YouTube member venom711 has posted a video review of the recently released Human Alliance Roadbuster with Sergeant Recon. Not sure if you want to invest your hard earned cash on this guy? Check out the video review embedded below.

Not really a huge fan of the bayformer wreckers but this figure does look fairly nice. The alt mode looks really good but the robot mode seems too lanky.

Telling me that I should definitely pick him up, he's awesome and well worth every penny doesn't convince me to buy it. WHY is he awesome? Just cos he doesn't have a backpack?

Nice looking figure, bad review, 12 minutes of trying to transform, badly edited (clear where stuff was cut) and not many reasons why I should/n't buy it, (tempted though)

Also does anyone know of a review for Cyberverse Commander and Voyager Sentinel Prime

The only reason I'm surprised is because peaugh didnt review this figure first o.O...Pretty much just that.

I'm gonna consider the wreckers after I see all 3 of the wreckers's review :D.

I will definitely be getting this figure! I'm sticking with the HA scale for my movie figures so I do hope the other two Wreckers will also come out in this size.

Oh, and Venom711 did a good job with his review. He had a clean background, spoke clearly, etc... A good effort! I admit that I skipped some of the middle because I don't have the figure yet and didn't really need to see all of the transformation. Perhaps the transformation sequences could have been edited down to about 3 to 5 minutes. I, for one, appreciate the effort he put into the review. For those who are complaining.... what a shame. This guy puts forth the effort to share the figure and all you can do is criticize! :roll:

I didn't think he could look any worse, but I can see, now, that I'll be buying the deluxe version after all. Screw the backpack. At least the deluxe has its size as an excuse. This guy looks like an Erector set. Haha

Actually Leadfoot is confirmed to have a HA mold. You can see the figure at transformers com on their vector sigma section and click leadfoot bio and check picture 2 and 3 for the robot mode and the alt mode. Topspin however havent been confimed but high chance hasbro will make it.

Well everyone have the right to complain so no use preaching about it. Will it affect the community? Nope. To be more exact it wont change anything by saying it.I mean,it's really tiring seeing and hearing people complain about something that's not gonna change...EVER... :roll:

Love it. Definitely buying. :) This is the type of HA I adore, with nice complexity and the HA interaction (with human) features don't get in the way. I'm glad they're breaking down the doors more and more with each figure, too, it seems. Yay!!~

I really like the idea of owning a set of these. I think the potential for collector value alone should persuade people to pick these up. I just really hope for a HA set of regular vehicle modes. Like the figure, hate the review.

Dude, that's just the latest craze...blast the reviewer. Don't sweat it... I thought it was fine. I won't watch it 10 times out of pure entertainment, but who ever does? The point is to show the fig and you did that.

My only question would be do the guns that turn into headlights, can they fold down in alt mode to the point that they look like a natural part of the car?

I agree. I've seen lots of videos that have really cluttered backgrounds and where the sound was pretty bad. I'm sure he'll improve. I think it's a good effort and I for one am glad he put up the review so I could look at it. Although I must say proportions wise, I may stick with my deluxe, which I'm very pleased with so far (except poopy blotchy white paint job)
