I was never much of a fan of the Groove mold to begin with, but redoing it almost exclusively in pale orange makes it look like a blob of cheese.

We've recently had a rather excellent Wreck-Gar toy (with an extra opportunity to get it in Platinum Series). This really should have been another character. Igaunus, Roadpig, Override.... ect.

That thing should be called Wheelie. Wreck-Gar should have been a repaint/retool of deluxe Groove.

Thanks for those! The bot mode comparison pic with big Wreck Gar was awesome. It screams for a caption. "Now son, drink your milk and grow up to be big and strong, like me!" (I'm scratching my brain to come up with a good, recognizable television quote with a father and son....)

Nothing comes to mind atm, but maybe something Ward once said to the Beaver might fit.

He does look much better in that light; you can see the contrast between orange and yellow, not to mention the red paint on his front and rear sides (which I didn't even know he had before).

Orange has got to be the worst color to photograph (with white a close second).

This mold should've been turned into cybertron ransack not wreckgar, really getting tired of hasbros obsession with G1 & IDW. Dont get me wrong i love G1 and think its great when they remake obscure characters like skullcruncher & whirl or update ones we havent seen in a long time but so many of these molds are being robbed of their potential because hasbro has blinders on.

I'm all for updates to non-G1 characters, but for some of those cases I feel that some of the originals are already good enough that I feel those ones don't need updating. Ransack's original toy really just needs its rear wheel pieces assembled correctly and maybe some better paint apps (or any, in regards to its key), so I feel just a reissue of the original with more paint and the wheel fixed would be satisfying enough (as I missed out on both the original Hasbro Ransack and Takara Gasket; I have the show-inaccurate Ransack GTS, though).

I really don't need a Ransack that looks more a like red Groove instead of Ransack and turns into a combiner piece the original didn't turn into.

Except groove transforms like cyb ransack, so it's more of a case of groove looking like a white re-design of cyb ransack, so an homage to him would've been nice [-(

That's kinda what I'm feeling. Maybe not a whole army, but he doesn't have to be Gar. Just some little Junkion pip squeak.

Edit: Might be cool to give him the Off Road mold ax.

At least have the decency to show the combination with Sky Reign next time! Maybe it'll solve the mystery of the unused peg and hole :lol:

o.supreme wrote:^Perfect. So then... I assume since on the packaging for Legends Wreck-Gar (pictured above) states he combines with Sky Reign, then said instructions on the inside would show how? Yes?

If not, then this would be a first for Hasbro, advertising a designed combination on the package, but then not providing instructions for said combination on the instruction sheet. I mean... I know he is not officially out yet, but since a few people seem to have him already, can we not get a scan of his instruction sheet?


The actual packaging does not have the "form to combine" label on it. It looks like Amazon got the old stock photos before the change went out to retail.

Weird, I've always felt like Hasbro should do more with IDW themes and characters. H3ll it's like 5 years since LSOTW's and we still haven't got a decent Overlord...... That leader Class line should've been made for characters like him IDW Scorponok and Sixshot for that matter!

Weird character choice, but I like that these scale well with the cars.
