Yeah, but energon sixshot takes the cake (while everyone was cringing at his colors)

Right, ancombiner with a lackluster scattershot, and a nosecone with no abs... pass.
What I don't get is that there are a metric f@#k-ton of combiners coming out, considering CW is ending halfway through next year.
We know the G2 and Victorion waves are box sets, maybe G2 sups and menasor will be a case assortment, and G2 Bruticus and victorion will be a case assortment?
So (if the [fairly accurate thus far] rumors are to be believed) then, how are the (inevitably crappy and flawed) technobots and liokaiser going to be released? They can't all be boxsets, right? Will they be interspersed throughout TW, or will they really be boxsets too? I really don't want to pay $100 for a set with 2 crappy brawl figs just to get - what I imagine would be - an epicSky Lynx repaint.

Yeah, the abs are painted, so no trickery there, so... black magic?

Perhaps that's been the right way to transform it all along? Better that it doesn't lock in than have that floppy mess?

Well no, the cw version has painted details showing you which is the proper side, besides, the front that's showing in the pic there, is where has/tak are putting the trademark info...

I don't know what they were thinking there. Maybe the hinge was supposed to be on another corner of the crotch piece and it would have actually sat properly there, but instead they put the actual ab crunch in the wrong spot? I just don't see how anyone thought that was a good idea

The problem are those little trapezoidal bits right under the torso, you can see them in the pic, they obstruct the hinge from collapsing flush against the torso;
But I agree, this is an inexcusable travesty, especially, as it's one of two (entirely) new molds for the rest of the line, and already has a whole host of repaints of it - all of which are ruined now by virtue of association.

If it's those two tabs that are being a hindrance, it shouldn't be that difficult to take them off. Exacto knife ought to do it, nail clippers too. Cut those little suckers off, sand down what's left, and that should eliminate the problem entirely. What I'm curious about is how big of an effect, positive or negative, would have on the whole figure.

What it is really is that there is now way for the hinge that the waist is on to fold up against the underside of the body properly. you couldnt cut it off since you would be cutting off the whole hinge the body is attached to the waist with. There really isnt a way to fix this besides replacing that whole hinge/waist area

If you watch the video, you'll notice trapezoidal bits that the hinge is being pressed against, get rid of those, and the pelvis should rest against the torso flush.
