Separately these are cool, but when you put this unit together it hits different and you can't help but to feel good about it. Add a desert Vanguard with the driver to round out the unit and it's totally on the money.

That's poop! I don't have this guy since I wasn't interested in him when he was announced, but I think a big part of it is his shoes. They're curved. In the past, I've put a small shim under certain figures that wouldn't stand on their own. You could also try sticky tack. I don't like stands at all. Also, I have a small desktop space heater that I stand the figure in front of at around 9-12" away for a couple minutes. It makes the figure very easy to move around for a minute or so after. Of course common sense applies to that method. I would be willing to bet when the figures cool off from the factory, the tolerances for movement decrease. The opposite is us getting floppy bodies. Hope any of these ideas help you out!

Roughly 10 years ago before I was involved in any toy community (other than the Masters of the Universe fandom) I joined the Transformers community on FB because of 3rd Party Transformers and I used to wish my favorite toytubers and photographers would perform a "congruency test" video or shot to show if the Transformer would match and play well with certain brands (since there were so many back then). Now that I started to become a toytubuer I'm going to make it my mission to conduct congruency tests to see what meshes well IMO.

Dear Hasbro, Would you please be so kind to include instructions on how to have the action figure sit properly on your ATV toy product. This would be a tremendous help to one of your customers who goes by the name Cocoasmooth. It would help shorten his videos and prevent him from posing your action figures in a suggestive manner. This could also make him look more mechanically inclined than he is. Any consideration would be deeply appreciated. Sincerely, Len S. All kidding aside, I think the handles could have been set further back and maybe a little higher than they are. The way it is now the figure needs to lean forward to reach the handles while trying to keep his butt on the sit. Your videos are always fun Coco!

I'd rate this figure around a high 8/10. Reason being, I can't say exactly why--but there's something funky about the boots. The design is fine, but I dunno if it's my eyes, but somethings funky about the color. It reminds me of my kids shoes after they've been playing in grass all day 😅 I'm strongly considering swapping those calfs and boots out for a pair of spare Mezco Blade boots I have. I've seen a few customs on a FB group where some people swapped and used the OG Punisher boots, and the Black Skulls Brigade boots. Either that, or I'm gonna do a re-wash of gray/black/and gunmetal tones...but that green tints gotta go! 😆 And glad you went ahead and put of the review man. Stay frosty 🤙
