The Energon Pub

I knew what we were getting from the promotional pics of Crankcase, but having the figure in hand still leaves me feeling a little flat. Crankcase is a retool of the Legacy Skids mold and that's where most of my issues lie. The retooling that was done to the Skids mold to make it look less like a Honda City and more like a Humvee makes the robot mode a bit fiddly, I just don't feel the back and torso ever lock in properly. This isn't a bad toy, but I'd say it's not the first one of the wave you should run out and buy.
