Let's not go there, please.

Crankcase seems to be a troubled figure. First his fingers are clipped, now he's got loose limbs. Except now, we're doing the complaining for him, which will make him even more miserable.
The resident Rewind... well, half of one :lol:

Looking for:
- TR Furos (Hardhead's head) and Crashbash (lost him :()
- PotP Punch head

What number is on your Crankcase?
Does he have intact middle fingers?

My Crankcase is a 10601 with snipped fingers, and his joints are good and tight. He can even hold his mechtech up in front of him.

I can't count how many times you are wrong, sentinel. Stealing something, ANYTHING, a part of a toy, or a leg of a table, it's stealing.
And I agree with Skyfire.
It effects us, because, it gives us Transformers Collectors a bad image.
Why do we care? Because YOU could get into some serious LEGAL s, err, slag, and, I repeat, give us a bad image.

And to stay on topic: Yes, mine is loosey goosey. There's already a topic on this:

Holy crap, why don't we just burn him at the stake and get it over with?

Was the thread he started bogus - YES. But, I can't believe how worked up everyone (with the exception of CB, he works here) is getting about that.


Anyway...


Yeah, Crankcase's joints are a tad loose I've noticed. I've been debating trying the 'ol super glue trick I've heard of so often.

Let's lay off him guys. He knows how everyone feels based on the overwhelmingly negative response in the thread you guys are referencing.

On topic: yeah mine's a little loose, but it's nothing a little superglue can't fix, mine also suffers from the clipped fingers. I plan on getting two more, I'm going to try to find unclipped ones.

I probably won't buy himm unless it is a clearance sale in a year or so. But, I surely would be upset with all the issues if I really liked the line.

Why was everyone giving the one dude a hard time calling him a thief? Did he buy a figure and keep the accessory after returning it or something?

He bragged about stealing a MechTech weapon out of a package, leaving the weaponless figure for some unsuspecting person to buy.

Oh yeah.....I just read the whole thing. I don't think he has done anything that anyone else hasn't done sometime in our lives. But, it is stealing and the fact that he is bragging about it shows no remorse. Hopefully he will realize it is stealing no matter what it is he took. Ultimately, Hasbro will eat the cost of the item, but to me the theft is the disheartening thing. Hopefully he will repent of his actions and return the gun. Sentinel, just take it back and put it back in the box you found it in. And never do it again.
I find it funny how he thanks God for helping blind others to his theft. I'm pretty sure God had nothing to do with your crime.....

No further discussion on the matter.

On topic: Gonna have to go down to K-Mart today and see if I can find Crankcase. He seems to be one of the most talked about figures this year, need to see what the hype is about!
