Aloha folks, today we look at Studio series Wreck-Gar 86 style! The Autobot that replaced Ratchet and Wheeljack in the 3rd season medic alongside First-Aid of the protectobots. Without delay, let's get started
Boxing
Your 86 style-like packaging. The backdrop is of the Junkion planet. Ironically, they are flying the Junkion ship without Wreck-Gar I guess. The back of the box explains Wreck-Gar and his Junkions become friends with the autobots after exchanging the universal greeting.
Wreck-Gar
Yup, you can toggle his chest guns or nipples as some sites call it.
This is my first time fudging with a Wreck-Gar figure despite me owning the RTS, United, and Junkheap figures (still sealed). In comparison, this version looks smooth and immaculate like his 86 screen appearance. One of the few autobots to sport red eyes which is usually a Decepticon feature. Technically, his spiked wheels is placed on his left side. However, you can place them where ever you see the individual red spike that sticks out of each of his limb. Some of the spikes on my wheels came with paint loss already. But I'm ok with it. Wreck-Gar plays nicely and has ankle tilts to further improve his posing. Probably needs a gun but I'm sure 3rd parties with rectify this action. Also, I can tell some of those gaps especially in the back of his forearms will irk some folks. I think as I write this, there are third parties on Ebay selling parts for those gaps. Additionally, if you look carefully, the back of his head forms the dash of the motorcycle (hence, the odometer). And last but not least, he does have a waist swivel.
Alt mode
New improved Junkion cycle is sleek sexy import with turbo handling! Motorcycles are amazing! And Wreck-Gar is no exception. Fairly easy to transform and I'm simply amazed how this alt mode turned out. As you know, I'm not a big fan of alt modes too much, but maybe I love the fact you can put another Transformer on top of Wreck-Gar. The back of the calves form a lever to prevent the bike from tilting to the sides. However, the foot rest area is so low that it prevents the bike from toppling over completely. The handles of the bike is rubber and feels like it's gonna wear and tear down the road if you play it continuously. Ah, the joy's of playing with toys.
Conclusion
Wreck-Gar checks in and he doesn't check out. He is here to stay so hurry, hurry and get him today. If you love motorcycle figures, then WG is a must have. A worthy purchase of the 86 line. No guarantees if he resist fire, rain, and corrosion for 5 years but satisfaction still guaranteed. Thank you and Jesus loves you.
