I won’t have anything new toy-wise to talk about until about Thursday night, if this UPS tracking remains correct, so we’ll just have to fill the emptiness with promises of future things to talk about.
Check out the cover of the next Transformers Collectors’ Club magazine. Generations Wreck-Gar is coming! (Oh, and Perceptor truck, I guess, but meh!) And check out the pegs under his crotch and the matching peg holes on his motorcycle seat. If you get more than one, he can ride himself. I dig the asymmetric stuff going on with his body, plus how they managed to update him while harkening back to the original. He still rocks the facial hair, plus they kept his gun-tits! Hooray!
Oh, and the second Recordicons strip should be inside! Woooo!
“And check out the pegs under his crotch and the matching peg holes on his motorcycle seat. If you get more than one, he can ride himself.”
Come on. You had to be giggling at least a little bit when you wrote that.
Wreck-Gar totally all ridin’ himselves with his own peg in his…
oh god my brain
*Crosses his fingers and hopes for Junkion redecos*
No. What we need is for Wreck-gar to come apart easily, and then me RETOOLED into Other Junkions. He should also come witha Television.
I would be SUPER surprised if there’s not a Junkion head retool. Most Transformers have built-in head retools these days, and he’d be an odd exception, especially since he has very obvious buy-more-than-one playability features sculpted in.
Speaking of Transformers, Hot Shot totally dies in the second Drift issue.
You REALLY thought you’d be the first to get to me about that?
Anyone who makes any Transformers-related comic and doesn’t send it to you first is a fool; you’re like a kajillion dollars worth of free advertising for them. I probably wouldn’t have heard about Last Stand of The Wreckers if I hadn’t seen it here, and the thought of that makes me cry almost as much as the comic itself did. If I worked on one of these series, I’d have them send my comp copies to you instead and buy my own on the stands.
IDW probably wouldn’t want the kind of publicity I’d give their Drift miniseries.
Austin Powers so totally stole the idea of chest guns from Wreck-Gar.
The pegs could also be used in robot mode so he is leg humping himself.
God, that Wreck-Gar is a thing of beauty. I need him like my step-mother needs insulin.
