Just make sure the slots line up and the seat is clipped in..

If you look at the pics you will see the difference between him and Grove. It's not a big deal it just doesn't match up in alt mode

I checked and you are right. The elbows are swapped compared to groove on mine. Doesn't affect anything so I just swapped the arms the elbows go with to match groove.

The image I uploaded should show a better example. For Groove the empty space on the mold is on the outside of the arm while for Wreckgar it is on the inside.

I think the "misassembly" is deliberate, just to make him different and seen like a mish mash of junk parts cobbled together. Also, anyone have a clue how to store that axe thing other than on his bloody handle? I have seen it done but no clue how it was accomplished.

I would disagree only because the packaging both front at back plus the instructions actually show the grey parts being the "right" way but you never know. I did switch them around last night to make them look like the aforementioned packaging, instructions and mold mates

How did you get them off? I'm trying and having no luck. Don't want to damage them.




Also is his head really small or is it just me?

It's a tough connection but I wriggled them off the mushroom pegs and yeah his head is a bit small. I really want to find a way to mod the head and make him Nancy I think her name is. Just to have the female Junkion

Have you checked out Shapeways.com ? I was just on there and they have a Nancy homage Head meant for Transformers Prime Arcee for like $10. It looks like it may work on this Wreck-Gar deluxe.
