Re: Looking for Xtransbots Ollie (aka G1 Wheelie)
Can I just suggest waiting for the Titan's Returns Legends version? I mean, if you really want Ollie, good luck, but I HEAR he is terrible and falls apart...but don't take my word for it, it is heresay.

Yea - was thinking about picking up the Titan Return's figure when it comes out but unfortunately it doesn't scale with MP figures.
I also heard about his issues with falling apart, loose joints, stress marks, but I would just keep him in robot mode in a display case.
I guess he's just aesthetically pleasing to look at like Daca Toys Kronos aka G1 Skyfire / Jetfire.

Do not order from acetoy or tf toy.
I had nightmare experience with them. Ordered a misb ko scorponok and wheeljack and all he sent me was a used scorponok incomplete. I eventually got visa to get the funds back but I'm out return shipping.

Don't order from those sites they will screw you up big time. I ordered a KO Prime from the acetoy site took 5 months to get and paid a small fortune for shipping. Another bad site is kotoys.net avoid them too I ordered a ko scorponok and never got it. I have an Ollie but he is not for sale. He is a great little figure I have no problems with mine. The only issue with him is his legs are loose but that is due to his transformation.

Same for me. I've heard a lot of negative comments about Ollie, but besides the loose legs I haven't had any problems and it still looks great next to Magnus and Rodimus.

Sometimes I wonder if perception of a figure gets distorted based on the people that have a bad experience vs. those that don't. We have a tendency to voice our displeasure much more than our positive/neutral experiences.

Get the die-cast version instead, it's cheaper, sturdier, nicer, and it can pull off both the toy and cartoon robot modes.
