Glad to add another member to the batch. I wish I could say I was a little more enthusiastic here, but the figure does have a few issues for me, very minor but...

Wish it were possible to get more dynamic poses here, but the armor's design is the perfect example of a character/figure from an animation design that can allow more "cheating" to achieve it's movement in the animation without sacrificing it's aesthetic. Unfortunately, the figure has to make the tough choice of one or the other and the "look" of the figure wins. And it does look great, no doubt. It's just very limited in expressive posing. Wrecker is a brawling, forceful brute that begs for dynamic action poses that are just not possible here, so the result is a muted version of the Batch's muscle for display. Add to that the vacant expression on the (well-rendered) head sculpt and the figure just lacks the character's presence. Thankfully, those qualities won't stand out so much when he's helmeted and included with the rest of the Batch on display.

No regrets with the purchase, just a little let down. Still looking forward to Tech's release to round the group out. A rare thing indeed when it comes to HT.
 
Was just thinking about it today, certainly HT has more plans for that larger body. Would be a shame if they didn’t use it for Durge or Savage Opress. Heck even the Wookiee from BOBF
Durge (og 2003 realistic version) would be amazing. I think HT won't do such things though. Maybe some large Marvel character will make use of the body
 
Popcultcha now shipping Wrecker. Also now sold out at Popcultcha and like Crosshair the page is now an error result. That's weird since I see SS still has Wrecker. Glad I got my Tech PO in.

Got my notification also


Luckily I got Crosshair during a trip to China last year otherwise would have a noticeable gap in the lineup. Now just need to secure a Tech.


If HT could do imperial crosshair, Gen1 TK and republic commando that would be nice
 
Definitely want a figure of the TK Stormtroopers. I like the helmet design and was hoping HT would make them, but it doesn't seem like they're making anyone besides the main team.

The poncho thing they're wearing in ep 4 looked cool
