ooo, I didn't know that Crank had the "strut" mode as well as the wheel-based crane. Makes him even more awesome.

Actually that's just his crane attached to Exgraver using their individual weapons for struts.

someone tell me again how much these are to stop me buying them!

They look mint, and the fact that parts are interchangable between them just adds to the goodness

Why not ??? Third parties make it happen while Hasbro sits clueless with their thumb up their ass. Im at the point where I personally feel Hasbro might as well throw in the towel. Theyve lost most of us to 3rd parties except when they push G1 inspired lines. And without new M. Bay movies to hype up the brand they will lose the kids too.

M. Bay related movie figures = success

Generations and RTS = success

PCC = flop

Kreo = flop

HA junior figures = flop

Very, very nice. Are those their final decos, or just their base colors?

Also, I'm glad someone finally started a new forum to the present article insteady of stapling it to the Exgraver one. I love this site, but it has a bad habit of that.

it sucks being a poor transformers fan :-(

That Scrapper looks awesome. I think he's gonna be the only figure that I will buy from TFClub's constructicons. He will go well on my Decepticon Leader/Commander shelf.

Looking solid!

Looking good! Hook's head is killer! Yes I still call them by their REAL names.

I know these are tests shots, but even my Scavenger looks a little.... bland, as far as paint goes. I'm almost certain Reprolabels will push a set for these guys. Their kit for PE Reflector makes a grand difference! I wish these were out already!

Looking grand indeed. The versatility of the accessories is impressive. I'm a little disappointed that Structor's scoop is black, but after Exgraver I really should have expected it.

Well, these aren't final product pics...let's hope the black shovel isn't final either.

I have been worried that TFC would use a black shovel on Structor. Very annoying. I am also surprised the upper legs on both Hook and Scrapper are black, I thought for sure they would use pale grey plastic. That is my main criticism of the otherwise brilliant TFC designs, too much black plastic.

I will try to paint as much of it green or pale grey as I can on mine, but I can see moving parts getting in the way of that process. I hope TFC paints Scrapper's crotch purple too, or else that is another after-market paint app I will have to do.

I'm just not blown away by the look of these things. For those prices I should be.
