Picked up Delux Wreckage yesterday. Great fig. Love the blades. But I can't seem to make his head transform correctly. He's constantly looking down. Anyone else found this? Or am I just Transforming him incorrectly.

Yes, i noticed that as well, ... and altered mine already. Removed some of the obstructive kibble behind the head/neck, then filed the heads' neck hole to allow greater upward/backward articulation.

Just the way it's made.

Not good if that's how he's made is it? Was he a bit rushed into production maybe?
Thanks for the suggestion Smuggles!

if you play around with the posing he is fine but yeah stand him up right and he tends to look down... no biggie for me

Nah, it's not too bad, his blades make up for it! Pose him right and he just looks like he's glowering all evil like. Just difficult to make him look side to side.

One of my fav Movie figs... After seeing the original concept Art, his paint deco was much darker...
Wonder if he gets repainted next year?
If not , I still enjoy this little guy... Great Decepticon warrior!

I don't recall seeing concept art for him on that website (was it supposed to be the mobile howitzer one?).

Crap, now I have to try and find Wreckage now, too. Sounds like a cool one I've overlooked.

This is a good fix for a few different TFs, movie and otherwise.

Yep, I did it! Just take your exacto and gently file down the back of his head... The red plastic...
Even slice off the back of his "brim" on his helmet. The mod works fine. Not full movement but atleast he can look straight ahead!
Great deluxe Decepticon. I'm ready for the green Stryker repaint... Ha! Time will tell...

Actually he is supposed to have legs like Daemons! Give him a "GoatLeg" shape and he looks straight ahead and fits with the aestetic more, it also makes his upper body look more streamlined.
