Happy Thanksgiving Transformer review: War for Cybertron Earthrise E37 Runamuck

 Did a quick photoshoot before spending much needed time with the fam. Without delay, here is Runamuck. Boxing Here is the boxing and contents. I used the decoder to see where Runamuck is from. If I decoded the map right, he seems to represent Earth.  The figure: Looking good so far. No qualms too much though he has an extra set of wheels for his heels. Depending on the angle, it sometimes looks like he is on a segway or something. Peg his weapons like other figures where ever you see the 5mm port.

You can stick it to the left shoulder if you choose to stick the right shoulder cannon assembly piece but you can see it's a tight fit for him. He can freely move his head if you put it on the other side. Vice ver...
