Helloooooooooo!!! So, today we will take a look at a figure from 2011.
We will see Dark Of The Moon Crankcase. He was a member of the Dreads.
As you can see I have part of the box, I don't have the whole box because I bought him used.
So, yea, ok, here we have Crankcase.
This is part of the box. Dark Of The Moon.
Crankcase. Chevy Suburban. You see him in both of his modes.
A small bio over here.
And of course he comes with the instructions, here they are.
Complicated transformation for a deluxe class figure.
And here you see the reverse transformation.
So let's see the figure from close now.
So this is Crankcase. Very movie accurate I would say.
He looked like this in the movie, sort of.
He has two light-bars up here. Painted rear lights. Headlights are also painted.
He has a sculpted Chevy logo here but unfortunately it is not painted.
He also has a Decepticon symbol over here. Black windows.
No license-plates. He also comes with this Mechtech weapon.
By pushing this lever backwards a claw comes out.
As for storage place, he has two holes here, you can place it up here.
And it will look like this now.
The only thing that I don't like in this mode are these holes here, I don't like holes on the figures.
They could use the spring-loaded system but unfortunately they didn't do it.
And you have these annoying... horns, if I could call them like this, this is a little bit loose so it falls down sometimes.
They are made of rubber material. You can also open them and use them as a weapon, like this.
Though, even with these pieces underneath, the vehicle rolls fine. So let's see a size comparison now.
Here he is next to Revenge Of The Fallen Sideways. As you can see, Sideways is a little bit bigger than Crankcase.
I am bringing in Human Alliance Barricade as well, it's a bigger figure.
So let's transform Crankcase in his robot mode.
First, disconnect this piece from here and bring it up like this.
Fold out the legs. We will try to disconnect the front side from here.
Bring these bits up so they won't bother us.
Disconnect the arms from here. This piece poped-out but ok, it goes back easily.
Disconnect the legs. Open the chest from here. Bring the arms up.
Bring this piece down, like this. You think it's gonna break, but it won't break.
Bring Crankcase's head up.
He has two pegs here, they connect with these holes here.
Bring his crotch up.
Rotate the legs to the other side.
Disconnect this piece from here.
Actually no, slide the wheel inwards, it has a sliding bar here so slide it inwards.
Put it in here and then bring the foot downwards. One leg is ready.
Slide the wheel inwards.
And bring the foot downwards. The legs are ready.
Now the arms. Bring them down. Open the hands from here.
Bring these panels upwards. Bring the wheels upwards.
Finally, rotate these bits like this and close this piece backwards.
Make him stand.
And Crankcase is ready in his robot mode.
So this is Crankcase. Well, I have mixed feelings about him.
First of all I like how they did his head, he has very nice details.
You see how nice they did his head, I also like very much his dreadlocks.
Also, his chest has very nice sculpted details.
But other than that the figure has loose joints, especially on the legs he is very loose!
Also, this piece here is very loose, it falls down. You can barely keep it up.
Crankcase didn't have these horns in the movie but you can bring them down to hide them if you want.
As for his articulation, his head can look up, it cannot look down. It can turn left and right.
He also has light-piping, as you can see he has red transparent plastic here.
As for these horns, you can rotate them, you can bring them back, you can do whatever you want with them.
His arms are on ball-joints so they can rotate 360 degrees, they can move up and down.
They bend at the elbow, they rotate at this point of the arm.
The hands can move inwards due to the transformation, they are also made of rubber material.
The horns are made of rubber material, the dreadlocks also.
The legs are also on ball-joints, they can move back and forth, up and down.
They rotate at the thighs, they bend at this point of the leg, they can also bend at the knee.
And the foot can move up and down due to the transformation. Normal articulation for a deluxe class figure.
As for weapon storage you can use these two holes here, he cannot hold the gun by his hands, it falls down.
So, you can only use these holes.
You cannot store the gun on his back, only in these holes on his arms.
So, let's see a size comparison now.
Here he is next to a deluxe class figure, Dark Of The Moon Topspin
and next to a voyager class figure Human Alliance Roadbuster. As you understand, Crankcase is a deluxe class figure.
Here he is next to Nitro Zeus and next to Berserker. These two figures look alike very much.
They are not the same mold though. They look alike but they're not the same mold.
Final thoughts... it's not a bad figure but not very good either! It has good articulation for a deluxe class figure.
Unfortunately it has many loose joints but most of them are fixable.
The transformation is easy but if you transform him from the robot mode to the vehicle mode the transformation is annoying.
If you want a member of the Dreads, it's the only figure we have so far.
Thank you all for watching, see you in the next video, bye!
