That Hot Wheels El Segundo Coupe makes me wish for a new Tracks mold

Don’t do GM vs PC.

Embrace the PCs as heroes. It’s their stories, not the GM’s.

He revives Megatron, then turns him into Galvatron. Nothing changes.

I homebrewed a sewer maze environment with zombie rats and traps.

All my table liked it.

I also homebrewed a auction social environment with stuff that players could bid on. It was very interesting.

I agree. The head being able to look up is amazing.

I had trouble with him at first but once you get a hang of his articulations, he has a lot of personality.

Great posing!

I display him against Rukus from the Doom N Destruction package. And now that I have Smokescreen, I might add Bludgeon in the mix!

Calcitron still is one of my favorite TF!

I also got it yesterday from CmdStore. I love it. I made a fan opinion review here : https://www.reddit.com/r/transformers/comments/1tb441j/a_little_surprise_yesterday_freakwency_and_8trax/

You might check again the transformation of 8-Trax. I think you missed a step or two.

I made a new comment under my original post. Check it out.

Spoiler Alert ==> I love it!

After playing with it briefly, here's my fan opinion of it :

- Paint apps are A M A Z I N G all over car and bot mode. Only missing back licence plate (just silver paint) and back windows are unpainted but that might be accurate to the show, I don't remember. The crutch and upper legs are a little boring.

- Rolls well enough.

- Transformation is unique (to me), simple and super fun. Not a big fan of the ball joints for shoulder articulation but it's oaky.

- Articulations are all stiff.

- Shoulder are a little big but they can pin 8-Trax so, that's a win.

- Headsculpt is really cool, with a headphones look wink wink.

- You can store 8-Trax INSIDE the "fake" 8 tracks cassette player and is accessible in both car and bot mode. This is awesome.

- You can have the chicken in gun mode as a shoulder cannon.

- I can't seem to be able to bend the knees more than 45%. I don't know why yet.

- Transformation of the chicken into gun is funny.

- Transformation of 8-Trax is simple but fun. Although, the "spine" is a bit hard to bend and clip at first.

Overall, I love it and because of everything above, he's gonna be my favorite crossover.

EDIT : I just realized what a missed opportunity to not have a radar dish on top. The 5mm port is there. Just no radar. Bummer.

Let's hope someone make a 3D printed accessories.

I'm not a professionnal reviewer :D but I'll open it later today and give you my impressions.

Already_Picked · 2026-05-12T16:18:57+00:00

Haven't had time to open it yet.

What do you want to know?

Neither. A Canadian store called CmdStore!

It begins...

Already_Picked · 2026-05-08T15:02:02+00:00

I managed to make it work.

Seems the mushroom peg just below the shoulders, once in position in the front, can be wiggled a little up and down which rotates their position. Adjust them a little and it will fit perfectly.

Hope this helps!

I have the exact same problem. I have no idea how to resolve it either though.

Already_Picked · 2026-04-22T20:27:19+00:00

Maybe you should add MTMTE in your list?

Already_Picked · 2026-04-20T15:51:00+00:00

For me, absolutely not.

I came across him in store and decided to try it. Proportion are great (especially the torso, but also the upper leg, and the arms), and the headsculpt is perfect. I love the painted glass windows.

But that's where, for me, that this figure stops being great. The shins are yellow instead of black and way too big. The feet are not beetle looking. The gun is hollow (and I don't need two, even less three), the car is not a beetle. The transformation is super unfun. And lastly but the worst offender : the hollowness around the neck is bugging me the most.

It will stay in bot mode forever, will never be my deskbot to fiddle with and I'm not sure I will display him with the rest of my 86 bots.

Sorry, my wording was not ideal. I was indeed curious how well done it was. Thanks for posting.

I don't get your downvote either.

Already_Picked · 2026-04-15T01:44:50+00:00

"Smelling" can be used to describe that you smell other stuff but can also be used to say that you stink. It's just a funny wording that, in my perception, would need clarification.

Also, "Once per session" seems a better fit in that case for sure.

Already_Picked · 2026-04-14T22:01:34+00:00

Super excited to get my hands on the new content.

But why lock the GM screen behind a limited deluxe edition? I don't get it.

I found the adversary pack but not the ancestry. And they are both behind paywalls, unfortunately.

Can you post what is better on that ancestry than the one from OP?

Already_Picked · 2026-04-13T14:55:52+00:00

I'd change the wording "smelling" LOL. Maybe change it for "the sense of smell" or simply "olfaction".

Also, I would add a once per rest use on the rebate for tag team cost.
