TlDr, not worth it if you already have the Netflix, and they could have made some efforts in remolding the defects like the Siege leftover parts.

And being reminded that this figure is going on 4 years old...
I really will be surprised and almost shocked if Hastak doesn't make a SS86 version, even if it's not until 2026.
Plus he needs to be bigger and better overall.
I would like to have Buzzsaw, so this is still on preorder... But we'll see.

The siege leftover bits are a real bummer

I'm sure someone will come up with something.
So far, we have 3 cars, one copter, and two bikes. The bikes could serves as parts of the arms, or just be the arms like sword-hands. For the torso, a combo of the copter and the black car could do the job, finishing with the blue and white cars as the legs. That is, for a humanoid bot.
I'm sure we could also witch things around to make a beast.
For example, we can turn the copter into some sort of beetle.

No doubt, but I haven't seen anything yet that looks like a combiner head like the other two had (Fosilizers had a few options).

Unfortunatley, if you are particular like I am, and like to have your combiners faction aligned, there's still a problem.
What we have now is STILL a heroic Junkasuarus with a missing arm (Scraphook, Crashbar, Trashmaster and Tow-Line). But on a more positive note, we are 3/5 of the way to a Evil Junkasauraus if you have Axelgrease in addition to the Star Raider Lockdown & Road Pig. Just need an evil Trashmaster repaint/retool, and another evil Crashbar or Road Pig repaint/retool.
*Also get us a Predacon Wingfinger while your at it Hasbro...Common cant let that tooling only have one use

I was hoping initially. It seemed like the first Armorizer was a heavy retool of the Scraphook mold. But upon actually having them in hand, other than the hood piece, they are completely different. Not sure if a combiner could be made, but it would be cool if they did. Ive only been getting the deluxes because thats all that was used in previous combinations (or bigger)
I still contest that Vertebreak and Dracodon weren't really fossilizers because they didn't have the pull-apart gimmick. At least the Core Rock creatures can be made into weapons. But I've refrained from getting them, unless at some point a practical use for them in a combined mode is revealed.

Checked my doorbell cam, and sure enough, almost 7 AM on the dot, someone from Walmart dropped it off. Didn't know they do that. Didn't even get an "Out for delivery" notification or email.
I'm so used to USPS or even UPS/Fed-Ex telling me something was delivered and not actually receiving it for another day.
Btw, for those storing the Hammer head and claw in Cannonball's legs as per the instructions, be careful with the hammer. If you put it in too far, it becomes REALLY hard to get back out.
Having him in hand now, I'm excited to see the Red Alert paint on him. It's a really solid mold. I like it WAY more than the Burn Out figure I have.
The ONLY complaint I could possibly have about him is that I wish his Cyber Key had been cast in or painted the purple plastic his windshield uses, instead of just solid black. Or better yet, in transparent Purple Plastic! It would have looked so much better.

Unless they do a Cybertron version that's probably not going to happen, we have an Armada Voyager Red Alert coming next year.

Is it really possible that they'd do such an extenstive retool and not paint it in the colors of the character it was originally used for? There's no way!
It has to be a SG Sideswipe -> Aramada Wheeljack situation!

Considering the last 15 months we have gotten both Energon and Armada Megatrons and Galvatrons, I don't think it is out of the question that a Cybertron and Armada Red Alert can happen next year

No Kingdom Fractyl and Packrat
Still no second use of the Wingfinger mold
A hundred Seekers and no Sunstorm (and Nacelle in the wrong mold)
Did a retail Twincast but still not a retail Soundblaster
Still no hint of a G1 Skyquake, MW Starscream or Universe King Atlas from Legacy Skyquake
For that matter Needlenose hasn't been retooled to one of the Predator jets to go with a G1 Skyquake
No Animated Fisitron despite having the right(ish) body and head for it (from the Troop Builder 4 pack)
Some Armada Starscream repaints and retools (well, except for one that's going to be nearly impossible to get for most)
The list can go on and on. Hasbro does a lot of things that should be easy and make sense to all of us, but just never happens.

He's really worth it. Especially if you already have Cyclonus and Metalhawk. He rounds up the family well. I'm looking forward to see what the Reprolabels for him will look like.

I was able to get that preorder.
I have found her several rimes in stores since. The line is selling well though, with the stock dwindling at a good rate locally. There might be none left as of me writing this, havent checked in a couple days.

Thundertron is horrendous. The bot is great, sure, but the transformation is not fun for a wolf mode that is ugly all over. I'll either sell or trade him.
I really wanted the set for the rock lord. At least he have a new head and his colors are magnificent. Plus that beautifully painted extra cassette could be a nice Blaster minion.

Hence why his original toy was redecoed (with no retooling) into Leo Prime.

Thank you for proving my point in how horrendous that beast mode is.
