or manufacturing process.

    I feel kinda cheated spending $60 for both packs... the quality's just not really there - maybe worth $20/pack not $30

    This plagued me many times when seeing this guy in a single pack from the Movie 1 line, I love his alt, and bot mode is cool, except for those poorly thought out arms... Such a shame, as it's my only main gripe on an otherwise cool Scout.

    I quite like Clockers alt, but the most appealing part to me from his alt is entirely lost in bot (his bonnet/windscreen) But yeah, Hardtop is a cool little guy for sure =o)

    Hrmm... Both comforting and disappointing at the same time. Mine fell off the second I touched it, but after some messing I got it to stay there at least. I guess being an obvious widespread issue, probably not much point returning him, as it is out of site in both modes after all, which is possibly why QC didn't care about the issue.

    Very agreed, but I kept putting them off from the Movie 1 line, then missed out, and the box they were displayed in was labelled in big letters "WHILE STOCKS LAST", which suggested they weren't a standard production run quantity, so I figured I'd regret it if I waited for a sale and they sold out beforehand. Oh well, as I tell my lovely wife, I don't drink, smoke, gamble, speed, do drugs etc etc, so Transformers are a much cheaper option (comparitively) =oP Even $50 for the lot would've been nicer, but in the end, still cheaper than them seperately (Toyworld wanted $19.95 each )

    I quite liked his boaty crab arms.

    Lol, funny you say that, because after I posted that the other night, I actually reviewed the instructions (I usually attempt transformation without them), and found out I am supposed to slide the little grey bits back, presenting a crab claw-like look, which I thought was quite an improvement and quite suiting, being a sea-based alt and all =oP

    It has been very dry of late. Hoping for some joy at tomorrow's KMart sale.

    I saw HA Bumblebee at K-mart today but I am waiting until the sale starts tomorrow

    For anyone that has the HA Bumblebee, is it any good? It will be my first Movie figure since Jazz from the first movie

    I'm not buying anymore ROTF figs except for Legends... but I am definitely tempted by HA BB. It seems like the kind of figure I really would've wanted when I was a kid, so maybe I'll check out the sales tomorrow!
