Does Optimus hold the Megatron Shotgun well?

It's a pretty snug fit, like Megatron's shotgun is a 5.2mm handle instead of a vanilla 5mm. I only put it in a little way cause of how tight it felt.

Wow! With a peg that fat, we might just have a weapon Legends Ginrai can hold firmly!

So, to anyone else that has scrapper, is anyone else kinda worried with how scrappers neck plugs into the pole in his chest to turn into a vehicle? It seems worryingly tight, and this is not a figure I wanna risk breaking

Just got him yesterday, it is slightly concerning to me.

Mine probably won't be in for 2-3 weeks, so I can't compare to yours yet

Was messing around with Devastator when I managed to get him balanced on his arms alone!

And absolutely no stands or supports were used, just some good old balance

I've transformed him from bot to vehicle about 10 times so far and haven't noticed anything on mine yet.

[ZeldaTheSwordsman]

He looks even freakier like that

I've had some issues trying to fish his neck assembly out of his chest after I stow it for limb/vehicle mode... but snapping anything? Not really *too* worried. I don't like that there's no real way to get you fingers in there from behind to "fish it out".

I feel Scrapper otherwise is the best constructicon to date. I just wish his claw hand was articulated, or looked less like a egg beater....

I totally agree, he is fantastic. And now that I can't unsee the egg beater hand, he is going to be the official cook for the group whenever play crosses up with the botbots.

Well who else gives Megatron the eggs just as he likes them?

[D-Maximal_Primal]

I'm glad to hear Scrapper is impressing everyone. Makes me more excited for him that there hasn't really been a negative comment his way at all (outside of non-movie fans)

There is an easy way to get his head out, just push it out before you pull the combiner port down and plug in the arms, like this:

You can easily push the head out like this!

I was gonna say, poke the head out through the back of the bot before you peg everything together

I'm kind of digging Sentinel with dual cleavers instead of his traditional sword.

I'm not big on Studio Series (I didn't even pick up a single figure for it) but I'm still waiting for Studio Series 'The Fallen'. Will such a figure ever be made? I get ROTF is kind of a disliked movie and he's bland-ass villain even by Bayverse standards but, man, that design.

[D-Maximal_Primal]

I'm hoping for a year 4 of Studio Series, and I am hoping he is one of the Leaders for it

They've made several others from ROTF, so The Fallen has just as much a chance for a figure as anyone else from that movie.

I know, but I was just pointing out that it's not a 'high priority' character which is why he likely hasn't shown up when other things from the movies have. In fact he's conspicuously missing given all the ROTF stuff we've seen so far, like Megatron, the Constructicons and Jetfire.

Yeah, even Arcee got made, and she's not a 'high priority' character either.

[D-Maximal_Primal]

I'm also surprised they haven't made the Fallen yet. Might have something to do with his non-existent alt mode and them having to make one up for him, but then again Shockwave happened.

I really think he will come next year. He's one of only 4 characters from RotF we haven't really gotten. though I'm surprised they didn't focus in a little more on RotF, since next year is DotM's 10 years.

Plus, I truly think that given 1 more year, we can cover all of the movie cast (if you count AOE and TLK under SS banner since they pretty much all scale).

[ZeldaTheSwordsman]

I think it's because the Fallen would have to be a Leader-class figure, and of the Leaders we've had so far (two of which have been some of the aforementioned Constructicons) the only one he really would have been able to displace is Shockwave. We also noticeably haven't seen Grindor.

You say that, but hasbro spent two years releasing devastator; they're probably taking some time to design him, since they might give him a new alt mode to accommodate a better looking bot mode that might even have the weird arm struts; plus if he is going to be a leader class, they have to wait for a slot to open up, since this year is dedicated to mostly the constructicons, they're taking up all three of the leader class slots

[Sentinel_Primal]

If/when we get the Fallen, I hope he has a removable faceplate.

[SpikeyTigertron]

I'm sure we'll get The Fallen, just like I'm sure we'll get Jolt and the Twins (*sigh*). Like others have said, I think it's just that *so much* of the last two waves have been filled to bursting with Constructicons and repacked constructicons, that there's just no room for anyone else. Hell... I'm surprised Scrap Metal and High Tower haven't bee repacked again. It is cool to walk into a store and see three different voyager constructicons on the shelf though.. Almost brings me back to G2/Combiner Wars days.

[Jelze Bunnycat]

He has to! Then we'll get an exclusive release of Optimus with the hooks
