Thank you, but did I watch the video, and the reviewer noted that Hound and Wheeljack were substantially heavier than the other two. That's part of the reason why I'd like to see him scrambled differently. Less weight on the arms might help prevent the shoulders from sliding out of place when he's standing in place, and it should drop his center of gravity to reduce torque on his hips.
The shoulders will probably still pop out of place when you deliberately move the arms, of course - just like Menasor and Defensor - so that'll need some clear nail polish or some Construct-Bot parts worked in. Or, I suppose, a person could just grip him by the shoulder instead of by the waist when moving his arm.
The point being made, both by the reviewer and myself, is if we have to hold the shoulders to move the arms the toy can't be played with, and therefore is a failure. And if the hips are so loose the toy falls over with slightest hint of a touch the toy cannot even be posed on the shelf and is a failure.
Further, and this is just me now, if I have to augment the toy in some way to make it work (not including correctly re-configuring miss-assembled parts), said toy is a not going to be a part of my collection because I don't collect turds, not the ones that come out of me, and not the ones that come out of Hasbro.
Thank you.
