I wish the hands could have integrated better into the alt and robot modes for both toys that have them. They are really unconvincing. But it's a minor quibble about the figures, they look fantastic.

I liked the combined Hercules pic with the color-swapped guns. Only problem for me is, I tried building the gun with 4 red pieces I have available, but the top piece (Exgraver 's weapon) doesn't fit into the groove of the back piece (Dr. Crank's weapon). I had no problem getting the purple pieces to fit together. Anyone else tried this yet?
Maybe down the line, it'll be nice to have a 2nd set of these guys for individual modes (or at least Mad Blender). I absolutely love how these guys are turning out!

Today i received my Dr Crank only to discover that the Hercules head had no face. I mean he had the red transparent plastic for his eyes but there was no face!!! Anyone else had the same problem? Any ideas on who to contact and where? The irony is that along with Dr Crank today i also got the face off accessory for FP Protector. If only it could fit
Contact the store you bought it from

Most people want the purple so either make it purple or give us both.
Also, Bonecrusher looks alot better with those pistons flat down because it kind of hides them. I hope reprolabels makes a set of stickers that turn his black chest green.

Well, he has feet just like Exgraver built into his treads, and while those feet are out, the pieces of the bulldozer are above his hips. OR you can flip in his tread feet, and move the pieces of the bulldozer down to the bottom and use them as feet. I think that's pretty nifty.

I join Rated X in hoping for a green chest panel for Neck Breaker, but think I'd rather paint the entire shovel myself than have a series of stickers. I see what MR Optimus Prime means about the hand hanging off the back of his vehicle mode: it's wrong but at the same it kind of works. Very happy to see his knees bend with the 'dozer shovel feet. That, and shoulder pistons down = win. But he is still the wealest figure of the bunch in my opinion.
Blender still looks awesome, even with a square cab and crazy amount of wheels. Honestly can't see the drum being able to stay on his back in robot mode. I could be wrong, but I think the transformation means the space on his back is reduced. Not to mention the fact his rifle is made from the core of the drum, and I imagine it's be quite back-heavy. I wonder why TFC masked the colour of Blender's rifle on the majority of his solo shots but then left it alone in the group shots.
Speaking of which, they certainly look like a force to be reckoned with. Very nice work. Can't wait to get them all.
Sorry for going on a bit.

That makes sense.
