Transformers Kingdom Road Rage Revealed

DeathReviews wrote:What WAS the deal with ER Sunstreaker anyway? I remember wanting that one, but it never appeared in stores last year anywhere near my realm (at least not that I know of). Nor did I ever see it listed as available on Pulse. It was only ever 'not in stock yet' for the longest time. Then it instantly jumped to 'sold out' and has been that way for months. Same with Trailbreaker and Runamuk - that whole wave seems to have been a ghost wave that was promised, but never delivered.

Availability has been patchy and unpredictable for a LOT of their stuff lately. They make way too many of some figures, and almost NONE of others. Pulse has proven to be equally unreliable. They're supposed to be the place for members to be able to get the figures that are hard to find in stores, but Pulse is always 'sold out' on everything too. What's the point of an exclusive selling platform that never has enough product to meet demand?

It may be great arrangement for the scalpers, but it's terrible for everybody else.

I’m just so sad that the robot mode turned out to be so Unlikable for me. There are 1 too many things that make him look like inspector gadget or a LEGO character. And aside from the many hollow parts and lack of weapons, the most unforgivable thing about his design for me is his FACE. I just don’t understand why they would give him that dumb face. I really would’ve just loved if they gave him a mouth mask to give him a more generic badass-but-friendly-autobot feel. But those eyebrows. And that chin. Oh gosh. It’s just the worst. And I highly doubt any upgrade kit will fix that issue.

That's what MP Road Rage had.

Since the first "turnaround" video of its robot mode, I notices the two big gray panels on the back of the lower legs.
They looks like they're hinged at the lower end (the one near its feet)
I wonder if they're supposed to be "turned inside out" in the ark mode to cover the hollows in the rear side of the ship.
