Transformers Collector's Club Subscription Service Figure 2.0 Barricade

Tue Jun 03, 2014 11:30 am

Just got my Barricade, damn he is nice. Only complaint I have about mine is he's a little floppy from the fairly loos ball joints. But it isn't so bad that he can't stand on his own. He won't be holding up frenzy on his own any time soon though. He looks great in either mode. Props to them for such a good job on this figure, it's beautiful.

Got my Barricade yesterday and he is really sweet. Even better looking in person and Frenzy is awesome as well. He is one of only 3 or 4 arms microns I really like. Can't wait for the others now and I also have not gotten Rampage.

Thanks for the review! Seeing this guy in person... super impressed. Great figure. Really crisp tampos. Color scheme really looks amazing in person. :KREMZEEK:

I guess everyone's Frenzy was misassembled, too, huh?

Sure looks that way. The prospect of fixing it terrifies me, these things are not made for re-assembly.

For me, it was a relatively simple fix. I found it easiest to remove both lower legs first so as to get a better grip on the upper legs piece. Once those were out of the way, I got as best a grip on the piece in question as I could, and firmly but carefully pulled it free from the groin. Once that was done, it was simple matter of merely turning it around, clipping it back into place, and popping both lower legs back on. Took me less than a minute or two.

Thankfully Sou's legs are attached via a C-clip, easy to fix at the cost of possible stress marks. I'm actually dreading Stylor, the S.2 mold has a rather nasty assembly error in the instructions that's nigh impossible to fix without being super-careful.

Coming to a mailbox near you, TFCC 2014 membership incentive figure Maximal Rampage! Thanks to Seibertron.com user Zomatron for the heads up and image below. Rampage compliments this year's exclusive Transmutate and can be stored in her packaging.

Will post a sentry at my mailbox to secure Rampage's arrival. =P~

Yes indeed, the Transformers Collectors' Club Membership Incentive Maximal Rampage/Protoform X is arriving as reported, and YouTube reviewer Primal Sabbath has uploaded a video looking at this very nice, new-head sculpt sporting, redeco of Transformers Prime First Edition Deluxe Megatron. The video also includes some nice comparison shots with archnemesis Depthcharge and box companion (in a way) Trasmutate. Check it out below!

Rampage's head reminds me of Crab Destroyah's from the Godzilla franchise.

Well, it's no coincidence that he originally transformed into a Transmetal king crab!

I've been waiting forever to see a comparison of Rampage and Depth Charge, hoping that Depth Charge didn't tower over Rampage. I'm pleased to see that they're both fairly in-scale with one another! :grin:

So, so, so friggin' excited about coming home and finding Rampage in my mailbox within the next few days! :BOOM:

Got mine today. What an impressive past 3 business days. A new TFCC toy since Friday. I'm getting spoiled.

They definitely did a great job on this guy... I just wish mine didn't have the crappy paint defect on his left eye.. Maybe the club will replace it for me at Botcon... Worse comes to worse, I'll just hit it with a bit of neon green paint and it'll be all better.. No matter, I plan on buying a second one anyways :lol:

News Credits: 123 · Wed Jun 04, 2014 9:22 am

Looking good! Can't wait to get him in the mail. =P~

Wed Jun 04, 2014 10:59 am

Yeah, he looks fantastic in person. While the head is a pinch small, I think it's within acceptable parameters. Looks okay in person, like he's a big-bodied brute. Sculpt is really nicely executed, too. No complaints there.

And I have to add again... paint apps look AMAZING on this guy. The gradations are beautiful.

Hats off to the club. Will proudly display this one with Depthcharge and the Botcon set. :APPLAUSE:

I'm fairly certain it's going to be Fisitron, shown a week back:

News Credits: 656 · Thu Jun 05, 2014 10:29 am

Yeah, if Fisitron is getting boxed up already I'd bet on that.

News Credits: 461 · Thu Jun 05, 2014 11:01 am

=/ was really hoping it'll be Chromedome.

News Credits: 462 · Thu Jun 05, 2014 11:09 am

Yeah, Fisitron has a "2" on his seals where Barricade had a 1 on his.

Which means we're getting the two Aligned guys in this year's subscription service first.
