This is one of those rare occasions where I ordered a figure with zero expectations (other than to serve as Defensor's leg), and was actually blown away. As a note, you have the leg guns misconfigured in bot mode - there is a second set of fold-out pegs on the calves.
I got this and it is really good. I had the same nitpicks with the transformation and the neck. I generally have kept the head at half mass and that seems pretty good overall.
I got rid of my X Transbots Grove after the MMC Figure came in But I hope he does a comparison with xTransbots Grove. , lets see his thoughts of the 2 are
Hey Bobby, I do have a quick question that could be something of a Sit down Saturday or maybe 4 dummies: What’s your personal takes on the current run of transformers? Specifically that of Skybounds Transformers. As well as another question: Would you think it would be a smart business move or even for collecting purposes to invest mainly Fans toys? Cuz I’m seeing recently now, not many are scalping Fanstoys apart from the dinobots as well as Fanstoys Willis (oddly). But I just wanted to ask those. Have a happy holidays to you and yours.
I don’t like it one bit that that there isn’t kind of alloy, die-cast or whatever in this piece in particular critical parts such as handlebars and mirrors. To have die-cast on the feet would be nice as well. That being said the sculpt is nice. After I’m finished with this combiner I’m out on MMC products meaning I’m not buying anymore and the reason is no diecast particularly on critical parts and feet
I was too harsh on my 1st thoughts with this, in part as my stock face was scratched But the real reason is I got this the same day as FT Magnus. This is an accomplished figure, with higher than average paint for the brand and great playability. But it didn't make me feel like the Magnus did despite its flaws, and it shouldn't need to. It's not a fair comparison. This is going to have a stint as my desk bot for sure.
I feel like Groove is really difficult to pull off, and it looks like they nailed it.
Probably the best Groove design I've seen. Not saying much cause personally Groove's always been kinda silly. Groovy.

Wasn't exited to get it and now is one of my favorites 3P figures. The motorcycle mode is brilliant!
Stoked for this and getting a step closer to completed combined mode
How has no one named a third party Groove either Estrada or Ponch yet?
Top 10 figure of the year for sure

That upcoming video looking ominous af
If you utilize one knee bend, then the other you can get a double jointed range from it
There's tabs behind the sattle bags that fold out for the guns to sit higher on the legs in bot mode.
there is more than 90 degree knee bend. i saw it. should be noted. thx for vid! I'm all in for OX Bobby!
I've never bought a 3rd party bot and i reckon its about time i did

I love think it's a bullhorn. I think it is a liquid nitrogen emitter from that one episode
Impatiently waiting on Blades.

Your loss. Die-cast is not the end-all and be-all.
Insert this? What kind of name is that?lol😅😅😂
