Human Alliance Roadbuster Found at Retail + More Images

RodimalToyota wrote:Sorry guys,

Haven't had a chance to open him yet, won't get size comparison pics till tonight. But here is a taste, and some proof of what I claim.







Vehicle mode is insanely detailed, and unbelievably detailed. Pictures can't do it justice. Best HA figure to date.

Awesome

Is it me or are most of the HA figures a tad on the chunky side?

Ok Hasbro, I'll make you a deal. You make all the Wrekers in HA scale and I'll get them. If you don't I won't get any of them

Let's see who wins.

Good find.

(cost of HA Roadbuster) = 3.5(cost of Deluxe Roadbuster)

Not when the Deluxes are $11.95, and HA's are $29.99




Also, I wish I could open this, the tires almost look rubber.
I doubt they are, but that would be epic.
And now that I think if it, I bet you Hasbro can't release these 1:24th scale Nascar's for licensing. So i bet the only way you will see Topspin and Red leader in HA size will be in "Wrecker" mode. I hope they do both, Top spin is just a remold, and I have no idea what the third wrecker looks like, does anyone?

Human alliance leadfoot. Get a good look. he has a beard, a beer gut, stubby legs, and a pet bulldog named steeljaw that turns into the gun on his right hand. and who says were over steriotypes?

What!? Damnit, now I have to take my Deluxe Roadbuster back so I can get this!!! I don't have enough money to get 2 versions of a toy!

Wow that looks cool!

Don't care, that is awesome, please and thank you.
I hope Topspin is in the works then.

Epic. If they had HA Topspin, I swear, I would make this my Wrecker Team (just not use them with the other Mech Tech figures)

Looks cool. Hopefully the HA figures are not smaller too.

One thing that bugs me about the Wreckers' toys is the inconsistency of being in battle mode and NASCAR mode. I would really like my collection to have all 3 Wreckers in battle mode.

I saw some pics on another site comparing him to HA Jazz, he's about the same height.

Too bad I don't collect HAs, cuz this is pretty badass. I like it a lot. The Deluxe is just a little bit disappointing.

why would hasbro only make 2 wrecker human alliances?
duh!
topspin is in the works right now
i would bet and win a million dollars

People said that about the bike sisters in ROTF, look what happened there

I hope those weapons can at least be hidden like stealth mode. I just don't like how some of the weapons stick out. Overall the robot mode looks very decent!!!

Yay! This is so exciting. So, is he *supposed* to be out now, or were they to have a later release date? I'm DEFINITELY going to have to make one more hunt/run before botcon, regardless, I guess. eeeeee.

What? oh, I wasnt dis'n leadfoot. actually, he's my personal fav! If only a decent sized figure would be released! A Deluxe leadfoot in battle mode, so they can hide the Target Logo, and give me a full deluxe set! I can put roadbuster in Weapon mode, my own personal way, wich looks pretty good IMO. BTW, is it just me? Or does HA Roadbuster here appear to have alot of folding panels? if so, Maybe he has a Regular NASCAR mode too! TAKE A CLOSE LOOK! when compared to the actual weapenised roadbuster car. of course, those extra "INTACT" car parts there (the front with headlights etc) could just be there for a more screen accurate robot mode. meh, im just confusing myself...OPEN THE DAMN THING ALREADY!

I need a full deluxe set of the wreckers. They would be the perfect autobots to fight my team of coneheads...

though i would then need an additional three decepticons to balance them out...and they never make many decepticons. Maybe Megatron, soundwave, and something hahaha

Comparison with HA bumblebee,







Ah yeah, mech tech works with these!

They can not be smaller: by definition, all HA are in the same scale (1/24 I believe, but not sure).

Amazing pictures ! Without doubt the HA series (both standard and basic) are the crown jewels of the DOTM toy-line.
I just wished more decepticon were released: Barricade is awesome and Soundwave is expected, but it would be nice if Sideways (with Alice maybe) and Rampage (with Sam's parents) were released as well. On the Autobot side, HA versions of Jolt, Mirage, Ratchet and Wheeljack are also very welcome.
