You have a point, but I still can't help but be excited about more wreckers things regardless. I am curious to where they are going with this (either make their own new body or let this be a addon kit). I actually hope it's just an add on to something (like the Kup heads) that way I can afford it lol! Besides I'm getting into customizing so nice new head sculpts would look sweet on a customized body.

Haha, my opinion isn't absolute, and I knew you'd be happy about it. Personally I think the Marvel X-over Hulk.. or is it Captain America? makes a pretty good Hulk.

Hahahaha

I like the custom Warpath frenzy_rumble made using the MX Hulk as a base.

I just hope they make a shoulder cannon and a harpoon arm to go along with the head.

Perceptor/Reflector from the recent Generations lines would match up pretty well. I'm going to keep my eye on this project.

I'm wondering if the head is actually the first hint that iGear is going to be going into figure making/copying. I'm sure if you look at any of the Transformers boards customizer sections, you'll find a lot of custom Impactors...

I've always thought that Universe (1) Bludgeon (G2 Hero Megatron repaint) made the best candidate for an Impactor custom. That mould will never get old.

The open mouth worked for Kup and it sort of works here too. I like it but the gaping mouth could be toned down a bit. Curious to see what this turns into.

I agree. They don't need to get on a trend with the open mouths. I've been thinking, though, and here's what I'd like. Ditch the screwdriver and give me his shoulder mount. Ditch the rather nice iGear box and make me a new arm with his harpoon hand

. I think if we have those three things, there are a few molds that may work as a classics Impactor. I would still like to see a complete mold though.

I'd also guess the generations darkmount toy mold
