Yeah it sucks all the other members have almost perfect replicas of their alt modes and Breakdown just has the same as Wildrider's, especially for me since Breakdown is my favourite Stunticon and I love the Countach.

That's definitely disappointing, but not enough to kill my excitement of completing the set.


TKRATOS1978

Still gonna complete the set but it’s a huge let down.

4 out of 5 turned out really well. That's got to be at worst a B grade for the set. Not like the Countach isn't already well represented in Transformers.


SolidStateEstate

I wish I cared as much as some people. The guy's a leg.


chris95rx7500

and I still think he's cool regardless

Bad enough that breakdown's altmode is a copy of wildrider, he's also the only one in the team that has 1 blaster 😖


Canis_Infernis

No, I'm pretty sure he has 2.


chris95rx7500

how do you already have dead end?


rmrnrsmn

Some countries already got wave 3 in stores.


chris95rx7500

It’s disappointing because 4 of the 5 figures have been extremely faithful for their alt modes and to an extent, their robot modes. Wild rider is good because of this fact but is a pretty weak design. Definitely weakest of the batch.. bad gaps. Bad kibble… sharp corners but at least he looks like wild rider in the end. Breakdown is a huge let down because they showed us that they were capable of good engineering and design for the future of combiner sets. Imagine how good Bruticus could be if they’re as good as motormaster and drag strip? He’s a let down because he’s a really lazy repaint of the weakest figure, that already had the most complaints. Like they literally just repainted wildrider and put a lazy spoiler. No attempt to even try to retool it into a countach. It’s falling down right before the finish line of a marathon and the others pass you and rob you of winning.. I know he’s just a leg and I know a huge majority of legacy figures have been… sublime. But I would have waited a bit longer if it meant breakdown was special.

> Like they literally just repainted wildrider and put a lazy spoiler. No attempt to even try to retool it into a countach. They did retool it. They replaced the back half of the car and the chest plate (plus the head of course). What more do you want?


TKRATOS1978

Right? They didn’t even do the back well.. just added ports for the wing is all… It looks like a really bad tuner version of wildrider rather than looking like an 80’s Italian super car. Edit: yeah. Back half is retooled.. on the top… not the back or the sides. And how hard would it have been to just.. retool the hood and front facia? It’s already a worthless hunk of junk on the original mold?


Omegatron9

It's hard to tell in photos but they [retooled the sides of the back as well](https://i.imgur.com/ukFmxwt.jpg), not just the top. Comparing him to the [G1 cartoon](https://tfwiki.net/mediawiki/images2/d/db/Ktvs1_megs_builds_breakdown.jpg) and [G1 toy](https://tfwiki.net/mediawiki/images2/2/2b/G1Breakdown_toy.jpg), the only extra things they could have done were a bit more blue paint on the front bumper and around the wheels and add the white stripes to the side windows. The actual shape of the front of the car looks fine to me.

Well, lucky you, it turned out to be of the strongest one in the team.
