I agree ... he's easily my favorite from the DOTM line so far.

I think he sucks compare to most of the deluxes -.-...Why? Here's why :-
1) Damn simple transformation
2) No uniqueness in the transformation
3) In bot mode he looks so simple almost like "Scout" class simple -.-
4) What's up with that god awful hair on his head @_@...
5) Weird fingers >.>...Really it's either two fingers too long or two fingers
clipped?
6) The mechtech looks weird X_X...
7) One of the worst paint apps there is
8. Kibbles on the arm
9) What's up with that huge pincer on his head? Really what's the use of THAT?
10) The fingers are too small compare to the arm proportion
11) Small for a deluxe.
12) Kibble on the leg.
There you go. So really when people say this figure sucks they're completely rational and not "out of their mind" .Even if I have a MILLION dollar I would think 100 times before buying this guy.Seriously the only deluxes I recommend is Topspin and Bumblebee(If you dont have a bumblebee yet) . The other two deluxes sucks too xD. Ratchet is too bulky and weird leg proportion, Skids is FAT and SHORT. There ya go~

Its kind of like Basic Instinct, but not in a good way...
Goddammit, now I can't unsee it.

I agree to disagree with what feels like hastily fired-off criticisms of the Crankcase figure.
1. It's simple, but it's nowhere near legend-class simple. Perfectly alright for a deluxe.
2. And what do you think is unique? Hood-becomes-chest?
3. You look at all the detailing molded onto his torso, his face, his arms and legs and tell me that looks scout-class simple.
4. Don't like the hair, just pull/cut it off.
5. Alien robot fingers must follow human finger proportions? Especially from the outlandishly-designed movieverse? Not to mention it's only one long finger. Go bash Megatron's fingers while you're at it.
6. Crankcase's mechtech hardly looks weird compared to the others - it's design and function complement his appearance.
7. I don't see anything bad about the paint apps - the gold, silver and red break up his monochrome black/grey.
8 and 12. How many transformers don't have kibble on their arms and legs?
9. You could say the same for G1 Shrapnel and all those other figures with hornlike kibble.
10. The longer arms give Crankcase a lankier appearance. In any case, the fingers hardly detract from the figure IMO.
11. He is hardly small for a deluxe, even without the horns.
You seem to know this figure so much when you don't even own one to handle. I'm fine with your disliking, but go do your research properly next time you critique.
Anyways, thanks for the effort put in these new galleries Seibs!

Skids (and his twin), in my opinion, are looking much healthier than their ROTF deluxe counterparts, and I love the twins anyway so I'll probably end up getting both of them.
I'm on the fence on Crankcase...I just don't see the total awesomeness in him to make him my next figure. I'll get him probably, but someone convince me why he's the best.

Xterminator wrote:Crankcase is pure evil, awesome figure. The only negative-point I see, is that he deserves a Voyager mold. That would make him the best figure to pose fighting Ironhide and/or Ratchet.

And that's why I'll be passing on Crankcase. If he pops up again as a Voyager or a Human Alliance figure, I'll give him another chance. But I don't need a Suburban that's smaller than a Camaro.
