Ok! Flip the script!! 8)

Creating that Neo-Classics line-up for everyones favourite hit squad The Wreckers can be a difficult one.

My first thoughts when starting this thread was 'Come on Mel, get a shelf sorted for The Wreckers'.
Image

Unsure which figures would make that ultimate line-up a reality, I asked for your help... and you guys are coming through with some great ideas!

Mixing up previous and current toy lines from Transformers with 3rd party figures is the perfect way to represent The Wreckers in a modern classic way.

Tweeking the line-up of past, present and maybe future Wreckers is my current project. Full-time, part-time, fringe and deceased members are all fair game for this project! ;)

One problem I have now encountered is... scale?
There are a number of suggestions offered which drops the figures into a Voyager scale but also as many, if not more in the Deluxe/Scout scale?
Aaugh!

So whats a Transformers fan to do? :???:

I know! :WRECKERS: Create line-ups across both scales!! :WRECKERS:

Just dont tell the wife...!! :-$

Dude, the Wreckers are a rag-tag bunch, they don't have to be perfectly in scale. As long as you make sure of the following, you should be ok

Broadside is the biggest, followed by Roadbuster/Impactor

Guzzle is tiny.

Sorry for the delay in getting my own pics up, been a tad busy recently!

But check this out for a potential Wreckers Sandstorm stand-in...

Asia GDO Sandstorm

I think he would sit quite well in a Scout/Deluxe Class line-up?
Whatcha think..? ;)

;) Thanks to Robot Kingdom for the pic ;)

erk, that mould used for Sandstorm is awful. Best to wait for FP to do their magic on him.

I've never really cared for Sandstorm in particular but that should be a very good stand in. That way if nothing better comes along, you'll still have one!

Very true. At least the colors and one alt mode are correct. I mean there is no good figure to be repainted as him right now. All the helicopters are really wrong for him, and the dune buggies are, well, they chose the best one in my opinion.
