So far we have seen Demolishor and Rampage released. Now, the 3rd Constructicon is making his way to the stores. Mixmaster returns after a long hiatus and brings with him a third battle mode. See how this figure stacks up by reading this review.

Jonesin' for this bastard! Yeah, I scratch my head at that battle mode as well...still wondering if I can create a partial Dev head (maybe lower jaw portion) out of this so-called battle mode, and then sculp the rest?

Another nice review. MM is as good as bought. The alt mode is lovely, and the bot mode has a whole hell of a lot going for it...really nice, alien, creepy look to it, kind of like '07 Bonecrusher, really driving home the concept of robots in disguise. The battle emplacement mode sucks, but then again, most of those transitional modes tend to suck anyways.

I've already grabbed him and the review is pretty spot on, but I'm pleased with him and have had fun adjusting everything to make him look as best as he can, plus he's the best looking of the constructicons so far. I recommend him to anyone who was thinking about getting him.

I love this figure, I think its one of the best of the line so far. Its a shame that Im going to have to take him back. After looking at this review I noticed that mine is missing those little red thigh guards. This is the third one in this line that Im going to have to take back due to missing or broken parts.

Found him finally, and I like him quite a bit (although I think a full body paintjob might put him over the top and make him pefect- I may have to try).

 

Mine may be defective as well, I can't tell. When you fold up the cab transforming him into robot mode- one of the joints folds the opposite way from the directions. But the tab still does fit and hold the cab in place- so I'm unsure if it's an error in directions, or if they assembled mine wrong.

 

It's the last joint under the cab before the bumper. Any thoughts?

 

BTW- I am able to pose him using his shields in a manner very similar to the cg render we saw a while back!

Mine has the same problem with the cab hinge like you mentioned and I think it is an assembly error, I just push out the pin and flipped it around. It's just a pain finding something small enough to push out the pin with.

I love Mixmaster, he's really impressive. One thing I disliked with him is his inward bowed thumb. So I flipped it around to make his clutches more menacing :P
