Pretty much my set up too, except I don't have the Whirl upgrade and I DO have the NATO-bot kit for Roadbuster.

Rack & Ruin are a bit of an odd character(s) to represent in a classics line up?
Can you post pictures of your customs please?
Would anyone consider using any of the Marvel Crossovers, Star Wars Crossovers, Fansproject Causality, TF Prime/Cybertron/Energon as a Wrecker stand-in?
With the many repaints Hasbro put out and the possibility of swapping compatible sized heads without too many problems, what has been your most creative achievement when it came to that killer Wreckers line up?

I have not seen that custom head before, is it a Shapeways print or a 3rd party upgrade?
I reckon they will be scout sized, but I'm not too worried if they are smaller than the others, as long as they are in scale with each other. they will both be bigger than Guzzle, anyways.robotmel wrote:Banjo-Tron wrote:I might have to buy the new Wreckers combiner, for Topspin/Twintwist and Impactor.
That would fill a few gaps but Id be concerned about their height? Are they going to be deluxe sized or scout sized?

Not that that's difficult, in all fairness!
I still maintain that they are somewhere in between, size-wise.
Have size comparison pictures appeared for the Combaticons yet?
Va'al wrote:They're all supposed to be Deluxe class though, so they will be the same size as Onslaught.
So still a little bigger than older Scout size.
As I said, I'd like to see them scaled next to something from the Classics/Generations/RtS lines, in robot mode.

Oh right, I didn't realise they were deluxes. I'm hoping you can buy them seperately, as you could buy 2 topspins and paint one blue - he seems to sresemble the old figures better.
