I thought so too... the extra pegs are like outrigger legs. But... still seems weird that there's a 7th tab. Structor is the only one so far with his connector port isolated enough to let him connect in a weird direction to Crank's extra pegs. I guess Blender will be like that too. Hmm. I don't know.
Crank's right-arm is very loose at the swivel. But I have no problem otherwise with the transformation: I like the peg system: I turn his arms up and peg into the head, then fold at his elbows and rotate fore-arms into place to peg with the "back" piece. I wish that back-piece was a bit smaller - it blocks a lot of the light-piping effect for Crank's head.

Sure wish I have these last two releases to play with, but freaking bbts still has yet to receive that darn battle tanker. I'll probably get these after the new year after the holiday shipping and everything dies down.

The pictures posted today on Robotkingdom FB page
show us a purple barel on Mad Blender...
A green shell with purple interior is better
and gives better balance when combined.

Still quite an amazing feat to do... although I would be more amazed if he could lift, say... Aoshima's Shin Seiki Gokin Ankoku Daishogun ;D

just notice.. his back wheels already off the ground If you look at the first picture in the upper left, you'll see all of the wheels are off the ground - it's supporting itself on the pylons/gun pieces that are attached at all four corners, just like a real boom crane often does. |

Just received these today so here are mines. Damn thing cost me a arm and a leg, and I seem to have miss place my glasses...  Can't wait for the final two. Hopefully the rumors are true and that they will release Bonecrusher early in January and before Chinese New Year. And hopefully Mixmaster will come along shortly after that. Here is a New Years Resolution to TFC, get the last two to customers before the month of March. Oh, one last thing, I got that Knight Morpher Prime a long time ago. Forgot to mention that I also got that Sonicron (Soundwave) on sale at BBTS. Even on sale I have to say it isn't really worth buying. I like the Alt mode mini recorder but the robot mode is extremely floppy. |

TFC posted a new message on their facebook today:
No news on when the next figures will be out... And I'm also a bit annoyed since both Neck Breaker and Mad Blender are up for pre-order (so as usual, I ordered both to save on shipping); means I'll be waiting for up to 3 months before I see my next figures. Oh well.

Yeah, I also picked one up through the BBTS sale and this guys is pure junk. I am pretty forgiving on 3rd party stuff but Sonicron truly feels like a Big Lots toy. Very disappointed. With the quality of Fansproject, iGear, and TF Club, I had gotten to a point that I didn't really question if a figure is decent quality before I buy. I won't do that with these guys again. |

So I got to see this in person today. There was one in a shop here, but the arms and legs were the same on both side. It was still very impressive. The face looks better in person. Not perfect, but not as bad as in all the photos I have seen. If they had it all here, I might have picked it up. It was a little higher than retail though.
