    So as a kid I absolutely loved my topspin, when he broke I was absolutely devastated. Years later I had the amazing idea to fuse him with multiple broken transformers of the following, 2011 skids, 2011 mudflap, 2014 evasion Optimus, 2011 bumblebee, studio series dino, and an old lego Optimus. After mashing them together I decided to give him the name Wideshot, he's in perfect condition and I absolutely love him

    Two of my all-time favs. FYI, there are panels that fold out on Roadbuster’s missile launchers. The green panels on his lower legs also rotate a bit. And the arm ports aren’t spring loaded, only the top panel is. Would love to get a Leadfoot someday to complete them.

    So glad I rushed at getting a Leadfoot back in the day, the lineup is so fun. Just wish we'd gotten Roadbuster in his bulked up form... The reprolabels for these things also elevated them so much. Also even liked the race-car conversion Bumblebee mold with the racing nets for the door windows, really cool stuff. Ultimately I wonder if the Studio Series Roadbuster might not fit in better with the other two, though (I suppose scale might be an issue but I still really love Topspin and Leadfoot)

Thanks Titans Return scalpers… I never was able to get Legion Topspin as a kid either, though I did pick up legion Roadbuster and Leadfoot. Leadfoot came in a two pack with a blue repaint of Cyberverse Commander Ironhide who I just decided was the third wrecker now

This was before I came back into the fandom so when I saw the SS version, I was unimpressed how small he is (didn't know the smaller size are the new standard) to the mainline version so I never got him.

    You didn't technically do anything wrong by the wheels, at least according to the instructions, because the wheels and most of the upper arm transformation isn't in the instructions, I remember this shit somehow. Also you can relax on the "chalking it up to being used" because I got mine sealed at a yard sale, very awkwardly taped together with sealed deluxe starscream, (very slightly regret not getting the sideswipe soundwave combo) and it took only like 2 weeks for mine to manifest very similar defects, mine has a doubly floppy shoulder on just one side, the head likes to split from the ball joint, various chips and gouges in the plastic abound, and the wheels have rusted pins because my sister hid it in the yard for a few days Also those little panels on the insides of the shins, those also move, that however CAN be chalked up to misremembering the instructions

    I always found it annoying that, despite it kind of being their whole thing in the movie, none of the toys released during DOTM had a complete set of fully weaponized Wreckers in alt-mode. With the deluxes it was Roadbuster, Human Alliance had Leadfoot (not to mention HA didn't even get Topspin), and with Cyberverse (not that one) it was Topspin. And yeah I know Roadbuster can do the thing where his rocket pods can fold out in car mode but that doesn't count.
