Cant seem to find the automorph gimmick on my barricade. Is he busted?

He doesn't automorph. But he has 2 gimmicks :

-he can eject Frenzy
-he has some spring-loaded punch action in his left arm

As megatroptimus said, no automorph on Barricade. Neither does Scorponok. So fair to say any deluxe figures with major gimmicks won't have automorph. It's one or the other.

Thanks for the info.

Whats the punching action like?
And is the ejection of Frenzy Missile like, or is it feeble and weak?

Punching action (to me) = lame
Frenzy = feeble and weak.

I agree. The punch is rediculous and stupid.

Frenzy is a decent sculpt but impossible to pose cool. I wish he could've had balljoints in the shoulders.

By feeble and weak he means doesn't fire at all, and you have to actually pull Frenzy out. Or, that's just mine :???:

And personally, I like the punch. Great for posing if it's kept out.
