You won't regret it, I got mine deleivered by Kapow yesterday. Unfortunately they didn't supply the extra battle damaged head, but by no means was that a given. The figures themselves are really nice. Great plastic, sharp paint apps, they hold together extremely well in both modes. Poseability is exceptional in my opinion. Anatomically, these chaps are rather top heavy with overly-long arms, but this doesn't overly spoil them. These are fantastic value for money, too.
This is the perfect way for any new third party to establish themselves - start small. Pick obscurish characters and put your own stamp on them. The packaging and bios are wonderful too. I would love to see these guys handle Rack 'n' ruin, I could even see them using the same basic mould with a lot of retooling. The hammer melee weapon is already perfect for one of them. I would buy Rack 'n' Ruin off these guys in a shot, although obviously the market will be smaller than the one for the Jumpstarters.
Totally agree with every thing you said Banjo-tron, Ordered mine on sunday had by tuesday super fast delivery . I think these guys are perfect if i was gonna nit pick i would say that the thighs could have been a bit higher as they seem to be on the crotch area but like i said perfect representations.
So in the bio it says something like "the other members of the demolition crew" i assumed demolition crew was the name for just these two characters so does this mean meach ideas could be doing a wreckers crew? since nobody else is touching them doing combiners and headmasters if they do and execute them like geminus & apex they'll be on the map alright.
